So, here it is... My wife and I are from California, Salinas to be specific, and we love great homemade Mexican food! Coming to Tucson Arizona, we were not ready for the surprise! Street tacos are amazing, but street tacos made with heart and flare...ARE the best! This place is authentic, the vibe is trendy and legit, the employees are on point, and the drinks...whether you try the half watermelon/cucumber with limonada, the fresh made horchata, or the michelada with chamoy, it will ALL hit the tastebuds perfectly! Did we mention that the tacos "street style" are the way tacos were meant to be enjoyed?! Prices are reasonable...why settle for boring food and beer? You need to COME ON BY (when you are in town)!!!! �����
One of my new favorite places to come eat!! New to tucson area and only place that didn't disappoint! Friendly and great staff!! There street tacos are AMAZING!! There burritos even BETTER!! New favorite place to eat!!♡�
1st time at this location and I will definitely be back. Went before Dusk Music Festival downtown and this was the perfect spot to grab dinner and drinks. Limited bar but no complaints. Food was delicious as always and the staff was super kind and accommodating.
Fun spot to get a quick bite. Street tacos were simple yet so delicious. All the guys working were helpful and fun. They seemed to enjoy providing for their customers. Carnitas were my favorite, flavorful and tender. Fish tacos were the favorite of the others in my group. Adding the toppings on our own was fun. The red hot salsa burned so good. Picked red onions weren’t as flavorful as I expected but still added a nice texture. Chips were perfect, not greasy. Will be back next time I visit.
The food was fantastic. Too much to eat, but so tasty! I simply had water. The line moved steadily, but not rapidly. A busy Friday night, and TWO guys behind the counter, taking orders, making the food and taking the cash. There was a separate bartender, but again only one. There is a whole lot of hustle and positive energy in that place! Seating is both inside & out, with customers, clearing their own tables when done eating. As you can see in the photo, plenty of folks know just what to do!
Will definitely go again! Loved the fish taco & a bite of chicken Quesadilla!
Good place for a quick bite. Gets a little crowded, but thats cause the food is bomb as hell. They have a patio if you have a dog. Great bang for your buck, and the salsa bar with free tortilla chips is a big win for us folks on a budget. Music selection is weird. Like, it's often flamenco or something almost cubano. Would like a little more variety in the tunes tbh.
Everything about this experience was amazing. I knew this would be a slam dunk the moment a car was backing out right as we were trying to find parking. We went on a Saturday evening and we walked right up to the counter. Super easy ordering process and free chips when you spend $5 or more. I decided on getting the pollo asado torta with everything on it and it was simply immaculate. The bread was super soft and the chicken was seasoned/grilled phenomenally. The bestie got fish tacos and chips and guac, and she loved her items too. The chips we got were not too salty and were some of the crispiest chips I've ever had. They weren't hard at all so you didn't feel like you were crunching down on the hardest chip either. I would recommend this place to EVERYONE! I was surprised there weren't more people there when we went because of how good everything was.
We're from out of town, we went 2 days in a row. We love how they make the tacos and other food right there on the grill in front of us, street style. Tacos, torta, street dog, watermelon water, everything was yummy.
Update review: Sunday it's 5:45 pm and they are closed. Bad business, theu need to update their Google info.
AMAZING. Casual understated but authentic and everything was incredible. The chips and ,salsa bar, all the sauces are great. Honestly possibly the best Mexican food we ever had. Rueben was our server, he is fantastic. Steet dog was unbelievable.
Burritos shreeded beef was beautiful. Great value.
Reuben was absolutely amazing!! He is so heartfelt and super helpful. The atmosphere and food quality was superb. Don’t miss this place if you love tacos and homemade chips with great salsas! And the watermelon and cucumber juice was refreshing and so yummy!
This is not just a taco joint, this is an experience! Be ready to order when you come to the counter because assembly is fast and efficient! Lucas will be ready to greet you with a smile and make all your street taco dreams come true! Make sure to read the menu thoroughly, anything labeled "garnished with" will come with those items items automatically. The food is fresh and gives Chipotle a run for it's money. Drinks available are fresh aqua frescas', fountain sodas, and beer. There is a free chip and salsa bar with many different salsas to choose from mild to hot. Seating is plentiful inside and outside on the patio. If you come for dinner or happy hour there is a beer bar with a great selection and some beer on tap as well. Bathrooms are a single room and clean with modern fixtures. If you're hungry for authentic tacos don't pass up this downtown staple.
Probably a 4 in terms of being an amazing place to eat, but factor in the price and the great quality of the food, and this place is a 5. Had 3 different kinds of $3 tacos (shredded beef, al pastor, and fish) and all were excellent. House made chips free with meal and also great. Bar with some local beers. Indoor dining plus small outdoor patio. Great place to grab a quick bite.
