    I only noticed this tucked away gem as it was across from my hotel window hidden from most foot traffic. While it worked to my advantage of getting immediate seating it means many people will miss out on the incredible food. I had the birria soup and a mole and mushroom tacos and my girlfriend had the Mexican chicken soup. We split an order of guacamole and it was all amazing! These words cannot convey how good all this food was. We will both be talking for a long time about how good this place is.

    For $20 bucks I got a soda and 3 of the best tacos I've had since I left Texas a decade ago and they were in front of me before I'd had my 5th tortilla chip. Great little place just bit off the beaten path for folks in town for work.

    I really loved the taco flights! Good deal for 10 dollars. Above Birria, Cecina and pastor my favorite was Birria. Highly recommended. I also like they give totopos and salsa verde and roja.
