This is an interesting place - small and kind if a hole in the wall. If you weren't looking for it you'd go right by it. However they specialize in tacos and it's the one thing they do and they do it very well. The tacos themselves are small but they have a nice variety on their menu which allows you to try a number of different taste combinations. The flavors are very good and the items that are added to the tacos themselves off and have a pleasant sweet taste to them. For example the onions are red onions that are cut very thin but are not overpowering at all. They offer a number of nice sauces and condiments on the side that you can add as you prefer. The tacos themselves are soft and doughy and very pleasant. They also have a number of beers on tap including at least four on draught at any particular time. There is not a lot of room inside to eat but there are some tables and chairs that are inside (and outside on a small front porch.) When we were there there was a steady stream of customers coming in to order carryout. There is nothing fancy about this place but they just offer really good tasty simple food and I would highly recommend you...
Read moreThe look and feel of this restaurant was great, it had a good vibe to it. Lots of cool decorations on the walls. This place came highly recommended from friends. When visiting Leesburg today we decided to try them out. No parking onsite, but a big structure nearby, only a 2 min walk. I had a lengthy discussion with the gentleman who took my order, over my dietary concerns and what I am allergic to. And was told there was no problem to remove anything that goes inside them or on top. So we ordered our meals all at the same time and on one bill for take out. Once home with containers in hand it was discovered that non of the eight containers were marked at all, everything all in the bag needed to be guesswork. Through process of elimination I ended up with mine. Ham and cheese empanada, and a barria with no onions. To my horror. It looked like there were extra onions added to it. My bill clearly states it. So frustrated. How do you go about not marking containers in a large order? I could see if it was 1 or 2 items to be no big deal. Won't return here. Food was just okay. Nothing...
Read moreTl;Dr para mis compas mexicanos: NO pidan al pastor, bajo ninguna circunstancia.
Corn tortillas were cold and crumbly, but tasted fine. Tried empanadas, pastor, tongue, lamb, and carne asada.
Pros: Tongue was EXCELLENT, perfect texture, great taste. Red salsa was somewhat spicy. Empanadas were great !
Whatever: Green salsa Carne asada was fine, not great.
Cons: Tortillas. It looks like half the fillings are croc pot shredded insert protein here..
Never again: Lamb was dry and flavorless shredded lamb. Pastor was ALSO shredded pork, soupy, super dry and bland. Wrong cooking method, wrong ingredients and spices, wrong presentation. Definately the biggest dissapointment, it took me a while to determine if I had picked up the correct order because I couldn't even tell what this was, the meat was the same color as the pineapple.
Overall mixed on the food, excellent service, I would return but there are some things I would never order again, and I imagine the carnitas and barbacoa (both described as shredded) to fall in the same problem as...
