Siempre ha sido mi lugar favorito para comer tacos, los de suadero son buenísimos, pero cuando costaban $11 los daban mejor servidos, ahora que cuestan más te dan más tortilla y verdura que carne jajajajaja. Ojalá puedan mejorar ese aspecto, eso si saliendo los flanes que venden afuera son buenísimos.
