We liked their taco al pastor so much, we came back a second time before we...

Actually, the food was really nice but they tease you in with a (conparatively) low set meal price to then surprise you with an unmentioned service fee, pretending it is normal for the area. To us it seemed that 20Q service fee on a total amount of 60Q for the meals seems outrageous and no other restaurant around did...
