Gus L.June 1, 2014It's not just a drunken late night taco spot, it's a mostly take out spot that I believe have some of the best tacos on that side of town. Please get the Barbacoa and carnitas tacos!! Yum yum!!!
Megan NarulaNovember 4, 2015Good late night fast food mexican. There's a guy outside with a stand selling his own tacos too...weird. cheap and tasty!
Trust me when I tell you: the steak supreme burrito is incredible. Especially between the hours of 12-3 AM.
Caryn JendroApril 20, 2013Had high hopes for the chile relleno taco, but it was a major let down. Not much flavor and super greasy- gooey fried instead of crispy. But the horchata is homemade and pretty good.
Cheap, fast, and delicious tacos! $1 tacos on Mondays and Tuesdays.
When it's 2am and I've had too much to drink, all I want is a taco. This is the place for that
Antony DemekhinApril 14, 2010Get the guacamole. If it's after 2am the employees forget what "portion" means and give you a pound of guac every time. This is a good thing.
Christopher MarxApril 8, 2012Warning: they use filler in their quesadillas. You'd expect cheese and maybe meat. Carrots and potatoes don't belong there. Period.
- Lisa VJanuary 14, 2014$1 Taco Mondays and Tuesday's....but if you're a vegetarian, this doesn't apply :( >:(
ShaenaJune 3, 2013Waited 15 minutes for a freakin taco and quesadilla to be made, then was asked what I ordered because they fucked up the order. Also, spotted 3 employees on their phones with no food on the grill. 👎
Dana JensenSeptember 29, 2014Ordered a few different things and in each case the meat was fine but drowned in raw onion.
- Steak tacos at 2:45pm? Don't mind if I do. Great for late night drunk food
I had the $6.00 dinner special. I think maybe I should have gone to White Castles instead.
Lazer PennJune 2, 2013I can't understand these people and even if I could, I can't hear them because their dumb mariachi music is up louder than a Led Zeppelin concert.
Ericka CarterJuly 29, 2013It was ok, the meat was kinda bland the toppings had more flavor then the meat.
Alex ThornSeptember 28, 2012This place is absolute GARBAGE! SOGGY & BLAND TACOS. Can't believe it but taco bell is better
Jay SmallApril 10, 2012Disgusting...stay away..dudes discussed what some mystery meat was before throwing on grill to make my taco..i threw it away
Liset NovaMarch 8, 2013The girl here seriously is retarded. Worst customer service ever. Had to ask for things multiple times. And she STILL expects a tip. Heck no!!!
Saraie RodriguezNovember 30, 2012Horrible service. They didn't even add beans to the nachos and you can't use a credit card.
Nicole MoriscoNovember 6, 2011Didn't get my order right, $11 for a 3 taco dinner?!? Not as good as expected. Id rather just get taco bell
- Neil FryAugust 24, 2013Getting a steak taco at 12:47 was the best decision I've made in the last 3 weeks.
