Tacos were Good! But the compliment to tacos is a great salsa, and their salsa was not fresh or good, limes were old also. Agua de Pepino was delish! Baked potato was well cooked, but too much butter.

My husband found this place on social media and highly recommended. It was just ok. The quesobirria was better than anything else we ordered. The place is not very big but the people behind the counter were pleasant. I was not impressed with flavors or choices other than the big baked potato stuffed with your meat option. That’s a bit more different than most Mexican restaurants.

I really enjoyed this place. Went with some coworkers for lunch and everyone enjoyed what they got. Several folks got the quesadillas. I got the quesadilla especial. The papa Asad is gargantuan. Priced really well. Nice 90s dance music and chill atmosphere. The host was super cordial and answered questions about the menu and made suggestions. The hirchata was especially good. I'll definitely be back.
