Happy hour 4-6 and 9-close. Pricey side of taco world but good flavors. Happy hour isn’t much but if you go on a Monday for $8 margs or other day of the week they have a deal is bang for your buck. The lamb CRUjiente taco had awesome flavor and the crunch of the tacos is something you don’t get often or rarely. The salsas had delicious flavors and heat. The margs are good and the service was great and on point.
Great selection of tacos!! They were out of few of the items on the menu as we went a little after 9pm, will return to try the others. They are expensive but worth it, I loved the tortillas! I wish the place was not so loud though..
Really fun date night spot. We loved everything we tried. I find it a bit on the pricey side so just 4/5. Go on a Tuesday for taco Tuesday or Wednesday for all day happy hour!Dine in: YesOutdoor seating: No
Went there with my family really is a tiny place good service happy hour Marg ok a little watered down. Guac was good tiny portion for the price short ribs appetizer was dry some what tasty. Lamb & pork tacos were good Korean fried chicken tasty. Be warned drinks are pricey. I was expecting amazing it wasn't. But it's a lively place with different taco offerings. Prefer more authentic than fusion style tacos now that I've tried these. Worth a try bring $$$ if you're going to drink though.
The most phenomenal Taco experiences I've had in the last 3 years. I've been in a good mexican food dry spell. Went with the a friend in the culinary industry who frequents this place. Pro trip make a reservation or get there early. Food experiences are always better with Industry friends. For starters we had the salsa trio. The flavors of the salsas were amazing as if you're Abuela made them. They pasilla is very mild, the Habenero isn't to spicy. Mix the two. You have this perfect medium. We also had the white bean short rib app, it may have only been available when I went on June. This was the most tender short rib I've ever had. We shredded the short rib. then used the chips from the salsa trio, had the fanciest bougie nachos ever. Dipped the chips in the beans, scooped a little short rib. Then some of the salsa trio, it was spectacular. The plan was to order this next time & just put it all on top of the chips, have fancy nachos. We ordered 3 tacos each. I went with pork, lamb, Korean fried chicken. Eat the KF Chicken last. The gochujang has a very strong taste & can over power things so finish with it, you won't be disappointed. The crunch of the tortilla the tenderness of the pork. The pico Verde it all just works. They go together & make a flavor experience. The 1 thing I can say about these tacos is you don't need to add anything, they're great just as they come. There is nothing wrong with adding anything to em but there's no need for it. After demolishing it I was excited for the lamb. Another Taco just right as is. The red onion have the perfect sweet & pickled bite compliments the sauce & the tenderness of the lamb perfectly. Even with jalapeno it wasn't to much spicy just well balanced & married flavors. Each 1 of these reminded me of something an Abuela made all day in the kitchen for her mijos. I kept having that feeling. The KF chicken is a departure for the taco purest but that guys missing out. Perfectly crispy chicken, it held up to being eaten last, lost no crunch. The sauce has a nice garlic & mild chili spice. It's the perfect mix of Asia & Mexico on a tortilla. We also went on a cocktail adventure along the way. Now I'm usually not a tequila or whiskey drinker. Traumatic experience with tequila in my twenties. Whiskey normally turns me into the hulk. Now the mezcal Margarita was the first venture back into tequila since I was 21. I was afraid. This was the best trip back. No tequila flavor just fresh refreshing summer cocktail. All the right notes. Not overly sweet either, that was the hit about all the cocktails no sugary drinks just fresh light summer drinks. The cruising together is going to get me in trouble. I could drink those all day long & not even realize I was drinking alcohol. Just a light perfectly sweet strawberry lemonade type cocktail. Be sure to dip your cayenne lemon in the cocktail. I couldn't drink this fast enough. Sampled a few tequilas straight & whiskey straight but these were the star. Now the Japanknees bees was another level of whiskey cocktail. I've been to a Johnny Walker taste testing event, this was by far the smoothest whiskey I've ever sampled. Sampled the whiskey straight had it in cocktail. I can honestly tell you this whiskey had none of the burn of a traditional whiskey but a mouth feel and a smoothness that I've never experienced in a whiskey. The honey the whiskey the lemon they just marry in the glass to make this fantastically lightly sweet whiskey cocktail that I didn't know I needed in my life. If I were to rank these cocktails in order 1. bees 2. the cruising 3. mezcal. As if the meal couldn't go to another level they bonoffee hand pie. Wow. The flakiest of crusts along with banana filing. This is not a super sweet dessert the whip cream adds the perfect amount of sweet. Another treat your Abuela made. I was tempted to go in the kitchen in the back to find her. Can't wait to try the new tacos as the menu has been updated since my visit gonna have to hit my buddy up to go again soon.

Visited on a work trip and was told this was the place to find the best tacos in Phoenix. Definitely agree! Amazing flavors and fantastic presentation. Highly recommend!
New favorite place for happy hour! This may be a “tacos only” place, but each taco has so much flavor!! Each taco takes you on a completely different adventure than the last. The tacos are small and pricey, but totally worth it! The details that go into the flavors all the way down the the plating were just impressive. One of the best margaritas I’ve ever had. You have to try the Korean Fried Chicken, Pork Belly, Seared Shrimp, and Braised Short Rib Tacos!! The Queso & Guac were solid choices as well. We can’t wait to go back and try the Smothered Frites Street Fries. Highly recommend for some artisanal tacos!!
Good tacos on a Saturday night. I was split between the fish and Texas wagyu, but I gotta hand it to them it was super tender and the flavor was great with the horseradish. I’m sad I didn’t order the ceviche, it will wait for me another day. The surprise was a great crunchy potato taco. Good service, thank you Steven for explaining the dishes to our party.
Another example of how you cannot judge a book by its cover. This place is in a busy strip mall with small frontage, but do not let that fool you. Besides some of the most friendly and best service ever from Laura, the food and drinks are balanced, delicious, and worth coming back for. So much that we came back the next day because we could not stop talking about the Korean Fried Chicken taco and Pineapple Bacon margarita. If you are in the area and are thirsty or hungry this is well worth the stop. If you lucky enough to get Laura you will agree with me that this place is definitely a 6 out of 5.
