“ Food is definitely authentic and tasty! They had a Banda playing when we went in which added to the fun. Staff is efficient and friendly checking in multiple times. Place was packed but we were able to get a table. Definitely will be retuning to try some of the other items on the menu! ”
“ This review is for the outdoor dining only. I've been visiting from L.A. for the past few months and finally came across this gem and I can honestly say that we had not one issue with everything we ordered. In fact I couldn't stop saying "that's tasty" ha prices were a little high but you get what you pay for. Definitely my go to when I'm back in town. ”
“ Monday tacos to start the year. Monday special 4 tacos and a drink horchata, fresa o piña colada 9.99 plus tax and great place, if you can get a seat when it is busy. When they're busy it is hard to find parking but a spot worth trying. Def come when they're grilling the meats outside at night. ”
“ There is definitely a language barrier however they are so kind and patient. The Shrimp Tacos are TO DIE FOR!! I really like their salsa when they do bring the chips and salsa. I go here at least twice a week the Aguas are delicious also! ”
“ I've been wanting to try this place for awhile because I think it's the only place in Kent with birria tacos (and cheese ones as well). And boy was I pleasantly surprised! The tacos were realllly good and juicy. I also tried their shrimp tacos and they were great as well. I think their drinks (agua frescas) are made from scratch and not the usual powder that you get at most places. And they have a great green sauce! My boyfriend and I have been on the prowl for a good taco place in Kent and I think we found it. They have so many different kinds of tacos here that other restaurants in Kent don't usually offer. I would recommend this place to any of my friends and family - even a stranger! Side note: this isn't broadcasted on their yelp page or Facebook page but they have a drive through apparently as well. ”
“ I gave this place a shot, they have been open for dining inside and outside since Saturday, June 6th with limited capacity. I saw some of their pictures online on Facebook and decided to give them a shot, and i did not regret it. I had the Birria Tacos and cheesy tacos, as well as their shrimp tacos I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND any of these options.Their sauces were really good and spicy for those that can handle the pain which was a plus for me. The owner is very friendly, give them a shot support your local business you won't regret it. ”
