      I ordered Shrimp Fajita. Shrimps were small but taste ok. Rice and beans were ok, too. not too salty, soggy or mushy. Tortillas are home made. Moist and soft. I loved it. Better than average, but nothing special.

      Servers were friendly and welcoming.

      Floor, Tables and chairs were clean.

      So glad I found this place. It doesn't look like much from the outside, but don't let that stop you from visiting. They have a good amount of seating inside. They make their own tortillas for their quesadillas and they have huitlacoche and flor de calabaza!!! I deeply miss my usual taqueria I used to go to in the city, but this has become a great replacement. I modify my quesadilla and add onions, cilantro and lime and it tastes almost identical to my favorite spot in the city. Rice and beans are good and the taco fillings are fresh. The carne asada is my favorite meat so far. They have a large menu and I plan to try their other offerings, but it will be hard to not order my go-to!

      Terrific food and friendly staff. This is a small restaurant tucked into the corner of a strip mall, and would never have seen it or tried without yelp. Plain but clean inside, everything is fresh made.

      Fresh made quacamole, warm chips, two salsas
      Chicken and chorizo tacos

      The worst tamales I've ever had. I tried calling the place to let them know my food was no good and no one answered.

      The food is great what more can I say. The store a little hard to find in a small strip mall off Cass Ave.. The folks inside are good people give it a try! I like the online ordering. Oh the tamales not on the online are killer.

      Spectacular! Best "costillas en chile" (pork ribs in Chile morita)
      I've ever eaten in the Chicago area.
      I've never had something this good in Pilsen, 26th Street or anywhere else in the area. Diverse, creative ...almost exotic menu items. My wife had a mole dish that was outstanding!!!! We were incredibly impressed. Considering that we eat out every day and frequent Mexican restaurants often , that is saying a lot. Will have to find an excuse to head north to this area more often. Kudos to the owners. Fantastic!

      Talk about a hidden treasure. I had the address and my GPS going and still blew past it. It's in a strip mall and is barely visible from the main road. But if you find it and go in, I think you'll be fairly impressed.

      I'm almost always going to approve of a Mexican place/taqueria if all I see are Mexicans or Mexican-Americans working and eating there when I walk in, as they tend to know better than I do what authentic food looks and tastes like. And indeed I was the only Caucasian person in the joint. It's not a big place, but there's adequate seating, you order at the counter, and the food comes quickly.

      I had three tacos - two barbacoa and one al pastor. I asked for salsa roja with them and got a couple of small cups of what seemed like your standard tomatillo sauce. It was a little spicy, which I like, but for the non initiated, be careful, it'll add some fire to whatever you're eating. Also be careful with cilantro - if you've never had it before, maybe ask for it on the side and try a small amount. Some people are actually genetically predisposed to hate the taste of cilantro - did you know that? Onions are also standard, and I usually order the tacos without them.

      Everything put together cost like $12, with drink. So I was pleased. Good barbacoa is hard to find for some reason, and theirs was really good, bordering on outstanding. I'd like to come back and try some other things on the menu. I'll bet there are some other treasures in there.

      I won't be ordering here again. I got the chicken mole enchilada dinner. The rice tasted burnt, beans were runny and the enchiladas weren't seasoned. I couldn't eat it. I'm disappointed because I chose this place because it has pretty good reviews.
