Best tacos I’ve had in a long time!
The pastor was absolutely delicious! well seasoned and full of flavor. The carne asada was tender and grilled perfectly.
The portions are generous for the price, everything tasted fresh and authentic, and the service was great and friendly.
Will definitely be back!

My husband and I work some day at night and pass this place on our way home. We stopped in last night and it was delicious. I got the carne asada quesadilla. So good we came back again tonight and this time I tried the chorizo. It is so good. The cheese is perfect, plenty of meat and flovor. Perfection in every bite. Definitely a little hidden gem. Coming back next for the asada tacos. Also seeing an awesome deal for taco hour 3-5 Monday through Thursday for 3 Al pastor tacos and a canned soda 9.99.
Definitely my new favorite taco spot

Atmosphere was great, owner was amazing and quick with our order. I was in a group of 4 and Daniel treated us with so much kindness. I ordered the Torta with chicken and my wife order the Gringa with Al Pastor. Both were delicious and perfect. Definitely a place to hit up again in the near future

My husband and I stopped by just before 12:00 to have lunch. Parking in the front was a bit awkward and scarce, but there were plenty of spots around back.
When we walked in, there were quite a few people eating lunch (which is a good sign). We glanced at the menu on the tv screen and quickly picked out a few things we wanted. I loved that the menu wasn’t too large for my indecisiveness.
We ordered two Al pastor tacos, an Al pastor burrito, and an Al pastor gringa. They gave us a holder with sauces, salt, napkins, and utensils and told us to listen for our name. We were only seated for a few minutes when our food was ready. It was quick!
First things first. Pineapple on tacos?!? Don’t knock it till you try it my friend, because it’s amazing! It gave the taco a tangy sweetness that I didn’t know it needed. The pineapple definitely paired well with the other flavors and elevated the dish. It was flavorful, but not too strong, and it was soft. Every slice of pineapple was a good slice of pineapple.
Each dish comes with lime and I feel like they’re very generous. I was able to put lime on every single bite of food. Other places give one tiny lime wedge, but not here. Multiple wedges with each dish!
The tacos were good, the gringa was excellent, and the burrito was perfect. The burrito came California style and was chuck full of deliciousness. The guacamole inside made my tastebuds so happy! I would order all three items again (I’m actually already planning another lunch date).
We had every intention to get the carne asada because my husband and I aren’t pork people. We messed up when ordering though, and accidentally asked for the Al Pastor, but I think it was a great mistake. The Al Pastor is cooked on a spit, which slow-roasts the meat while the exterior caramelizes. This method made the meat so juicy, soft, and flavorful! It’s definitely the only way to have Al Pastor!
Last but not least, this place was clean. There was someone constantly cleaning and making sure the restaurant was neat and tidy. As we were leaving, he made sure we liked the food and asked us to come back. We would love to come back :)
