I highly recommend getting the crispy tacos here! They're salsa bar really spruces them up. Portions are large and food is made to quickly. Service was very friendly and the area clean and maintained. Ideal if you were looking for a casual meal in the area!

Delish fish tacos with rice and beans, plus complimentary chips and salsa. Sat outside and it was peaceful (even for a strip mall) and enjoyed a small bottle of wine. I ordered via counter service, but then they bring wine and food out to you. Very nice place for lunch.

Excellent tacos. Great choice of salsas (self serve). Quick and clean. Would've given it 5 stars, but the bathroom wasn't working.

We stopped here while passing through the area. It was so good! The machaca was sooo delicious! Some of the best I've had. Their salsas were amazing and the hot carrots and beans (both of which I'm real picky about) were top notch. My husband loved his as well. If we lived closer, this would be a regular spot for us. We live in San Diego so we know our taco shops! :)
