Great hidden gem, we stopped here after hiking. I had the sope de asada and a al pastor taco with a guava agua fresca. The sope was my favorite, paired with the red salsa.

Some of the best mexican i have ever had. 2 of the tacos filled me up. Salsas are fresh. I loved the salsa verde ans i usually wont touch it but this was delish. Tortillas homemade and fresh. All the condiments were fresh and the area clean. Covered seating and great music. Highly recommend and tbh if i wasnt moving away soon it would become my new addiction. Give them your business. You wont be disappointed.

Food was amazing! Very authentic! Sopes were so good! Carne asada had the best flavor I had in all of Oregon! Menudo was very good as well, the meat was very tender melts in your mouth! Burritos are amazing too!

Amazing food! Consistency and quality every time. We LOVE this place and have it often. The enchiladas and pastor tacos are my favorite. Hands down the best pastor locally. Even my kids ask for this place for dinner!

Great tacos. The tortillas taste handmade and the salsas are full of flavor, with one bringing some serious heat. Will definitely be back.

Tacos amazing. Service wonderful. Portion: lovely. Price terrific. My new favorite go-to Mexican restaurant! Thank you for an awesome dinner. ;) Edit: I would not get their cheese enchilada plates. They are dry (not saucy) which is definitely not what I'm used to. They also dont use normal cheese. Its weird and not like cheese at all.

I've tried a variety of things here and have to say, it never disappoints. Today, I had the chicken quesadilla, and I don't think I've ever had a quesadilla so packed with meat! Absolutely delicious!
