About

With a 4.6-star rating, this cozy, casual eatery serves up authentic Mexican fare without breaking the bank. The quick service and tempting menu make it a popular choice among both locals and tourists for a laid-back lunch meetup with friends.
Enjoy well-seasoned carnitas, celebrated for their leaner meat, paired with flavorful red and green salsas garnished with onion and cilantro. Whether opting for tacos or ordering by the kilo, the options cater to various appetites. Don't miss trying the unique kekas de chicharrón and sesos.

Mencionan algunos que falta la cebolla y cilantro pero ya viene incluida en la salsa,no se que le pongan a sus tacos que no la ven,es parte d su identidad,hoy fui y la salsa era roja,aunque también me ha tocado la salsa verde que también está buena,puedes pedir por tacos o por kilo,además que tiene kekas de chicharrón y sesos
