Delicious, specially the tacos al pastor!!!! You can see how they make it right at the spot and also see how they are making the tortillas right there. The rest of the tacos were also good but the al pastor were sensational

This place was right around the corner from where I was staying and it smelled delightful as I was walking by so I decided to pop in a couple of times through my vacation. I ordered several different things through my few times there tacos Pastor, maciza, alambres con arrachera... all excellent! I absolutely loved the warm pico and tostadas they brought out complimentary. Service was fairly quick, very friendly and helpful.

The food is excellent, an old-school taco place, most-likely 30+ years old. Service is fine and prices are a bit high. Never full, but never empty. Nice and quiet.
