This place was phenomenal! Some of the freshest salsa I’ve ever had. The chicken in the street taco was tender and perfectly seasoned. All three of my tacos were tasty. My friend ordered the fajita nachos and they looked spectacular. Staff was helpful, courteous, and prompt. Will definitely try again sometime.

Food was very good...service was excellent. Icey cold Coke in bottles was wonderful. Worth the convoluted drive to get there.

WARNING--HIGHLY ADDICTIVE!! I've ate at a lot of Mexican restaurants in and around Knoxville, but this one is the closest to actually eating tacos in Mexico. This is located in the back of a Mexican Market so don't be confused when you pull up. They have great stuff to browse through and tons of Mexican sodas, grocery items, and much more. The Pastor con Pina tacos are seriously life changing. The tacos are served with cilantro and onions as well as a lime on the side. Besides the tacos, I recommend the chicken chimichanga (with grilled chicken) and the nachos fajita mix. I literally haven't had a bad thing here. Plus they have the Mexican Coke in glass bottles, which is my favorite. Tips: They give you your ticket at the table and you pay up front. They can split your check at the register. It's seat yourself.

This is some of the best authentic Mexican food. This place is a hidden jewel.I'm so glad I found this place. It is a Mexican grocery store Deli and Restaurant all in one. It is very clean and the people here are very nice.it was a amazing experience and amazing food. They give you a lot for your money. In my opinion they have a lot of Mexican restaurants beat hands down for super authentic Mexican food😁😁🌮🌯🍻

One of my favorite places for Mexican cuisine. Everything is always fresh and delicious. I can fill up for under 10 dollars and leave extremely satisfied. Has been a favorite of mine for many years. I highly recommend the tacos (of all kinds) and the tostada de ceviche.

FOOD IS AMAZING. Staff is super sweet. For authentic Mexican tacos or food, this is the best place for real food. I typically get two chicken tacos and they are always good!
