“ Carnitas is what they do and the do them very well. They have handmade tortillas and wow! The taco was delicious without even adding anything else and that's how you know it's good carnitas. Once you add the salsa and Pico de Gallo, well all I have to say is you must try it. ”
“ The food is great and the handmade tortillas are tasty. Las aguas frescas aren't too sweet either. I recommend ordering by the pound when you come to eat. FYI on the parking, prices are a scam so try to park further away. ”

“ This place is more 7 stars, not just 5. The food which is pork only- we're talking all pork. You have a choice of carnitas only or a nice mix of skin, ears, nana sausage (pork tripe); but it all tastes great. Hand made tortillas then they load the tortillas up- I'm talking stacked with juicy succulent pork. You get an array of chilli salsas, four types of onion toppings. Basically they bring the tacos, you build the rest to your liking. The waitresses/waiters are fast and extremely courteous always at your service. Great place to eat, the food and salsas are fresh, proof is in the taste. ”
