I read about this place on Facebook and IG and decided to check it out early on Easter Sunday.Drove up about 10 minutes before opening hour and there were already 3 people waiting with a van full of people.I placed my order for a pound of carnitas and barbacoa each. Everyone waiting was given a small carnitas taco. I was able to try it with the salsa on the counter. Salsas were delicious.The food was good & as we don't eat carnitas and barbacoa often. The staff was nice too.

Delicious food !!! Amazing service!!!! The owner always gives us a taquito to try the meat and the sauces you get to choose the one you would like. (Recommend the green salsa) Definitely recommend the carnitas and the barbacoa!!! Next time I will try the al pastor meat!

So far the best carnitas I have had. The service was great. Was greeted with a delicious taco and a mini salsa bar. It's a to-go only shop and I hope they expand to make it a taco shop because it's my new favorite place. The price was great and well worth it.

Food was delicious!!!! The service was amazing, very kind! The restaurant is small but it's to-go only so it makes sense. I would definitely recommend and go again. This had actually been recommended to us by someone, glad we gave them a chance! Oh, and my 18 month old approves lol if that means anything to anyone.

They welcome you with a taco while you decide what you want to get. I told them I was new and he told me how I can order, by the pound or a dollar amount or taco. I went with $5 carnitas and $5 barbacoa. Drove 40 minutes back home with my car smelling delicious. Finally came home and realized it comes with everything! Salsa, fresh warm tortillas, onions, cilantro, lemon, jalapeños. Everything was delicious!!!!

I was greeted by smiling faces as soon as I stepped in! Customer service was a 10/10.As for the carnitas, I ordered the mixed option. The skin and stomach were soft. The rib meat was tender. Best thing was their homemade sauces and tortillas. Could really taste the difference. Great stuff!
