" I stumbled upon this hidden gem while searching for authentic tacos in Charlotte, and I'm so glad I did! The flavors are extraordinary, reminiscent of the best taquerias in Mexico. I tried the carnitas tacos and they were juicy and packed with flavor. The salsa options were fantastic too—don't skip on the green salsa! The ambiance is unpretentious but cozy, perfect for a casual meal. I can’t wait to take my friends here to share the love for great food! " (*Curated Review*)
