They should go back to just being a food truck. Walked in to sit for lunch. Waited almost an hour for our food. The guy was rude and told us we should call ahead because that’s what everyone does now. So, he’d rather serve the people who aren’t even there instead the ones in front of him. We won’t be returning.

If you’re looking for authentic Mexican, this is not the place to go to. Staff were friendly and it was cute inside! The vinegar-like taste in the steak tacos was overpowering. Tortillas were a little soggy. Pricey for tacos.

* This is not authentic Mexican food * I should’ve read the reviews before coming to save myself a trip, although I did see the star rating and it feels overrated. The chips and salsa were good and a nice sized portion, although the tortillas were over-fried. I ordered two pork tacos, a chicken and a fish: I wish I got two fish. I knew when they came out in flour tortillas that I was in for a big let down. The fish was beautifully cooked though, and did pair well with the mango ‘salsa’. The pork was under seasoned and a little watery. The chicken was very heavily seasoned with lime and dry/ tough/ chewy. The flavors didn’t pair well and everything is missing cilantro/ onion/ flavor, and the hot sauces available did nothing to help. Personally, the raw flour tortillas ruined the meal. This definitely caters to the area. I won’t be returning, but if you’re not a fan of typical tacos you may like it here.. Supporting small businesses is essential so at the very least try for yourself once!

This place started as a taco truck in 2011 and it was so popular that owner Haig Leonard opened this little gem of a restaurant in 2015. It's a small rustic space with indoor and outdoor seating. The staff are all friendly and efficient. Best of all, the food is fantastic, each item on the menu has rich blend of flavors and textures. We always start with their house made chips and salsa. And then my fav is the fish taco; white fish marinated in coconut milk and lime, dredged in cornmeal and fried, with a mango salsa, shaved cabbage and sour cream. But there isn't a loser on the menu. A must try for anyone who likes mexican food.

If you want to risk your fish tacos being over cooked and over fried get Monday-fridays if you want absolute PERFECTION every. single. time. with flaky tender loaded fish order on Saturdays and Sundays because that cook is amazing! never disappoints. I eat here very often and have always experienced this. Still optimistic they figure it out because this is my guilty craving and I drive over 40 minutes. Five stars on sat-sunday!
