Service was great, food was excellent (I got Vegetarian combo 4, tres leches cake, and mango agua fresca). I love the decorations and will certainly be back.

They have the best street tacos. Hands down. They are simple and authentically made. I would choose these tacos over anyother ones in Raleigh. The family who works here is very kind. My family and I always come in and have a wonderful meal. I always recommend this place to anyone who asks! Stree tacos come with meat, onion and cilantro. I added a bunch of salsa to the top of my tacos.

This place is a Raleigh staple at this point. It’s the perfect quick and tasty Mexican joint that won’t disappoint. Service is always friendly and the food is always great! Huge fan of the fajita quesadilla.

My family has been going here for years, back before I had kids even. The people here are great, and the food is always good. It's your standard fare, nothing fancy, just executed well. I will say, they have my favorite chips in the triangle. Update- it's my 12 year anniversary, just had dinner here, and nothing has changed. Great food, super nice people. Can't beat it

First time eating here. The service was fast and friendly. They have a large menu with the typical items you see at Mexican restaurants with a few other choices.
