"Maybe I have been pretty lucky, I saw many ppl complaints about waiting time and customer service. I only order delivery and pick up in store, so far so good. There was only one time I ordered 3 beef tongue taco, I think they ran out, they gave me 4 beef tacos, so I didn’t complained. Other than that, usually food was good and ready on time."

"Ate here with my mother 1/15/26. Ordered the Birria tacos and it was so delicious. Staff was friendly and restrooms were surprisingly nice and clean. But probably one of the best Birria tacos I've had in a while. Definitely will return."

"It was our first time there. As a rule whenever we go to a new restaurant we always order a favorite item that we either make at home or get from another eatery. I can safely say that this restaurant nailed the flavors down. My allergies were acting up that night and they were still coming through. The food is served fresh and the staff is super friendly and bilingual, so even if you don't speak spanish you can still get in here and order some delicious food. Trust me, it's awesome!"
