Reviews

I ordered the birria and lengua here. Not a big fan of both. They also provided a salsa for you to use on the tacos and I didnt like that either. Bit disappointed tbh as I was really expecting to like place. Also find it a bit weird they don’t allow you to order the tacos per piece. Everything is ordered in instances…
