What a great find! We stopped in on the recommendation of a couple friends and we glad we did! The warm green chili (delicious btw) that was served with the salsa and chips was a great touch. Not only was it good green chili, it went nice dipping the chips in! We shared a 5 taco plate (3chorizo, 2 alpastor), 13$....makes it a touch over 2.5$ a taco...and included either guacamole or sliced avocado on them. For the metro, that's a great price....and I will say...Quality! We also shared an Asada Fries. Very tasty, lots of cheese for that long cheese pull, soft and flavorful steak, and smothered in that delicious green chili....almost too much as it did dog out the fries quickly....we still scraped the plate!!! We had a nice chat with a man, I think the owner....very nice man! We will return and tell all our friends!

Found this place when looking for a lunch spot while running errands. Gotta say the food is next level amazing, some of the best Mexican food I have had around town. The guacamole and the horchata were made fresh for me when I went there last. I highly recommend this place for someone who wants good no drills food.

I’m visiting a friend here and we came for lunch and it was so good! Two of us had the burrito and our friend had the tacos! You want to know how good it was? (See the picture)

Great street tacos at an unbeatable price! 5 tacos for $12 is an amazing deal. The tacos scream freshness, with everything made in-house. You are greeted warmly at the door and the great service continues throughout the experience. I got the chicken and al-pastor tacos and they were fantastic. So fresh and dynamic, each bite was an experience. The house made salsas are all so fun, with one having meat in it. Really recommend this spot and I look forward to coming back!
