    Though I am not a Mexican but I still want to say very authentic Mexican food I have had till date  for the price you pay it's unbelievable. $6 for a chicken burrito. Chicken was grilled so good and it had so much flavor with the fresh cut mint that was added in the burrito and freshly squeezed lime.
    I tried the beef taco too. Too good !!
    Slow cooked beef with onions, cilantro, lime. I will for sure recommend this food truck to anyone who wants to try good food.
    Cheers !!

    We love this place! The fist time my boyfriend brought me here - on a date early in our relationship, after a concert - I was thinking, "this is not my idea of a dinner date!"  Turned out to be fantastic! I've had the ceviche several times, and boy, is it good!  Six years later , they are still there and so are we!  So good! So fresh! So cheap! And always glad to see they are still in the same spot!

    Better tacos than all the nearby Mexican restaurants. It is not texmex nor is it bland. All the things I've tried have so much flavor. One of the more authentic places I've been able to find in Michigan

    Best tacos I've had in the city. The owner is super nice and works really hard. Prices are amazing as well. Between this place and the smoked chicken at El Ray my search for great Mexican food in Detroit feels complete. I have had most of the tacos, my favorites being the Al Pastor and Carnitas, but every single thing I have had has been excellent. I started going occassionally after shopping for groceries at E&L, but now I feel like I make excuses to go grocery shopping so I can eat tacos from this place every weekend.

    The tacos where delicious!! Both the Asada and the Pastor where amazing. The quesadilla was somewhat greasy but expected with the melted cheese. Would have given 5 stars if they had barbacoa. We will definitely come back!
