Great Food, Wild Price
I can’t not give them 5 stars, but $5 for a street taco is still WILD to me. The food was excellent, but the price of the street taco was surprisingly high.

Best Al Pastor for $5!
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, especially for the price. I had the best al pastor I've ever tasted, and it was only $5! My only tip is to avoid coming too early, as this will ensure your al pastor is extra crispy. The food, service, and atmosphere all received a perfect 5/5 rating.

Disappointing Price Increase for Smaller Portions
My experience at this restaurant was disappointing. While the food was good, I found the price for street tacos to be way too high, especially considering the portions are now a lot smaller. It's very disappointing that they are not able to be consistent with their food. No bueno! They’re charging more for less!

Fantastic Al Pastor Tacos!
Fire Al Pastor Tacos! This place has been on my radar for a long time, and I'm glad I finally made it out this Sunday to try it. I arrived at opening time and thankfully, there was no wait. The staff were kind and friendly. I tried the pastor and chorizo tacos, which were fantastic – perhaps some of the best in the city. I will definitely be back!

Deliciously Spicy Meal!
My experience at the restaurant was absolutely delicious. The green sauce and queso sauce were wonderful. It was a properly spicy meal.

Spectacular Tacos, Will Return!
I happened to pass by this place purely by chance after having tacos in the area. I couldn't eat anymore, but the al pastor looked tremendous, and one more taco always fits. And what a joy it was that I stopped. Spectacular! I will be back ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Authentic Street Tacos, Late Night Gem
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic! It's a true taco institution, serving up authentic street tacos with incredible flavors. I particularly enjoyed the cabeza, pastor, and lengua. The restaurant offers a few seats and tables, making it a convenient spot to grab a bite. A great bonus is that they are open till late.

Authentic Street Tacos Highly Recommended
My experience at this restaurant was fantastic, especially regarding the food. The tacos are incredibly authentic, truly the best I've had outside of Mexico. They are, as the reviewer states, "very, very good. " The reviewer highly recommends the lengua and tripa tacos, noting they are excellent choices for those feeling adventurous. For those who prefer something less adventurous, the pastor tacos are also a good option. The reviewer also rated the food, service, and atmosphere a perfect 5 out of 5, indicating an outstanding overall experience.

Authentic Street Tacos Done Right
If you’re looking for a street taco, this is where you go. The meat is flavored perfectly, the tortillas are bomb, and the portions are on point. You will not be disappointed.
