I would describe it as a food truck turned brick and mortar. Not your typical Nc Mexican place. It was very clean and they had a good health rating. Simple interior. Service was friendly. Menu was limited. They didn’t have the dish I ordered but the tacos were very good. $4 a taco. No alcohol. Good for lunch or a quick bite. Food was very good.

Stopped in to this new start up restaurant. There are some "American" items, we opted for traditional Mexican, chilaquiles for me and tamales for the hubby. Very satisfying! And yes, traditional. We'll definitely return.

Great food, great pricing, great service, everything was nice. The waiter was polite and super nice, the food was awesome and amazing, the tacos is 1000/10. This is definitely somewhere my family has been looking for food. We are coming back again!!

We ate there for the first time tonight. The owners have renovated the building and it looks very nice. The food was outstanding and the service was awesome too! Everyone was so nice! I would definitely recommend!

You can't beat these tacos. Homemade corn tortillas, juicy meat, and fresh condiments, all perfectly seasoned and piping hot. Yes, you're going to have to wait for perfection. Yes, it's worth it. If you're wondering whether to come here, stop wondering and start driving!

In a word, delightful. Family diner vibes, friendly people and world class food. I devoured the quesabirria and my husband had the enchiladas with steak, and for once in his life needed a box because it was so good and filling. Everything was clearly made with a lot of heart. So excited this place has opened close to us, looking forward to trying breakfast next!

Ate here this morning for the first time and had breakfast. Absolutely delicious, wonderful service and piping hot food! We’re actually going back for dinner tonight! Update: back for dinner tonight and it did not disappoint! My husband enjoyed the fajitas and I had chicken quesadilla and both were absolutely delicious and very well prepared! We will definitely be back again and again! We highly recommend!
