The tacos are really good. Meat it seasoned great, and the homemade tortillas are insane. This place used to be a dry cleaners which is probably why people don’t like the atmosphere, but I personally don’t care about atmosphere when I’m trying to just get a good taco.

Very nice little taco shop! The food was made quickly, everything was very fresh and hot! I had a delicious burrito, the carne asada was very flavorful and the fries were perfectly crispy.The salsa is good, and the orange hot sauce has a perfect level of heat.I ordered a side of chips, they were freshly made and very good.The horchata is also fresh and tasty!Would recommend highly.

I'm here once every two weeks for lunch. Fast service, even when it does get a little crowded at lunch hour. I normally get a carne asada rice bowl, and the thing is PACKED. I definitely get my moneysworth. They don't flake on the meat or toppings. Plenty of guacomole. I usually get a side of chips to dig into the bowl, and it's a filling combination, which is saying something - I have an appetite working 12 hr days.At least a dozen salsas to choose from. Several meat options. Wide variety of drinks to but I'm stuck on the horchata.I get it to go most of the time, and it's still hot when I reach my destination. Even the chips are still warm. The place is definitely worth a shot.

The green sauce is amazing, I would put it on anything - it is delicious on my chilaquiles!

A spacious, clean and friendly taco shop serving a diverse menu of flavor and quality. This was a wonderful, passing-through-the-neighborhood discovery for me - and they're open until 10pm, which perfectly fit my need at the time. *Loved* their "spicy" salsa from the little salsa bar - the reddish, coarsely textured stuff - very tasty and with a nice kick that left a pleasant afterglow. The spicy green variety was also memorable as well as the "extra spicy" red salsa. All were delicious. Excellent carne asada burrito - my close-to-closing-time sample had a generous portion of beef that was quite tender and lightly seasoned (not overly salty, not heavily greasy and essentially no gristle at all) - definitely above the norm for chopped beef quality. Very enjoyable. Rolled tacos were equally satisfying. Putting the appeal of their burrito and tacos together with the punch of their tasty salsa pretty much guarantees I'll be "passing through" again soon. My dining partner was equally impressed. Kudos!
