    I've been coming here for 15+ years. Love there tacos. Their red sauce is actually hot and it has great flavor. Only place I'll drink horchata, it's great, not too sweet. I love their asada, lengua, cabeza, pollo. I go for the tacos.

    Been coming here for more than 10 years already, and will keep coming just for the burritos. Same owner for the past 39 years, friendly staff, and clean tables. Prices have gone up but are still reasonable considering portion sizes. Only problem I have is the parking lot is small and sometimes the salsa is bad.

    Restaurant is very clean a lot of booths to sit in. I ordered combination burrito with asada . It was very delicious. Service was excellent. No language barrier at all. The only problem I can see is they only take cash. Hopefully in future they will add card use.

    I been coming here for years the food is great and the prices are just about right. Parking could be hard at times and is not a great place to dine in. I always do take out. But is worth it, this is one of the original old school tacos in the area.
