Great new discovery! If you’re looking for awesome Mexican food this is the place! We tried the lunch special: 3 small tacos Al Pastor, Carnitas & Tinga (this was our favorite, meat was tender with a lot of flavor) served with a green sauce which it was delicious. Also, includes a soda everything for $10. Love the decor & the vide with plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. The staff were super nice & friendly! Excellent service! Can’t wait to return and try more things!

I think a random google search during my taco phase helped me find this place. I bookmarked it and the rest is history. Since then I’ve been here over a dozen times and have yet to have a bad drink or meal. The first visit I played it safe and ordered the carnitas bowl 🤤 w/a side cup of sour cream and a margarita. The second time I did the same bowl but with the Tamarindo - a margarita kinda drink (warning the rim isn’t salt - it’s some spicy 🌶️ red peppery flaky blend I didn’t care for. I have a pallet issue with the whole sweet/salty & salty/spicy trend. Next time I’d definitely ask for sugar sub) After that on another visit I tried the fish tacos which was amaze-balls!! I also had the Brujos margarita. I won’t keep doing down the list but I will jump to last night which I visited but stepped away from my usual carnitas and opted for the chorizo bowl. It was slightly spicy but pleasantly so, full of flavor from the sour cream, beans, tomatoes - there was definitely a party 🥳 in my mouth. Servings were amazing as usual. You will leave feeling satisfied but not disgustingly stuffed. I think you’d appreciate that leaves room for desert if you skipped the appetizers. On the drink I did something new - Picasso Paloma which was amazing and got to the point if you get my drift. A nice buzz without getting drunk. It’s exactly what I like when I want a drink but not a few. Overall the value is there if you compare price points now a days. Often times you’re paying more and the servings in some places shrink or remain the same. This is my hidden gem that I am not ashamed to say I kinda gate keep on and don’t tell EVERYONE about. I will say that if your curious about it just go! You won’t regret it at all. Even if you find you went a little over your budget at least it was on good food and excellent service + atmosphere. The place is always clean, bathrooms are always tidy (there’s 2: one tiny closet - avoid that one ladies, you have to be a magician to not break a sweat trying to move around and not let your tush hit anything. The second one much larger.) and the ladies behind the bar are super sweet that’s why I always dine at the bar. They’re super attentive and get you anything you need very quickly. If you go I hope you enjoy!! 10/10 highly recommended. *Ive added pics of all the items I tried during multiple visits including a steak burrito bowl I didn’t mention. I think it’s el pastor (don’t quote me on the name but it was definitely steak!)

Order for pick up at Brujos. They seem to do very well since they were here. I got Carne Asado Tacos, Choriza Tacos and Carne Asada. I like the Tacos but feel so so with Carne Asada. They have seats outside the restaurant and I saw lots of people like to hang out.
