Hands down some of the best tacos I've had. Fresh, authentic, made with love from this little corner restaurant. The owner was such a cool dude and made sure our meal was perfect. I heard they won best taco from Rhode Island's food fight so I ordered one of each taco. All were an absolute smash hit. Street corn and tres leches were a great finishing touch to the meal. Highly recommend

I have pretty high standards for Mexican food and this is one of the few places in the area that has met them. We came here because of the RI Food Fights Taco Passport and I am so glad we have discovered this gem of a restaurant! Got one taco of each kind and they were all amazing. The staff was also very attentive. And the beans, oh the beans! We will definitely be back!
