Dam it, I picked another place for lunch which was very popular and a line waiting to get a table. We would wait about 25 minutes while watching how the well oiled staff handled the onslaught that was in full action.
The place is small with a bar area in the front and a small dining room in the back. The place had colorful fresh looking walls with open duct work on the ceiling. The tables and chairs are cheap cafeteria style placed in the room.
I was worried when I opened the menu and nothing it was more than $11 and change. I would have the taco dinner for a whopping $7 which was steak and pork with a Negra Mondelo.
The chips and salsa were complementary and filled at least twice while we were there. The salsa was standard but the green was the hot one with better flavor. The chips were commercial tri color but did do the job.
The tacos were very good I must say for $7. They were my kind, meat, cilantro and onions. The corn tortillas had great flavor and cooked perfect on the flat top grill, just in the middle of soft to hard with flexibility left in them. The steak was flavorful and slightly seasoned. The pastor was melt in your mouth tender, i sampled the meats before I put the salsa on them and ate them. The beans were thick and lumpy with onions in them which I liked. The rice as usual does nothing for me. Not one mystery gristle or fat chunks in the meat so they trim the meat well.
Over all for price vs quality this is a solid joint. The tacos were very good and I can see why people wait in line for the place. We had to wait in line to pay on my way out so line in and line out. For price vs quality vs value there cant possibly be anything better and my only problem was no margarita on the menu to complete the whole experience. I wish this was in my neighborhood because I don't anything even close but I'm glad I we stopped by.
