Awesome restaurant! The atmosphere and service is top notch. The food is delicious. The stand out for me were the birria tacos. Will be coming back for sure!

The food is Delicious and everything I have had from the tacos, to the enchiladas and sopes have been phenomenal! The young man working the counter provides top notch customer service and makes you feel as if you are a guest in his home. I can not recommend this place enough.

Excellent food! Attentive service, low key kind of place. Had fajitas and a carnitas burrito, good sized portions and very tasty. Took home a chocolate flan and cheesecake for dessert, incredible! Will come back.

Just go! Excellent quick service, great portions, delicious food, good prices, and we even got complimentary ice cream at the end ! Our experience here just kept getting better. I had the birria tacos and they were worth the hype. I will definitely be coming back here.

I love everything here! The Al Pastor tacos, carne asada tostadas, the tortas, and even their desserts. I have even used them for catering a party the rice, beans, and churros were a hit! This is the best Mexican food I have had since moving from AZ. The staff Ernesto and Scarlet are the absolute best when it comes to customer service.

I went to this new Mexican restaurant and ordered carne asada tacos. They were good. The steak could have been a little more tender. The wide variety of desserts look delicious. You can eat in (there's few tables available) or take out. The service is friendly and I'll definitely go back again. Edit: I went there today (August 2, 2023) and I'm sad to say that I won't be back, unless they change the type of meat that is used in the carne asada tacos. When I called to let someone know that the beef is extremely salty, greasy and tough, I was informed that they're using a different kind of meat. Please don't lower your standards.

I tried this place for the first time earlier this week. We ordered online. Everything was really good. Might be the best tacos in Dundalk. We had the Pastor, carne asada and pollo tacos. Everything was top notch. The deserts look amazing. We will eat there next time. Try them out for a good traditional taco!
