I think TJs idea of good Mexican food must be taco bell. If that's what you're after, don't come here. If however you're after quite possibly the best AUTHENTIC Mexican food, stop here and then stop again and again as I did. I ate here every day for a week straight and switched it up a bit. The prices for everything were honestly ridiculous. You could spend $20 here, or $100 in Charleston and I promise this meal would top the expensive meal. The asada tacos were my favorite until I tried the torta. For those who don't know, this is basically a Mexican sandwich that is literally the size of the to-go boxes. A heaping portion of steak, cilantro, onions, fried egg, and that secret sauce all piled onto one of the best buns I've ever had.

Wish the beef cheek was available to try but we will just have to come back. Also, these were big tacos and filled with meat. Expected these to be smaller and were surprised, and ended...
Read moreI had the best tacos here last week 😊👍
I had an Al Pastor Tostado and a Carnitas taco. I ordered a burrito Al Pastor to go for my hubs.
The taco and tostado were fantastic - soft taco corn shell and crispy tostado shell.
I liked the crispiness of the tostado best. Both had ample toppings and lots of protein. Very good flavor and heat.
