Honestly, best mexican I've had in a while especially in NC. Stayed at the hotel next door and im so glad i did because the barbacoa burrito was bomb. Took some friends here as well and they will convert to Mexican. Didnt even have a chance to take pictures from how fast everyone ate.

This place has probably the most authentic Mexican food that you can find in the Triangle area. Their tortas are especially good, and the tamales are pure abuela comfort food. Just pure and simple. Fantastic.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Perez Perez · Oct 2025

I’ve been going for the tacos since 3 years ago, I took a friend this week to show her the best tacos in Raleigh but we were disappointed. Tacos are now smaller and less filling. It’s served in a smaller paper rectangular plate now. Tortilla hardens quickly looks like tortilla “from the bag” not fresh, definitely not going back, the 1 hr driving to get the best tacos is not worth it now. Staff is very friendly but I doesn’t change the worth of my money.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 kay welch · Oct 2025

So my family and I came and spent almost 30.00 on 3 super tacos and a kids nugget meal and we did not get all of our toppings nor enough meat to cover the bottom of the taco. I called and spoke to the Mgr. And she did not want to fix the issue. The remake was worse and tasted old. We will not be back. This is not the same taco restaurant that we all loved!! Now its all dried out! Freshest thing is the lettuce and tomato. Go to taco bell!
