Bad experience overall. The carnitas had no flavor; they tasted like boiled meat, & all the tacos were lukewarm or cold. We ordered some maciza, & it was full of fat. The best part of the meal was the totopos. Make sure to ask for your receipt & check your bill at the end, I still have the impression that we were overcharged.

Tienen un servicio muy lento y poco cortes. La comida esta fria y algunos empleados estaban hablando groserias desagradables. La duena deberia poner un poco mas de atencion en eso.
