On the bright side, the carne asada was some of the best I've had in a long time! The staff here are hard workers who really know how to hustle. I will definitely be coming back. Just a heads up, the restaurant shares a parking lot with Winco.

I ordered takeout for my family based on a recommendation, and I was pleased with the food. The prices are very affordable, and the portion sizes are generous – one taco is definitely filling enough! I could manage two, but it might be a bit too much for my stomach. I personally tried the Cali Tacos, and while the fries could have used a bit more seasoning, I really enjoyed my taco. For my family, I ordered Rolled Tacos with shredded chicken topped with carne asada, as well as Fried Mahi Tacos—one with cabbage and one without. Everyone enjoyed their meals, and we’re excited to return and try the breakfast options that everyone has been raving about in the reviews!

However, this place truly offers authentic Mexican cuisine. I was initially surprised by the menu being entirely in English, but wow, the food is incredible and served just like it would be in Mexico. The prices are fantastic; I ordered rolled tacos thinking they would be small, but they turned out to be quite large, and the order included five tacos! Plus, their aguas frescas are the best, along with the salsa bar.
