“ These tacos are cheap as hell and absolutely delicious. I love that you can add your own toppings and the spicy salsa made me SWEAT in a good way. 10/10 considering it’s a cart outside of a gas station. ”
“ Great place for authentic Mexican fruit snacks , the strawberry milkshake was delicious with real fresh cut fruit. ”
“ The taco stall is located at the front of the grocery store and has a casual vibe, perfect for a quick and delicious meal. I ordered a variety of tacos including asada, al pastor, carnitas and pollo. The standout for me was definitely the carnitas taco. The tacos were made fresh to order and the meats were tender and well-seasoned. You can add your own toppings from the compliments table, they were fresh and complemented the tacos perfectly. The corn tortillas were also freshly grilled and added a nice texture to the tacos. The service at the taco stall was quick and efficient, and the prices were reasonable. The portion size was generous, and I appreciated the value for my money. I would recommend this place for a quick bite, for anyone who loves authentic Mexican food. It's a hidden gem that's definitely worth a visit for anyone in the mood for authentic tacos. I will definitely be back for more! ”
“ Fairly traditional corn tortilla tacos w a topping bar. Pretty similar to las Palmas in Oakland. Descent portions, simpler meat seasoning, standard toppings of cilantro onions salsas etc. It all fit the bill and we both enjoyed it. Vibe and atmosphere is super…quarter effort, minimal but works. Like a tarp over some tables, plastic chairs, etc. In general, it feels like an abandoned gas station — and it looks like an abandoned gas station. I kinda like it lol This place is a solid traditional. Not sure I would drive from pgh for this, but if you are in the area - come, enjoy yourself, and as long as the vibe doesn’t throw you off - it’s good ”
“ The people running the place were nice, and helpful. We got tacos from the cart outside; pollo, carne, and pastor. We all thought the Al Pastor was the best of those 3. The tacos are very comparable to the street tacos I get in Los Angeles. They taste very good. They also have a toppings cart with pretty much anything that you'd ever want to put on a taco, and that was also incredible. We took our tacos to go, but they have several tables that are covered if you want to eat there. The grocery store was well stark, didn't buy anything this time, but we'll go back to purchase some meat for grilling. ”
