Ahh man! Dude I loved it. There's this Instagram of a potato with carne aside, Pico, la creme and everything else on it. Well this is the spot! You have a choice of burritos, casa dias etc but you also can choose a potato with you choice of toppings on it. Man it was soo good. Perfect flavors and jus filling enough. $12 bucks gotta carne asada potato and a drink. Only a few were there, lots of seating. Your choice of drinks. Gotta come check it out. There's no name out the outside but maps leads you right to it. Stop in!

The food was delicious. I got the carne asada burrito added corn. Was the best! Also their Micheladas are the best I have ever had. Ypu would have to go to Baja to get anything remotely close to their Michelada. And for dessert they have a wall of Chamoy gummies, The best 👌 no other chamoy even comes close to these!! Go try it. Ypu wont be disappointed.

I was really disappointed with this place. Unfortunately, the food was not good at all and I’m genuinely worried I might end up with food poisoning. I do want to note that the guy who served us was great—friendly and helpful—but that was the only positive part of the experience. We ordered three carne asada burritos, and one order of three tacos, and they were definitely made with unseasoned ground beef instead of carne asada. They were packed with rice and beans, with barely any meat. The salsa was extremely diluted and lacked any flavor. The worst part, though, was the tacos. I ordered three carne asada tacos for my mom, and there was so little meat it was almost comical—just a small streak of meat in the tortilla, hidden under a light sprinkle of toppings. Overall, the prices were h

Large portions!! They are very generous with proteins, toppings, and sauces. Elote was delicious. I ordered the Elote Bowl with Carne Asada. My partner ordered the Elote Quesadilla with Adobada. That was the thickest quesadilla I’ve ever seen and my bowl was fully loaded. The dining room had some cool art work. Folding table and chairs. Good for the food trucks I saw they have out back on the weekends. A little cold so dress warm during this time of year! We found a game of Candy Land on the shelf so we enjoyed playing a few rounds of that while eating - it was a good time! We might come hang out with a game of our own next time!

This restaurant is spacious, colorful, and has 2 tvs. I dont remember if they serve beer, but they have glass bottle beverages and agua Fresca. It's a fun twist on a taqueria... we don't have anything similar to this where we live. The esquite cups are delicious, and you can taste that the corn has been roasted. In our pictures, the plate on the left is a baked potato (which was my favorite) and on the right was the fries. The plate by itself is a bowl, although there are options to add veggies which I really liked.
