It took a while to get my food but I didn’t mind because it was so good. Tostadas were very filling and quesadillas tasted amazing.

Came here last night for some great tacos! We got the asada del res, which was delicious! I really wish they had a saucier taco like birria, but the steak was delicious. Service was fast and friendly, it was open late and would absolutely come back soon!
