One of my favorite places for Mexican food in Pittsburgh. Every time we’re in town we make sure to stop by. Moved to the the Washington area from Orange County, CA so my taste may be a little different then some but I think it’s close to what I would get in CA and love it. I’ve had most items on the menu and it’s all been delicious. Highly recommend to try out.

Good burritos. Lots of options for dietary restrictions. The California burrito tastes really good, but the fries don’t add much to the experience.

Not what I expected when we chose this place before a concert on google, but it was delicious. It’s on again city street, so parking is limited side streets. It’s just a small little place. Seems to do more takeout than dine in. They have two long high tables against the sides of the walls with stools for dinning in, so it’s more of a quick eat and head out. The food was delicious. I got a California burrito (which was LOADED with carne asada) and rice & beans.

Phenomenon food and service! I had mahi mahi tacos and my mom had the carne asada burrito. We shared chips and salsa. The man working the counter was so friendly and helpful in making suggestions. Will definitely be returning!

Staff is super friendly and the place is very cool. I love the decor and painted seats and all. The food was pretty good quality, the queso wasn’t my favorite but still pretty good. My only problem is that it was a little pricey but they probably use good quality ingredients so id say it’s worth it. Would still recommend.

Located just west of Carnegie Melon and north of U.Pitt. The location seems to attract the students but the food is expensive for the amount of food given and though the food was good, it wasn’t great. The cashier was very friendly and helpful in taking our order.

I tried the potato taco and vegan chorizo taco. Chorizo one was cold, I feel like they didn’t defrost it enough. Potato taco comes with boiled potatoes and no spice. Liked the tortilla though.

I got a chorizo, a chicken taco, and a TJ hot dog. You have to go street style because soft shell or die. The tacos were massive compared to the typical street tacos of Mexico or LA. Definitely worth the money. It came with the signature cilantro and onion, topped off with lime. I wish the hot sauce was a little hotter, but great tacos. As for the hot dog, it was described to me as “bacon-wrapped”, but I could not fin any bacon. It came topped with Mexican cheese, cilantro/onion, tomatoes, and guacamole. It was a great hot dog, but going in expecting bacon and not getting bacon was pretty disappointing. I will definitely go back, but I’m going back for the tacos, u less someone finds the bacon. Great atmosphere, very limited seating (I think there like 12 bar stools). Definitely get over here or I think there is a location in Regent Square. Either way, you’ll be happy and full.

Hands down the most authentic Mexican restaurant in town! The chile relleno burrito is crispy and delicious. The tacos are fresh and amazing as well. The staff is very friendly and the food is ready quickly.
