When I want a craving for shrimp tacos, this is where I go. They are awesome (love the sauce)! The rice and beans that I usually get with the tacos is good, as well.

My favorite place!! Awesome burritos and ceviche. Our go to is to get carne asada tacos, split a carne asada burrito, and have ceviche as an appetizer. Great prices. I forgot to post pictures because I was hungry, so not enough time for pictures. Lol I would recommend you check them out!! ...

The staff there have the best customer service I've ever had at a taco place. Also the chicharron is the best in the valley hands down. You absolutely have to try the sincronizada when you go there as well.

Have visited a couple of times. It may look small on the outside, but it's roomy enough with family style seating. The menu has a nice variety of items that are reasonably priced. So far, I've tried the burritos, adobada (pork), asada (beef) and pollo (chicken). They were packed solid with well seasoned meat, rice, beans, finely chopped cabbage, onion and cilantro. You also get a nice baggie with lime, cucumber, radish and a red and green salsa, again fresh made and a nice punch of heat. Everything is fresh made to order and well worth the wait. I should have taken pictures, but it was so good, I basically inhaled it before I had a chance.
