“ This is my go to taco spot if you're looking for some authentic mexican food. The staff is friendly however the place is cash only and mostly spanish speaking so keep that in mind. I've honestly tried almost everything from their menu and it always hits the spot. You get a very generous portion size for a reasonable price. They are also open late which is very convenient. ”
“ 2nd time here. This place is close to my house and open till 2 am! Even Christmas Eve they did open. 1 st time I order was nacho and birria both ok. Not bad but not so good also less volume than some place after that i avoided order. But 2nd time was Christmas Eve don't have many choice after watching at miracle on 13th street. Around 11 they still open. This time cooker was different person! At home open the box it was different. Looks so attentive also more food. More tasty. I mean meat taste little different . I am so glad I choose here and they are open. I really recommend order nachos! It was tasty and fulfill my very hungry stomach. 1thig is both time I want to have lengua but they don't have it. May be late to order? If you don't have them regularly why still in a menu? Or always I will forget my hav meat?? ”
“ I got here around noon and saw three ladies busy cooking. I could tell that it's for a big order by the smell and the smoke from the food that filled this small taqueria. The exhaust system must not be working and I was surprised that the fire alarm wasn't triggered. One order of the tacos consists of 3 soft tortilla tacos filled with the fillings of your choice and the toppings. Plus a big whole jalapeño, cactus, radish, and lime slices. You definitely will not regret paying $9. ”
“ Little corner spot mostly for takeout...it's changed owners a few times since we've lived here and it's usually hit or miss. We decided to try it tonight and it was surprisingly great. The carne enchilada burrito and the al pastor torta were both delicious. Cash only. ”
“ Great Mexican food!!! Very authentic. So far I've had the tacos, tostadas and a chicken burrito; all very tasty. They have shredded pork, shredded chicken, beef or fish. I also highly recommend the horchata drink with any meal. EL HOMBRE highly recommends this restaurant for anyone craving true Mexican food. ”
