    I bet you read the reviews for this place and thought this was a no brainer. Unfortunately, I’m here to let you down. Maybe it was an off night but this place was not it. We ordered the two vegan tacos, elote fries, fish tacos, and onion rings. The vegan tacos had measly portions, to say the least. it was all shell and no filling. Unfortunately, we thought, “hey can’t go wrong with onion rings” wrong. Soft and undercooked. I guess the fish tacos and elote fries were okay. Although the elote fries might have just been called “french fries with some roasted corn sprinkled on top”. Mostly we’re upset that we spent so much money for the most mediocre food we’ve had in a while. Unsure why the reviews are so glowing.

    Excellent! The Sonoran dog would make Güero Canelo jealous (you have to be from Tucson to understand!) The Vampiro tacos were amazing! Fresh salsa is great. Definitely be back for a Texan Quesadilla! Mmmm!

    When you pull up to a place and they're advertising hot dogs and quesadillas on their front window you might be skeptical like I was. But go in and order the mushroom tacos or anything from their vegan menu. It's from scratch and very good.

    Open till 4pm. Got here at 3:30pm. All chairs were up on tables, kitchen closed. Asked if I could still order to take away and was told no, kitchen closed, register closed. I can see this is a pattern from a previous review where they closed 45 minutes early & the reply from the business was “our team is happy to serve you during business hours.” This is a blatant lie - I’m sitting here at 3:36pm and you refused an order, closed down an hour ago. You’re not “open till 4”, you closed your kitchen at 3pm. Made a special trip to come back here visiting home (having flown in from London) only to leave empty handed and disappointed. Bad customer service from the man inside just shrugging when I asked why they claim to be open till 4. Don’t bother & will not bother again myself.
