Food was so good. We had 2 Tacos de Birrias, 2 Tacos Al Pastor, and 4 Tacos Jalapenos. I loved the Al Pastor and my husband loved the Jalapenos. It's a small place, but so clean. There were only two people behind the counter, but they were so courteous and you could tell take pride in the food they make. We also drank El jugo de tamarindo and it was perfect. Not too sweet, not too bitter. We went there strictly because of their high rating online, and they deserve every star they have.

What a great addition to the area. 3 chicken tacos for 10, can't beat the price. Tacos were really good, next time I go i will ask for a little more cilantro & onions. The 2 side sauses were excellent as was the friendly fast service. Definitely recommend & will be back to try other menu items which I'm sure will be just as delicious

Hands down the best tacos in Elizabeth! The ONLY Mexican restaurant in town where they offer the "cochinita pibil" tacos. Absolute delicacy! If your looking for authentic mexican food, this is the place.

Excellent consistent take out food. Tacos are some of the best in Elizabeth. Highly recommend their birria and chicken! When we did a large takeout order with them and they made a minor mistake, they quickly corrected it to make it right (and leaving us with lots of leftover food). So yummy! Can’t recommend enough.

We loved it! The staff is so friendly and Edith is awesome. We ordered tacos al pastor, carnitas and birrias. The green sauce is delicious and the orchata is the best! The prices are really good. Definitely we recommend this place and come back soon!

Food was delicious! Authentic Mexican food. I had the beef birria tacos and it was one of the best I've had. It's located on a residential block.
