If you are on a budget but you want some good authentic tacos, this is your spot. 2 full plates with tacos rice and beans and only $15. Easily 2 smaller lunches if you portion it out. The food is delicious, the atmosphere is fun, and the service is excellent.

On 2/17/2026 Kushal D. had this to say:
Solid Mexican spot for some enchiladas or chimis. Overall the food was good and their menu is expansive. It's definitely a good spot for a quick bite to curb your Mexican craving. Beans are good, as is rice!
