      Great deal on terms of cost for amount of food.

      Plus they give unlimited chips and salsa. Go for the green sauce if you like really spicy.

      I normally get the beef or chicken enchiladas and I always have leftover for another meal.
      It's a bit on the heavier oily side so wouldn't say it's the healthiest option.

      Nicer service, lots of free parking, able to accommodate midsize groups of 6 people at their longer tables. Open late!

      I actually enjoy this restaurant for lunch! Great lunch special! During lunch, you get soda (huge cup), charro bean soup or chicken tortilla soup, and whatever entree you pick. All for under $10! I never finish the plate either because there is so much food. I always get the enchiladas and have to say it's pretty good. Always moist and flavorful. Ask for the green sauce! It's spicy and gives the enchilada a good kick plus more creamy too. The only flaw I really can complain about is that the salsa for the chips is really liquidity. Therefore, when I dip the chips it spills and barely get any salsa.

      Oh my gosh.... DELICIOUS!! This seems to be the late night place for my friends and me. You can't go wrong here! Great service, open late, conveniently located, clean restaurant, comfortable seating and terrific food! Not all taquerias are created equal. I think some of these type establishments get a bad name. People sometimes think they will be lacking on service or quality of food, but not here. Everything is top notch and it is such a deal for the prices they charge. Every time I go, my order is so fresh, the cheese is bubbling on the plate when it arrives to the table. The chips and salsa are delicious too. Very impressed! I will be back and most ;likely with the same group.

      Best local spot. Cheap and the women take care of you. When ever I'm in town this is my spot. Ask for Wendy.

      Their breakfast tacos here are always bussin, will always be worth the trip plus, the horchata is always on point. Service is always good and quick! (I've never had any issues but i do just go through the drive thru)

      Nasty food. Everyone who says that is good, clearly never ate real Mexican food. The food tasted horrible. The chicken tasted old and the silverware and cups have bad nasty smell! Dont recommend this place. Food tastes old. A mexican restaurant NEVER has all the caldos available. Now that's real FISHY.

      Neighborhood drive thru taco place. We get breakfast tacos and dinner tacos from here. Love the burrito with fries. The menudo is also good. We visit the place at least once a week.

      Barbacoa and lengua are my favorite way to taco so when I come across a restaurant that serves a mean barbacoa/lengua taco, i add that restaurant to my hit list.

      Taqueria Cancun currently stands in first place for their barbacoa and lengua. The tacos are 2 dollars, and you can see they ain't shy with the portions.

      The agua de jamaica and horchata are top tier. The margaritas are around 3$ (trust me it'll hit ya). If you like delicious food, large portions for a great price OR if you like to support small local businesses then this is a restaurant for you.
