" One of the best spots for authentic Mexican food I've found since moving here! The ambiance was legit, but the line was quite a wait. I recommend doing takeout if you can. That way, you can enjoy the food without the hassle. " (*Curated Review*)

" Absolutely fantastic experience! The staff is delightful, and the food is second to none. I was particularly impressed by the barbacoa—it was beautifully moist and flavorful. The lines might be long, especially during peak hours, but it’s well worth the wait. Just remember to bring cash! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was really looking forward to my visit, especially after hearing positive reviews. I tried the chicharrones, and while they were crispy and well-seasoned, the service left something to be desired. If you are patient and appreciate good food, this place is for you, but don’t expect to get in and out quickly. " (*Curated Review*)

" I had their chicharrones and carnitas for the first time—unbelievably good! The customer service was welcoming, but I did have to wait a bit longer than expected. Totally worth it in the end, so I’ll keep suggesting to get there early! " (*Curated Review*)
