Really great pupusas. Chicken is my favorite. I also like the tacos. Served simply. Call ahead and pick up.

This place is awesome! Little shack on the side of Colfax with a tight parking lot. No indoor seating but there is a outdoor side patio. Very smart of them and you'll understand why in the next couple of sentences. The food here is banging! I ordered the Pupusas De Asada and Al Pastor Burrito and although I was farting my way through each bite, I was loving it. Pupusas so fluffy and crispy and the burrito was loaded. The Al Pastor was so delicious I'll probably get double next time with less rice and beans. I'm still farting as I type this, but wow, this place is a must go.

Spectacular. Magnifique. Simple, wholesome tacos in this hole in the wall establishment that serves authentic quality tacos with all of the trimmings. Al Pastor is their specialty, closely followed by juicy carne asada and spicy chorizo. The tortillas must be hand made or made that day - so warm and fresh. At $3 a taco you get quality and a decent portion. Looking forward to another excuse to be in the neighbor hood to stop by and have a little slice of Al Pastor-ness Goodness #YUM

Months I've been driving past this place and finally had some time to go in. It's a teeny tiny place. I mean 3-4 people max. This is a 1st for me where you order, they give a number, and you wait in the car for delivery. There's outside dining area, but nothing inside. The carne asada tacos were delicious. We also had the chicken torta for the kids and that left untouched.

This place is luckily nearby. They prepare everything fresh right in front of you. The meat is superior...all of it. The veggies are prepared fresh for every order. All of their sauces & salsas are unique and delicious ...but can vary in heat day to day depending of course on the fresh peppers involved. Tacos, burritos , and papusas are the main items. If you've never tried a papusa they say this is the spot. I like the cheese one myself. I also recommend the smothered burrito...their meat is better than the most expensive Mexican restaurants I have tried. I really can't give any other suggestions other than go in your first time to see just how clean & fresh the food is.

Go there for the tasty tacos and burritos and don't expect much from the decor or surrounding area. It is in a shady area on Colfax...when I went there and ate outside on their patio, there was a woman yelling profanity at another woman crossing the street. Anyways the tacos and burritos were very tasty for a decent price. If I come back, I'll probably just order to go and eat at home.
