★★★★★ 5.0 Ana Rodriguez · Dec 2025

We arrived and were greeted by very nice employees who speak English and Spanish very Good! We got the molcajete, steak tacos, quesadillas, quesabirrira, birria tacos, agua de jamaica, horchata, guacamole, chips and salsa. It was all very good and would recommend it all. The servers were so nice and helpful. Lots of seating and parking for the location. Come check them out!! The prices were crazy good for the quality of food. The restaurant was also very clean along with the restroom.

They did such a good job updating this place. Plenty of seating and such a great location. I was thrilled to see many vegetarian options! Started with the burrito, added red sauce. So much food and was delicious. The fresh chips and salsa were a nice touch! Can’t wait to return.

There were multiple pieces of severely uncooked meat in my burrito, the burrito also had a strange taste. I am someone who frequently goes to taquerias all around and I saw this on Google with high ratings so I was hungry and excited to try. The Al pastor burrito barely had any meat to begin with, but I’ve never had a burrito with a quarter of the meat in it uncooked, and this strange taste that was similar to peanut butter all throughout the rest of it 🤢. The cashier was fine band brought me my burrito but the actual item itself was one of if not the absolute WORST burrito I’ve ever had. It tasted so strange and the meat being uncooked is completely unacceptable. Avoid this Taqueria at all costs, I just couldn’t stand it and will be going elsewhere to get dinner.

Breakfast burrito. SO GOOD. Quick and cheap. Right down the street. Now I know where to go when we need good eats. The nachos and salsa while waiting were incredible.

I split a chicken super burrito with my sister and it was fantastic! A slightly sweet flavor to the refried beans I believe, which was okay but overall very juicy and a great amount of guac and other fillings! Chicken was flavorful. Their chips were well done and very good, I liked the salsa as well! The folks working were very personable and kind, very happy to have a great taqueria here!
