Best tacos I've had outside of Mexico. Everything I had was excellent, this place the real deal. Simple street spot, no seeing, but can park in the lot across the street. Just at by my car. Definitely worth it. It was busy, but they're efficient and get people through fast. Meats, salsas, and service were all great

Its on a street corner, but don't let that change your mind.. the food is fantastic.. when you roll up and there a line that never really gets short, thats a good thing. Super fast service, fantastic food... you'll not be disappointed... worth the stop if you find yourself in the West Sacramento area. Plan on tailgating it, local street food at its best.

This is legit Mexican food. They take your order and prepare it quickly. I had the Al Pastor burrito and it was very good. Watching them slice it off the rotating split is fun to watch. My burrito was massive. Wil go again for sure

Best tacos I've had in Sacramento. The Al Pastor is clearly the star but the suadero is a close second for me. The habanero salsa is incredible, I always keep an extra little cup in the fridge for any other mean that needs a little flavorful spice. This review was made in connection with a Toast promotion.

Loved the tacos at this place. Parking across the street. People enjoying their food and a line up [that goes quickly] is always a sign that it’s good.

Incredible. DO NOT DRIVE BY HERE WITHOUT STOPPING! The food is amazing, simple, quick, and some of the best I've had since I left Southern California 8 years ago. A little Spanish goes a long way
