    all the workers i've interacted with here have been nice! i've decided that the tacos here are my favorite after moving here 9 months ago.

    i usually get al pastor or birria and it ends up really hitting the spot. both have excellent flavor and are very tender. lately i've been liking their carnitas a lot and they do a good job of having them come out juicy and not dry.

    This place was cool for cheap and fast tacos. The pastor was more flavorful than the asada meat. The cucumbers were a perfect compliment for the tacos and the salsas were ok. Not the best, but I'd go again if I was hungry and needed a cheap and fast option. The horchata was warm (granted it was a hot day) and a little too sweet for my preference, but my boyfriend thought it was a 7.5/10.

    The staff was really nice and the place was clean so that was a plus!

    My family and I LOVE this place. Hands down our favorite taco shop. it used to be Taco Bar but no more...
    I always order carnitas tacos which have never disappointed. And with their green salsa & a little lime, omg heaven. And we LOVE the addition of the beans!
    My husband gets adobada, buche, & carne asada tacos and he always raves.
    The staff has been nice 95% of the time. maybe they had a bad day the other 5%
    The only bad thing is parking. We try to go later in the evening to avoid any issues.
    Totally worth going to and I want to go right now

    Whole in the wall tacos shop that has extremely good birria tacos.  The salsa are good but could use a bit more spice (heat) for my taste.  Overall pretty good food.  Almost no parking and seating, I believe they have 4 parking spots and 4 tables.

    Better than okay but nothing too special. I had a chicken torta (my current obsession) and the chicken and bread were good! They don't offer fresh avocado, all they had was a pre-made avocado purée.

    The place itself looks like it is a house made into a restaurant, pretty sketchy looking at first but definitely worth a try! My friends had the tripe and they said it was phenomenal. I'm not into tacos but we eat Mexican a lot so I think their opinion means a lot. Indoor and outdoor seating. Parking is rough.
