Food was good. We waited for a long while for our food. Thought maybe because it was busy, no the gentleman behind the counter was not actually calling orders out he was just tapping the mic. Not to mention when we ordered we had to keep repeating our order because each time he would repeat back the wrong order. Over all the food was good and the service was not.

5/5 BEST TACOS IN TEXAS I've been coming here for about the past decade. The food has not changed at all. If it has, it has only gotten better. Lengua, Pastor, elote, torta, horchata, everything is good! Worth every dollar and everyone loves Jenny!

Very good food, quesabirrias had plenty of flavor. The service was okay, and seating was somewhat widespread with little decoration. The music blasting was awesome; would go again.
