    My wife and I stop here every chance we get. The birria tacos are her favorite and in her opinion, the best between Wilmington and Raleigh. Everything on the menu is delicious! I highly recommend this place. It checks off all the boxes, including friendly service, fair portions, and authentic quality.

    My husband and I love eating here whenever driving through! Amazing hospitality from everyone and the food is absolutely delicious. My husband loves the quesa birria tacos and I love the burrito. The strawberry mojito is also super good!

    I came here after the blueberry festival. I’ve been in the mood for tacos for a while. I took the tacos home and even after they were room temperature they were still good. Cachete and lengua is probably one of the hardest meats to make. If you’re in the mood for tacos you get plenty of meat and the price is reasonable. Another plus the salsas were spicy. So if you’re looking for tacos and spicy salsa this is your place.

    Delicious food, and great service. We loved the fresh salsa and nachos. Our food arrived quickly, everything was great, and our servers were very helpful. There were not only Vegetarian alternatives to dishes, but they also added veggies, and it was awesome! Thank you!

    This place looks pretty unassuming if you pass it by. We stopped in on our way home from Wilmington to have lunch, we miss the good Mexican food from AZ/Cali.. well this absolutely hit the spot. The staff were super friendly and helpful! We got tacos al pastor, enchiladas, chicken empanadas.. all of it was delicious. Their store has everything you need, too.
