Hands down our absolute favorite taco place!! Definitely a hike in the wall place. Very authentic and family run. They have fresh fast tacos and plenty of other menu items. We always pick up extra food for other dinners and supplies from their butcher counter. $1.50 tacos on Tuesday is when we fill all the way up!

Walked in with my boyfriend for lunch today. We've been wanting to try this place since moving to Charlotte and we weren't disappointed. This restaurant is for the real foodies. They serve tacos, quesadillas, burritos, tortas and they have combo plates. Not to mention, they have an array of meats you can buy by the pound so you can cook it up at home. I had the chicken burrito (basic I know) but I saw them making one right in front of me and I had to try. Inside the burrito: rice, chicken, pico, cheese and beans. The tables are shared tables. So if you go in and eat solo, someone may sit across from you. If you don't prefer that, then get it to go! They have an assortment of Mexican beers and drinks you can get as well. It was delicious! Can't wait to go back and try more things!

I am Asian and not native to the system. I walk up to the meat counter and ordered a pound each of barbacoa and carnitas. I wasn't informed that it came mixed with other body parts. After receiving a ticket, I waited in line to pay for the food. When I showed up in front of the cashier ready to pay, she called out something in Spanish and pretended that she didn't see me. I am obviously lost on what I'm supposed to be doing at this moment, but she proceeded to check out another customer in front of me. There was quite a crowd there on a Friday evening, but thankfully, a decent human being (a customer waiting in line) told me that she'll call the number on the ticket to ring up. Be sure to revisit your Spanish numbers to remind yourself of what number to expect. When my number was called in Spanish, I went up to pay and also ordered a lb of corn tortillas and their hot sauce. The store felt like chaos with so many people getting food after work. The lack of directions in English made it even more complicated to navigate. Aside from the negative customer service, the meats that we received were really dry as well as combined with other body parts that weren't exactly to our liking (snout pieces and etc). The tortillas on the other hand look perfectly uniform, so much that they might just be the store-bought versions warmed up. The hot sauces were good and spicy. These were ok in tacos, but better as a queso dip because the dryness of the meats didn't affect the texture. I came here based on the reviews, but this was a disappointment given that the meats were really dry and the tortillas might be store-bought--yet don't quote me on that.

They got the jams here. Anything chicken or steak and you'll be quite pleased. Tortas are nice and fluffy and their rice is slap city. Parking is always a negotiation and seating can get hectic during prime time at lunch so be prepared to eat on your lap. Big groups will hard pressed at lunch if you number more than 4. But man the menu is oh so worth it. You won't regret it...

I love coming here, sometimes it gets busy but they don't lack flavor. It's one of those spots that's small and may lack attractiveness but it's affordable and tasty. They have taco Tuesday as well which is always a plus!!

If you like authentic Mexican food, this place is so good! Heard about it from friends and decided to try it. Well that was an excellent recommendation! It is not only a restaurant to get cooked food, but it is also a market, where you can purchase grocery items. The tacos? AMAZING! So simple, yet so great! And they also have chicharrons, which are also AMAZING! I normally buy them both when I go. There are food cases with all types of foods to choose from - ribs, chicken, rice, etc.Inside, there are small tables on the market side, if you decide to dine in. If you go for lunch, there will be a line, but it will move very fast. You get a ticket for your order and pay when you receive your food. Above the prepared food, there is a tv screen that scrolls between English and Spanish, so you know what you would like to order. The servers making the plates are super quick and friendly. You won't be disappointed if you try this place!

This hidden gem is a must do in Charlotte. We came for taco Tuesday and were welcomed with the best service. You can choose the toppings of your taco ans can get as many as you want for $1.50 a piece. We also got the rice and beans on the side which is served in a soup cup. I think it was the best rice and beans I ever had in Charlotte! Go check out the local business. Can't wait to try more of their menu items.
