    This place is a wonderful hidden gem! I say hidden because from all appearance sake, you could easily miss this great spot from the road. The inside operates as a little grocery type store as well as a taco stand. The seating is very sparse so I would recommend getting tacos to go.

    I ordered the chicken, carnitas, and al pastor. They were all AMAZING! It's so hard to find authentic street tacos and this place knew how to do them right. We also ordered chips and guacamole. The guac was so fresh with just the right amount of spice!

    The service was super fast and efficient. We were on the road with our tacos in no time.

    The pricing does seem a bit high at first, but I assure you the tacos are really good sized and worth every penny.

    I highly recommend!

    The food here is amazing! What looks like a hole in the wall houses some of the best homemade Mexican food I have ever eaten!
    I had the Al Pastor tacos - 3 homemade tacos perfectly seasoned with cilantro and spice. Also had the guacamole - a unique type of guacamole - not slimy but wonderful texture. My friend had Arroz con Pollo - this was made with fresh vegetables as well as the traditional chicken and rice - rave reviews!
    I give it a 4 ONLY because the bathrooms ate outdoors!!

    Surprisingly good tacos and food for how strange the location is. It definitely feels a little strange going into what looks like a gas station for dinner but once you're inside, it is mostly seating and an order counter. The food was a little overpriced in my opinion - for such as casual, take-out place I was expecting the options to be a little cheaper but they definitely add up fast. I thought the food was pretty good, though. The taste was good - a good balance of seasonings and good portions, but overall nothing that super stood out. I think the novelty comes from the fact that pretty good food comes from such an unassuming place. Staff was quick and to the point - not especially friendly but not unwelcoming, either. I'd like to try their horchata, sometime.
