Ordered a carnitas burrito with everything, add guac and cheese. This burrito was ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY DELICIOUS. Cantaloupe agua fresca was not too sweet and very enjoyable.

Wow, these fresh tortilla tacos are magical. Everything tastes super fresh. Nice vibe. Love it! (Don’t let the Detroit pizza next door distract you!)

High quality ingredients with tasty Mexican dishes! Tried the bigote dorato which is a less filling alternative to the burrito. Great flavor and presentation.

The pozole verde is really good. They make their own tortillas, and their ‘agua frescas’ are extremely refreshing.

The breakfast burrito is my favorite, and a great value for the price. I also like the tacos. Not a big fan of the rest of the menu, its a bit bland for my tastes. Everything is really high quality, and the mother and daughter team that run the place are extremely nice and passionate people.

Amazing food, really lovely owners. Def go and support the business, since Airbnb started allowing its workers to be remote only, their business has really suffered.
