Some of the best tacos I’ve ever had! The birria tacos were incredible; tender, flavorful meat and a rich, delicious broth that tasted freshly made. The fried chicken tacos were also amazing and huge! The crispy shell paired with juicy grilled chicken was a perfect combo. We also ordered chips with red and green salsa, both were excellent. The red had a nice kick, and the green was super fresh. Definitely a must-visit spot if you’re a taco lover!

I came to check this place out. Ultimately I was not impressed. Didn't seem to particularly stand out from the thousands of other similar taco places. When I ordered I told them I can't eat pork. So when I got the tacos I ordered it had pork rinds inside the tacos. Flavor was mediocre. Location was not great. You have to park in the back of the building and walk all the way around in the South Florida heat. And there is no sidewalk so when you are walking around the building you are walking on the one-way road that allows cars to get into the parking lot in the back so it feels like an accident waiting to happen. There are few taco places that I feel are worth the price. Tacos are supposed to be cheap. But for some reason, people think it's okay to charge 15 dollars for 3 tiny tacos. I don't get it and it shouldn't be normalized if you ask me.

This is one of my favorite Mexican food places in the area. The place is clean, the staff is friendly and the food is delicious. I got a burrito al pastor and my wife got tacos🌮. Both were tasty and had good portions. The nachos were also something special, which we enjoyed and ended up getting more to take home.

I was not expecting an authentic Mexican meal here since the atmosphere did not give it that vibe- more cute than good food. The food was meh- extremely salty and no real good flavor. I got the birria quesadilla,Bad hombre and campechano tacos. Salty- everything was not enjoyable, the birria consomé was trash. Overall, the food was not great. The service however was nice. Very attentive- no complaints. Would not go back for expensive not tasty food. Not worth the calories. They did have Mexican coke available, so I guess that’s a plus.

This is a cute little place that recently opened! The atmosphere is enjoyable and the place is very well decorated and super clean. Service was great! The cashier was very helpful when I ordered. They let me know they had just opened a few weeks ago. We ordered some birria tacos and crispy chicken tacos. The birria tacos were very tasty! The crispy tacos we thought were regular tortillas with fried chicken, but they were actually flautas. We also ordered a side of guacamole and chips and they were very tasty. A bummer they didn’t have horchata because they said the demand for it hasn’t been that high. I highly recommended this place if you are in the area! P.S. they are waiting on their alcohol license and should have it soon 😀 Overall, it was a great experience and would come again. Please support local places like this one!

It’s been a while since I’ve been meaning to try out this new local taco spot. I came in on a Sunday and ordered 3 birria and one chorizo and potato taco. I ordered to go so my partner and I could sit out on the beach while giving it a try. Chips and salsa were free and the birria came with a side of rice that I have to say was delicious. The birria is my wife’s favorite and so she was the real reviewer, she gives them a 8/10 which is solid. The consume she gives a 10 and I can agree it was soo flavorful! I’d give the overall experience and food an 8.5/10. The service was quick and the food was good. Only thing I will say is that if you’re interested in trying different types of tacos you’re only allowed to purchase 3 of the same, only exception is to add one to your plate (hence the one chorizo and potato taco). Which I hope in the future will change. Would come back!

I would give this place negative stars if I could. I ordered their chicken tacos that states it comes with a side of rice. The “side of rice” was barely even enough for ONE bite see the picture to know I am not exaggerating. When I drive all the way back to address the portion, an employee named Guillermo looked at me with a blank stare & said since it’s a special so it’s less rice? Going back and forth with me making no sense & not trying to resolve the issues. Don’t waste your time or money here for terrible food & service!

We tried this place and absolutely loved it! The tacos were delicious and filling. The churros were to die for! Everything was made on the spot and well worth the wait. Both chef and waitress very pleasant and attentive. We definitely will be returning.
