I’ve been meaning to try this place for quite some time now, especially since it’s in the same strip mall that my favorite liquor store (Star Liquors) is in, and finally made it there tonight. So many good things to choose from, but my wife and I went for our favorite Mexican choices: birria and fish tacos, and birria quesadillas with a side of rice and beans and some chips and guacamole. The chips were fresh out of the fryer and could have used a hit of salt but the guac was delicious, as was the birria taco, the fish (cod) taco, the birria quesadilla, and the rice and beans. Definitely worth a repeat trip where might might actually deviate away from our trusted favorites and try something new.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

On our travels from Nashville to Pittsburgh we found this incredible spot! If you like authentic Mexican with a twist, this is your spot. Well decorated and entertaining spot. Ramen was huge! Portions were great all around. Lots of lucha wrestling memorabilia all around the bar. Definitely recommend this spot to anyone.

I tried 3 tacos.Each tacos had 2 amazing fresh made tortillas. First was the Pastor tacos. The pork was seasoned perfectly, was tender and3had the right amount of cilantro and onions. Second was the Asada taco. Again, the steak was tender, portion was perfect and flavor was better than I anticipated. I could tell it would be good but, WOW! The final tacos was the Birria. Great size/portion and flavor. 3 Great sauce are also available to add if you want. Although the sauces are a great add to the tacos, these tacos have the flavor to stand alone! This place is my go to place for Mexican food.
