Tracy Turbeville-ColafrancescoAugust 28, 2014Tacos are authentic and great. I had carnitas and pastor.... Pastor wins if your in the mood for pork. Nice BIG glass of watermelon water was refreshing break from August heat. Highly recommended!

Linda BarrientosSeptember 17, 2017Everything is absolutely delicious and it's authentic Mexican food. Try the chicken fajita, easily sharable for two people and they even give you rice, beans, etc. The horchata water is a must!
Hannah HarringtonJuly 21, 2015This place is 100% authentic. It truly is Orlando's Best Kept Secret. The service is great, the food is exceptional, as well as the environment. Try the "California" and then some sopapillas!
Harsh SinghSeptember 7, 2015I am writing this review as we eat. All the reviews are spot on. Very authentic taste. Excellent staff. Good quantity food. Loved it all and surely come back again
Francisco ArrietaOctober 11, 2014Go with the chips, guac and queso as a starter and then go with the Pastor Chimichangas for the main course! Awesome food for a great price
- Try the Chicago Style burrito, it is excellent! I had the one with shredded beef. Topped with the habenero slices. Real authentic Mexican food! The prices can't be beat. Very friendly staff.
Matt FerrariMarch 12, 2017Hole in the wall, but the food and service was great! They have wonderful fresh soup, beer, and they do not rush you out the door. Highly recommended!
Beth MacSwainSeptember 11, 2012Ordered a bunch of food to go. Pork tamales, pili and carnita quesadillas, and the 4 different pork tacos, and Jamaica drink. Everything was superb. And great price for excellent quality food.- The chimichungas are great and very fulling. Great prices. Authentic Mexican food. I went on a Friday night around 8pm, the place was packed. Small venue. Limited parking
Ferdinand WerhahnNovember 27, 2016Cheap, fast, authentic and most of all delicious food. From the outside it looks a bit dodgy
Lisa Trifiletti AmadorJune 11, 2016Food was great! A wonderful place. Small but cozy atmosphere. Don't let the appearance fool you. We drove away but came back! I am glad we did!😀
HeatherFebruary 21, 2014This is the real deal. Affordable and authentic. Al pastor is the best. Don't be afraid that they call queso "cheese dip" it's still amazing.
D'ArcyJanuary 12, 2014Get the guacamole! Best we've ever had. Super friendly staff and this mom-and-pop style authentic Mexican hole in the wall.
Ashley JohnsonMay 25, 2016The beef & shredded tacos are amazing! This place also has the best rice I've ever tasted!
Beth KirkwoodSeptember 16, 2017Came here for dinner and had the vegetable burrito. Really fresh food and the waitress Yoko was lovely. Highly recommend.
Greg HopkinsOctober 13, 2013Awesome affordable Mexican food. This is definitely a place the locals eat and not a tourist trip (but awesome for tourists!!)
Matt MitchellDecember 15, 2011Orlando's best kept secret. Everything they serve is amazing, and their handmade sauces are the best.
RobertoOctober 21, 2015The owners are from Mexico City, the food they serve is pretty close to what you would expect from a Mexican restaurant. The tacos are a must.
Karen BrownAugust 16, 2019Had the Chicken Fajitas and they pile it high and was the best I’ve had in a while. Didn’t like paying for Tostito chips and salsa though.
Really busy around 12:30, so nowhere to sit. Best Mexican I've ever had! Definitely recommend the Chicago Style Burrito!
Wow! Was totally not what I expected! Definitely a must try if you want good Tex-mex. The tacos were amazing!
Axel EscarcegaJuly 25, 2012Everything here is authentic. Owner has been here 30 yrs, and it shows in the food. Sooo good. Also, try the horchata.
If you are looking for an authentic Mexican joint this is the place! Don't forget the watermelon juice! So refreshing on a hot day~
Caitlin LosureDecember 6, 2014Delicious!! Get the enchiladas verdes with shredded chicken. Uh-mazing. Plus really good salsa.
Michael Anderson JrOctober 15, 2011Don't let suspicious look in the shopping plaza fool you. Great food and even better service with their 2 person team.- One of my favorite places to eat in Orlando! Try Pibil, carnitas, pastor tacos!
Elfren GarciaSeptember 27, 2014We had chimichangas and Carne asada tacos with their homemade hot sause. Delicious.
Graham StrotherJune 12, 2014Amazing guacamole, lengua, and fresh hot sauces. Even the rice is outstanding!
Xue LuoApril 3, 2017The beef tongue is great! Don't ask for rice and beans if you can't take in a lot~
The grill chicken, tongue, and carnita tacos are super yummy. They have horchata drinks. :)
What a predicament to be in... Fresh watermelon water or the best horchata in town, hands down.
Christopher ReynaDecember 27, 2013Amazing tacos in Orlando! Being from Texas this is as close as I found!- Kate33601 .September 22, 2015Best burritos / tacos in the area.... Don't be put off by the appearance
LOVE the grilled chicken soft tacos supreme style! Don't forget the guac (so fresh!)
Andres LopezApril 9, 2012The mall between Carrabbas and the fire station; the store between the Thai place and the cell phone repair place. Just go in already.
They will substitute grilled chicken in the Mexico City tacos! Just ask!
- Try the Torta - Torta de milanesa (breaded steak in buttery grilled bread)
- Zach HallMay 14, 2011California burrito was delicious. It has fries in it! Only two people working there, but super nice.
