We came for a very late dinner & the service was excellent, the food was good and they stayed open a few minutes late so we could finish. I had a bowl of Caldo de Res and a Birria plate. Food was hot and the plates were plentiful. I will be back for breakfast.

First bite of my surf & turf I pulled out a broke off shrimp tail (crunchy) with my teeth, second bite I pulled out the shrimp and realized the shrimp haven’t been cleaned, deveined or anything. I want my money back. Don’t eat here. If they can’t be bothered to clean the shrimp, what else aren’t they caring about or cleaning… Burrito went directly into the trash.

First time here, was looking for a taco shop around University Ave and found this place. I always try the beef tacos at new places and these were pretty good. Taco shel was crunchy, meat was good but wasn’t really shredded, more of big chunks of meat. Overall it was good.

Went thru the drive thru and ordered the Edpecial shrimp stuffed potato. It was delicious! Highly recommend trying it.

Flavor delicious but 2 taco plate wasn’t worth the buck. I was not pleased with the thin spread of meat that was served on my plate with hard not even chewy rice. First time going to the place and I was really disappointed and hunger…

The wonderful woman that works there her name is Mari she is so nice. We get our food, first thing I notice is the tortilla. Thin, which is good, I don’t want to fill up on tortilla, so a plus for that. I got the chili relleno burrito. Perfect. Rice, beans, pico, sour cream, guac and yes the chili with not a lot of cheese. Yay. My son got a carnitas burrito, I asked him what did he like the best, he said he can’t explain it, just so freaking good. Since this original review I have had the cheese enchiladas ❤️❤️ and their guacamole salsa is amazing. Horchata is homemade, it’s the best

I love this place, absolutely love it. There’s a reason why I go there, at least twice a week if not more, and it’s for their street tacos. I get 3 generally and my go to is 2 chicken and 1 asada, no pico/cilantro, guacamole and cheese only (sometimes adding carrots on the side). I order it sooo many times that the server’s in the drive thru pretty much know me. As far as I know. My only issue with them is the final bill. Again I order the same thing almost EVERY time but when it comes to paying it’s never consistent. $6.85, $6.86, $4.01(last Tuesday with no copy), $8.48, and tonight $7.92? I’ve questioned my bill before and was provided a breakdown and even tonight without asking she handed me an itemized copy because she knew that I was wondering what the total would be today. It’s a gamble for good food but will be the last time I sit at the card table. Again the food is outstanding just make sure you check your order. From a former loyal customer.

Update: I’ve been a loyal customer for a while, but quality has declined MASSIVELY and it’s too expensive to justify continuing to eat here. Just had a carne asada breakfast burrito with hardly any meat, and what little meat there was, was all fat. Extremely disappointing. There’s another taco shop in the same complex that does $1 taco Tuesdays and it just better priced in general.
