This place is great. Value for your money. All tacos are $2 each. They’re small but packed with meat and full of flavor. Red and green salsa are on the side. I like to mix both. Both barbacoa and pastor are tasty. But my favorite is the corn in a cup. Really creamy and delicious. Considering home made food and the price it’s worth coming here to eat. I get tired of paying lots of money for fancy tacos whereas here you get great food for your hard earned dollars.

Came here cuz the reviews were so persuasive and it definetely didn't disappoint! Highly recommend the barbacoa tacos cuz they were amazing and the corn in a cup was SO good with the spicy sauce they have by the pickup window I took an updated pic of their menu cuz the prices went up a bit from the menus that others had posted in the past. Still very reasonable though and the tacos are minis but they are loaded with meat! Oh and it's a cash only type of place btw

Best darn tacos I have ever had! This is authentic Mexican and not Texmex. It is a permanent taco truck with outdoor seating only. Who cares. Eat them in your vehicle. Outstanding!!

This was the best example of Great Mexican food I’ve ever had. The corn in a cup is life changing and is a must buy for anyone driving past even if your not hungry. The burritos were full of meat and flavor. Love this place!!!!
