I biked past them two years ago and the line out the door was crazy. Thankfully today I was able to pop in without a fuss and their burrito mojado was worth the wait. Put a little extra salsa on top that was available by the counter. No fatty pieces (went with asada) and it wasn’t full of fillers either. Friendly and efficient staff. Great experience…especially when you’ve been craving something to really sink your teeth into!

I normally don’t write reviews but I had to this time.. I’m soo shocked that this place can even charge for what they gave us. For the record, I LOVE this taqueria it’s delicious every time but since covid they skimp! We ordered a side of rice and beans and when we opened the container they gave us literally a handful of each. The containers cost more for them than the food inside! So we called to let them know and the lady really said that’s how it comes.. they only give 3-4oz of rice/beans but charge $4 each. I mean rice and beans are the cheapest thing they serve so I would expect to get enough for at least 3 people to have as a side. I’ve been going to this place for years and never had an experience like this. It’s a shame but I won’t be giving them my business anymore.

Building and parking lot looks, well… Old and antiquated with an uneasy feeling that it’s not quite as clean as it should be.
The inside is big with plenty of inside seating, music playing making me want to say I I I epha epha, berrrrr-ah-ha!!! “That is not a dig at the Business, I really enjoyed the music”. You order at one end of the building and pick up at the other. I ordered a El Pastor Super burrito $9.99 + avocado extra $1.00 in mandarin Jarritos soda $3.50 “total $16 ish”
The burrito is huge but the meat was not juicy as I would expect from El Pastor. Also, strangely 1/2 the burrito was room temp, the cheese, avocado and other cold ingredients were on one side and the meat, rice and beans on the other. It reminded me of an old McDonald’s commercial to keep the hot side hot in the cold side cold except in a bad way. Overall the burrito was meh and it came back up so I could revisit the flavors within an hour.

The staff is friendly and the food was amazing! My husband's Ameca burrito was HUGE!! Fed us a couple of times 😁 the tortilla was on the thicker side and seemed a little under cooked, but nothing a bit of heating on our griddle.
I can't wait to visit again!

Good mexican food, spice but good enough

my dad brought me here because it reminds him of the taquerias in mexico which is difficult to find here. all the employees were so friendly and welcoming. almost felt like we were all friends. we were able to get a sample of the jamaica and horchata (everyone makes it differently so i wanted to test it out). they were a little too sweet but we added water and it was delicious.

This is one of my favorite places to go for Mexican food the tortilla is hand made and the flavors are amazing.
One of the the items I always get is the tripa or tripe tacos well done with grilled onions andcheese. I can almost taste it just thinking about it.
