“ This food is getting better every time I eat there. Good sized food, great flavor, and the price is very low for the quality. I go every time I am in the area. The owner cares a lot about this place. He is always there. ”
“ Food is great, portions are huge, employees are kind. Big open space. Restroom inside. Love this taco shop!! My wife recommends the chicken chimichanga (no beans, extra cheese and sourcream) Carneasada burritos are good too. ”
“ Found this place on Google maps while driving back to Las Vegas. The pictures and reviews looked good. Wanted something quick and easy. This place delivered on both. Let's start with the good. The Food was excellent. Hot and so fresh. The restaurant was clean, and so were the bathrooms. We got the Lengua (beef tongue) street tacos. They came with a side of chips with refried beans on top. These were amazing. The meat was tender and flavorful. We also got the chicken Rolled tacos. They were very good too, not dried out like others that we've had. We also wanted a side of rice and beans... This is where our issue was. On the menu, it said 1 to add rice and 1 to add beans. However, after receiving the bill, we were charged 3.25 for rice and another 3.25 for beans. When we asked the girl about the overcharge, her answer was that it was an old menu. We noticed it said 1/2 pint of each, which was more than what we were wanting. We just wanted a small side of each. I will say the rice was a little dry and lacked flavor. But the beans were awesome! The other nice thing they offered was a small salsa bar with 2 salsa options (both delicious), limes, and some amazing pickled carrots. I wish we had bought a giant container of those carrots. They were so good with the right amount of spice. If we are passing through and are looking for some good fast (they also have a drive thru) mexican food, we will definitely stop. ”

“ So I’m sitting here, again, at a clean table. Delicious food in front of me, my two girls digging into their meals. Good people, quick service, clean interior. Doesn’t smell weird. Feels like a place I want to be for dinner. ”
