"I've visited this restaurant four times, hoping each time that it was just having an off day. After reading other reviews, I couldn't believe the food could be that bad, especially with so many positive comments. However, after my fourth visit, I had to give up. Without a doubt, this is the worst Mexican food in town. I understand that Tucson's tastes for Mexican cuisine aren't particularly demanding, but I genuinely don't see how anyone can enjoy this food. On my last visit, I decided to try their breakfast burrito, thinking it might be what earned them the good reviews. I was wrong. It's hard to mess up an egg burrito, but they nearly managed it. The meat was dry, and even their quesabirria taco had the same issue. Slathering sauce on dry meat doesn’t magically make it tender and juicy. After four visits, I couldn’t finish a single taco or burrito. If you don’t mind what goes down your throat and are craving Mexican food, this might be the place for you. The service is minimal since you order at the counter, and while the decor is modern and nice, I wouldn't attempt a fifth visit."

Best menudo rojo in Tucson. The Jalisco style is really good. I could eat it everyday.

Slamming chile relleno burrito, and best carne asada burrito I’ve had in many many weeks, will be back!

This was my first time visiting the restaurant, and I was impressed by how quickly the food was prepared — they got my order correct as well. I enjoyed a refreshing cold glass of Coca-Cola. View menu

The breakfast burritos did not disappoint. The regular size burritos come in a good portion size and the ingredients were well distributed. I can 't really nitpick anything about the burrito. My favorite thing probably has to be that the tortillas taste homemade.

When me and my average Joe entered this restaurant we were just looking for a bite but what we were served was better than either of us average Joes could have imagined. The flavors were delicious and delectable. We were impressed by how well we were treated there and us average Joes will be visiting again.

I visited this restaurant specifically for their quesabirria tacos. It was my first time there, and I chose this spot because my usual go-to place is closed on Mondays. Today is my only day off, and I was craving those tacos. However, I was taken aback when they wanted to charge me separately for the consomé broth. So, I decided to leave. View menu

I had the fish taco and it looked like the person who cooked the fish cut the piece of fish in half and served me a very small portion size fish taco. I also ordered the red chicken mole tacos which I have had before and they were amazing. However, this time the chicken was very dry and the sauce was not very good. I was looking forward to this visit and left disappointed

Strange that this is the second place I have gone to eat and you have to order your food first as you come in. Which feels like you are being rushed. I come from a city where you are seated to make your order and not feel rushed. Plus, you have to get your service utensils yourself, and you ask for a tip before you get your food. The food was okay.If you're visiting Tucson, you will need to look at their online menu and be ready to order as you step in.
