To our surprise, Yelpers gave it four stars, so we said let's go!
The building is literally in the middle of a neighborhood and doesn't look like much from the outside, let alone the inside.
When you walk in, head to the right. That's where the tables are to sit and order. There is actual table service. It's a tiny little grocery store that seems to carry authentic Mexican groceries also. Once we sat down, we were greeted with menus, chips and warm salsa...which is the way of having salsa served.
We had read in the reviews how great the tacos were, so we skimmed the large menu and headed straight for the tacos. You literally can not beat the price!!! $1.75-$2.00 for one taco.
We ordered Tripe, Barbacoa, Chorizo, Lengua, and Asada. WOW! I am a fan for sure. If the tacos are this good, then I can't wait to try the other things on their menu the next time I go back. I had tried a different type of beer while I was there from Modello that sounded interesting. It was a beer flavored with tomatoes, salt, lime, tamarind, and chipotle pepper. Yum! I know it sounds gross because it's a flavored BEER, but to me, it tasted like a fizzy Bloody Mary. It tasted great with my tacos.
Don't judge a book by its cover...this place has awesome food and we will be back!!
