This place is real. The tacos de pastor include pineapple which is what pastor is supposed to come with since it is marinated in it. The street corn is delicious as well. It's not your street vendor's nameless brand mayo but its good. The tortas are delicious as well. Try a chorizo one and change your life.

7/10 for the tacos. Made authentic style with flat top meat that has great flavor and they are very generous. Typical onions and cilantro topping but just the prepacked tortillas, otherwise it would be an 8. The value is good. The beef and al pastor are $3 a piece and you only need two tacos to be full. The Guac is flavorless, so don't bother. Jalapeno margarita is good. Stop in before a game or just when you really want a fulfilling taco.

Authentic Mexican food in the of Houston. Many of the dishes such as Charales or quesadillas de huitlacoche are excellent. I had not seen them in another Houston restaurant menu! Great experience and reasonably priced!

I love this place! Has parking and it's always the less crowded spot for black hawks games at the united center. Great food and freshly made margaritas
