Gratamente sorprendidos por las porciones y el sazón de la comida. Muy ricos los tacos de pastor, chorizo, los burritos son muy grandes. Casi puede un burrito alimentar a dos personas. Los huaraches ricos también. Se encuentra a pie de carretera, quiza el lugar no es tan lindo a la vista pero el precio y el sabor lo valen.

Estuvimos buscando varios lugares para poder cenar algo rico y sin que fuera con precios muy altos. Los tacos y huaraches que fue lo que cenamos tenían suficiente de todo, nos gustó que la tortilla es echa al momento.

My honest review The food is very good except for the beef because it was hard and tasteless; but the chorizo and pork chop so good. What gives it the touch is the sauces too good don't say the macha uff delicious and the spicy habanero very rich flavor... yes I recommend it
