This is some of the best Mexican food I have had in my life. You can tell it is very authentic. The tacos are delicious and come with grilled cactus which I have never seen before. There's also two sauces and limes served with each taco. It's a small place that gives a "hole in the wall" vibe. Definitely not my last time coming here!

If you're ready for a lesson in ordering in Spanish, keep reading. This place is totally authentic, down to the aunties cooking in the kitchen. I've now been to this place twice and the mega flavors in the al pastor in the huge burrito I got made me come back for seconds. Nice change up fromChipotle! Check it out!

The food is probably one of the most authentic Mexican Mexican food I've had in Baltimore. Although, when I asked if the tacos came in 3s or single- I was told 3s. When we got home and opened our to go boxes we only had 1 taco. They do not have dining inside.. No tables but 4 bar stools facing the wall. I would like to try and give this place another try

This place deserves all the rave reviews. It's a total hole in the wall, the ladies who were working were surprised I spoke Spanish and their reaction was so cute. Definitely brush up on your Spanish if you don't already speak it because this is as authentic as it gets. I ordered the carnitas burrito, which is absolutely gigantic and stuffed full of fresh ingredients. My roommate ordered a queso enchilada because she's vegetarian. The women laughed at an enchilada only stuffed with cheese, but they made it perfectly. The hot sauce they give you is insanely hot and burns in a way that makes you simultaneously giddy and angry at yourself- I need to ask if I can get a huge container of it. Everything was decently priced, our order was $26 total including two drinks.

For good Mexican food you have to go to this place I highly recommend the chicken Milanesa tortas y Huraches.

Best bag for your buck when it comes to tacos! Very quick covid-19-safe service available. The chefs also were wearing masks inside. I tried the al pastor tacos which exceeded my expectations! Will have to come back to try more. Each taco is served with a generous amount of meat and lot of optional toppings making their portions really big!

I'm always excited to eat here and the past few times have been pretty disappointing. The most recent stop in was ok. For years I came here for tortas, dassit! They were stuffed with deliciously seasoned meat, on fresh bread and a great cheap treat for lunch or dinner. My favorites have always been carne asada and carnitas. My last visit they used carry-out style cheesesteak chopped beef in place of carne asada. It was overly salty and didn't taste like the authentic carne asada marinade at all. Remembering that experience, I opted for carnitas this time. The meat was tender but mostly bland in comparison to previous versions I've had here. I'll either go to the other location or not at all. I'm tired of trying.

Take home message: Hole in the wall Mexican food. Primary language of staff is Spanish which made ordering with my high school Spanish interesting. Solution: English menu and point to order!Ordered take-out: burrito al pastor and 3 chicken tacos and a side of guacamole. Definitely legit Mexican food. However, guacamole is blended and not traditional guacamole found at supermarkets and it's spicy. All/most food comes with small portion of guacamole too. If can't speak Spanish over the phone I'd recommend ordering takeout in person to avoid confusion.

Ordered Al Pastor Burrito. Watched them cook the pork in a frying pan, cut the veggies, and wrap the burrito by hand. Very fresh and amazing flavor in the pork. Point to what you want and they make it. Easy as that. Excellent neighborhood find.
