From the moment we walked in we were greeting with a smile and friendly atmosphere. I asked the woman behind the counter for her recommendation as everything looked amazing and she recommended the street tacos which I got with all meat flavors. My spouse got a steak smothered burrito. I cannot emphasize how absolutely amazing every single thing was. The pork was tender and moist, the brisket was smokey with just a touch of spice. My new favorite spot!! Absolute must try if you enjoy mexican food or BBQ (try the brisket sandwich). Can't wait to return!

Absolutely delicious and the staff/owners are awesome!! Came from out of town with my family and everything was phenomenal!! Thank you so much for such a great meal(s)!! We ate here for breakfast lunch AND DINNER (psst-it was so damn good we went back for more) the fry bread tostada was the best, the enchiladas were full of flavor and the pulled pork sandwich was mouthwatering. Street tacos were on point!!!

Really loved the food here. I had the flautas Mexicans and charro beans. Was absolutely delicious. Both the red and green sauce were very flavorful, there was a lot of chicken in the flautas and it was cooked perfectly. Also I'm a sucker for red sauce and it was definitely full of robust flavor. It's a very cute little hole in the wall place and honestly couldn't imagine it any other way. It's really good.

Great food and great service ! If you’re local or just passing through, this place cannot be recommended enough ! The tacos and Brisket Sandwich are insane ! Edit: we came back the following morning for breakfast - the owners were so welcoming ! Go for their brisket and egg burrito if you want to start your day on a great note. Will hopefully be back !

What a cool little hidden place for great food! Service was fast and friendly. The food was to die for. I had the smothered brisket burrito with red and green sauce. Both were among the best sauces I’ve had. Nice and spicy too. My wife had the brisket street tacos(4)and loved them. Both of them including two sodas for $20. Wow. Thanks, we’ll be back!

First time here and this hole-in-the-wall restaurant did not disappoint. Large menu of Mexican and Tex-Mex foods, prepared fresh. I got the cheese enchiladas with red sauce and they were delicious! Spicy, but not too spicy for this gringo. We'll be back. Highly recommended.
