“ I have traveled the world, this here, is the best Mexican food you will ever eat. Tortillas are chewy, similar to CDMX, pastor is perfectly fragrent with cinnamon/clove, tripas are perfectly cleaned and fried, lengua and cabeza are flavored and cooked to perfection, and the sopes have a great ratio with meat to corn. The tacos here are better than the tacos in CDMX, in Mexico they will produce a fast product and it is evident in the taste and quality, the food there, especially the tripas is incomparable to the food here. God bless the owners. ”

“ Hard to find great Mexican food in Orlando. This place reminds me of all the amazing places I grew up on back in AZ. Food was delicious and staff was super friendly. ”
“ Delicious little restaurant. friendly employees. Food was so good. Very affordable. Small parking lot. ”
“ Whenever anyone asks me about real and authentic Mexican food/tacos I just think of this place. This is a hidden hole in the wall place that if you know you know...It's a small mom and pop taqueria with very authentic tacos. Both the carne asada and al pastor meats are well cooked and seasoned and their home made green spicy sauce makes it the best taco place in Orlando! 100% recommend this place, it's worth it! The food and tacos are deliciously made to order, there is a wide variety to choose from. Just to be clear, you're not coming here for the decor, or the service but the food more than makes up for it. ”
“ I have driven past this place for years and finally decided to stop in. I was pleased to find this little gem with delicious tacos and fast service. When you walk in, you're greeted and you place your order with the cashier. I ordered two carne asada tacos with cilantro and onion and two Al pastor. Both came out sizzling hot, and the smell alone made my mouth water. They were perfectly seasoned, juicy and by the time I was done I wanted to order more even though I was delightfully full. I am so glad to come across this restaurant and can't wait to come back to try different items on the menu! ”
“ So this place it's a hole in the wall. You really have to trust your gut and come check it out. The service it's non existent. It's more like a food truck with an establishment. You pick up your own dishes. And you wait for small portion food. Unless it's the specials of the day. Which are serve pretty hefty. Regardless of all this hoops, the taste beats it all. The carne asada it's the best we have tried in all of central Florida. It's marinated and burned to a crisp. Very crunchy and tasty meat! Barely any fat. No nerves. The kids ate it so much we had to keep ordering. 3 dollars a taco. And it's bomb. Carnitas, Al pastor and the Chile relleno are some of the items we have tried there as well. All it's made to order and what a taste. It's very well made. The tortillas come from west central Florida made by hand same week. Nothing frozen. No saggy tortilla and nice dipped sauce to it. Spicy veggie combo. The green salsa is so amazing. As much as the red one. Jmc ”
“ This restaurant is a literal definition of a Hole in the Wall Restaurant. It is located on West Oakridge Avenue between John Young Parkway and Orange Blossom Trail. It is next door to a fire station. I give these landmarks because it would be very easy to miss this place. The process to order is that you walk up to the counter and place an order. They will ask you if it is to go or to stay. If it is to stay, go find a seat and they will bring you the food. I opted to go with two tacos and a gordita. I chose a carne asada taco and a cabeza taco and for my gordita oh, I went with the chorizo as the protein. The tacos came first and I must say that the carne asada Taco was very good. The cabeza, not so much. L I have definitely had better elsewhere. Honestly, I have never had a gordita before. But I was hoping that they would have pupusas here, they did not, and the lady at the counter suggested a gordita, saying that they are very similar. Let me start off by saying, no, they are not even remotely similar. The gordita was good though. Though, I do not know if it warranted the $4.50 price tag. Especially considering that the tacos were under $2.00 a piece. The two sauces were both very good. The green sauce, in particular, had a nice bite to it and I really enjoyed it. Service is relatively friendly and the establishment is clean. If you are over this way and looking for good tacos, this is a good place to check out. I do recommend them. ”
