I was a little reluctant to try out a place that only served al pastor items. I figured that I would be sick of it and wouldn’t want to order too much.

Well, I was wrong! This place does a great job of making authentic al pastor tacos. I ordered a gringa and 3 tacos, and I wanted more! Now i try to find an excuse or occasion to go there.

Now, the reason why i give it a 4 out 5 stars are two reasons. 1) As I mentioned, the lack of diversity of foods. I get that the whole point of the place is to be al pastor but at least have different options like burritos, salads, and etc. 2) The main reason, price. Because of the serving size, you have to order more. I went with just my wife and i and it came out to $26. The first time we went it came out to $23. There is no way a taco joint should ever be that much. So change your pricing.

Also, quick note, ADD pineapple to the gringa. It would be a lot better and give it more flavor.

I would honestly go here 2-3 times a month but the price isn’t worth it so I might just go once a month instead.

UPDATE: went back 10 months later, on Friday night. And for some reason at 7:35 pm they ran out of the only thing...

I served a mission in Mexico City. Tacos al pastor are one of the best foods that has ever existed on this earth. I’ve tried over 100 places in Utah, Las Vegas and Los Angelos. Even the places that people tell me are authentic end up being a disappointment. Holy Tacos wasn’t a disappointment. You can immediately tell they have an influence from Mexico City in one way or another.. they are absolutely amazing! The thin slices with no fat or grit and layered with pineapple and perfect salsa is exactly what I would expect to get at the best locations in Mexico City. If you want to eat a real taco. This is the place. I did notice they use the choppy ends and poorer quality meat for their gringas. But I still give them a 5 star review because they are the only authentic al pastor tacos I’ve had in the United States. Tell everyone about this place and keep them in...
