Recently discovered this family owned restaurant about a year and a half ago, and I cannot eat carnitas tacos anywhere else! Every other taqueria offers al pastor, or spicy pork, and rarely carnitas. But this place has carnitas and it’s my go to! I always order takeaway so I cannot speak about the delivery experience from here but I doubt it’s as bad as others make it out to be? Sometimes it’s not the restaurant’s fault but that’s neither here nor there. The interior is painted a light, bright turquoise, and it’s spacious and clean. They have minimal seating but there are a few tables and chairs if you choose to dine in but takeaway and delivery is the vibe here. There’s a fridge full of drinks like Jarrito’s and agua frescas, and of course regular sodas, and some Mexican snacks on a shelf if you’d like. This restaurant is cash only! But they also take Zelle, which is great because I sadly rarely carry cash these days so I love the convenience of being able to pay through Zelle. I usually order ahead to pick up and just give my name to the counter person. Sometimes though I interact with the lady at the front and she’s always very sweet to me. Sometimes, her older kids are there helping out too and they’re very chill and friendly. The chef is also super nice and is always smiling, you can tell he is passionate about cooking and food. Onto the food, I always order 3 carnitas tacos, sometimes only 2 because the chef hooks it up and does not skimp on the pork in each taco. So depending how hungry I am, I alternate between 2 or 3 tacos. The pork is always tender, juicy, and flavorful. I also get a side of salsa verde which always pairs nicely with the tacos and adds a little spicy kick to it. The sauce always tastes fresh and homemade. You can tell it’s homemade because the spice level varies from each time I order it. Their son warns me if the pepper’s they used are on the spicier side that day, so I appreciate that because I can't handle super spicy. I also recently started ordering tinga tostada and have been loving that too. The tostada is crisp and not oily, and the toppings are even and well distributed on top. The tinga is never dry, which can be an issue with chicken dishes, but that’s never happened to me when I order from here. My husband is also a big fan of this restaurant and he orders nachos literally every single time. The chips from here are so delicious, crunchy, flavorful, not oily, and the guac is also great. My husband also loves to order the shrimp or chicken burrito and highly recommends them to anyone. Sometimes, they offer orders of tamales and I’d never tried tamales before but took a chance and ate tamale rajas for the first time last year and again, I can’t find anywhere else that I like as much as the tamales from here. So if you see that they’re offering tamales, order some!! You won’t regret it. Overall, I highly recommend this restaurant. It’s one of my favorites when I’m craving good, reliable authentic Mexican food. The authenticity and flavor is more important than anything else for me. Many places cut corners and skimp out on the flavor or do fusion-y things with their cuisine but this place offers no fuss Mexican cuisine. They’re reasonably priced and I am happy to support local businesses like this one. I implore you all to check them out for yourself and give them a chance despite their mixed reviews in the past. The food is absolutely worth it, otherwise I wouldn't be a regular.

A little pricey but food is really good. Veggie burrito has lots of diff veggies, it’s big and filling. The beans here are my fav and I’ll only get refried beans at this place.
