Missing some really great Mexican food, I ventured and took a gamble on this place. Saw all the great reviews and thought what the heck! Sooooo happy I did! As soon as I took the first bite of my taco al pastor, my soul danced!!! :D These are legit; I'll happily take the 30-minute drive for these! Yes, it's a taco truck, in some hole in the wall, and so I knew what to expect. The staff was nice and the service was fast! I almost came back the second time, on the SAME day!!! :P

I’ve only tried their breakfast burritos and I always get chorizo, egg, and cheese and they are delicious. The chorizo is not spicy, and it’s sometimes greasy, but neither are detractors for me. They grill the tortilla which I like too. Definitely give them a try.

I had the barbacoa torta and it was probably one of the best sandwiches I've eaten in my life. The meat was seasoned so well and was so tender; do yourself a favor and get it...or get 5; no judgement here. If you're looking for something spicy, get anything with chicharron. Al pastor... Chef's kiss. And you know the food is good when it still tastes fantastic the next day. I cannot recommend this food enough!

Fresh a tasty! Very fast service. You can Take it to go but they have seating inside or out. Lines form fast at lunch so be prepared to wait or just call in your order.

This place is hands down the best taco place I have ever eaten at! They are exceptionally cost friendly and the employees are warm and welcoming. If you haven’t tried this place, do it! You won’t regret it.
