"I just try Tacos and those were good. You can choose ribs, maciza and more. The place is not fancy but the service is good. I will prefer order to go because the place is very small"

"All the tacos are outstanding! The carnitas is moist and flavorful; the Chicharrón is crispy with tender meat; the birria is complex and rich. All the toppings are phenomenal. The portions of the tacos are very generous (like 2 normal tacos) so bring an appetite. Luis and his family are generous and kind hosts."
