This was mt favorite meat here. So tender and flavor is spot on. My dad, a taco guy himself, said he thought it was too soft and tender. But for me it was perfect.

These tacos are packed with flavor. They use jackfruit as the vegan meat and my oh my is it flavored well! It is oily though. Love the cabbage that they put to the side. The salsas here balance out the richness of this dish.

This place knows how to make tortas. From the bread, to the contents of it - crema, cabbage, and salsa. Think of tortas like a sandwich. It’s a Mexican sandwich. The Al Pastor vegan meat is packed with so much flavor! Love the sweetness to it as well. Love the addition of beans to the torta. A must get!

Is there any better late summer evening drink than horchata? No, I don’t think there is. This horchata is very flavorful and not too sweet. Love all the spices they use. A must get when you get tacos.

Duuude this Vegan Pozole is on point!! The right amount of spices, super authentic and that jackfruit meat is the best part. Add a lime and you’re good to go!
