What customers say?

“ I just want to really appreciate the Señora that took my order today. She was so kind and welcoming the minute i walked in the door. I had my son and daughter with me. She realized quickly it would be a lot to carry out the door with the baby so she offered to bring it out to the car for me. She was so sweet and even offered to do this for me whenever i needed to place an order again. I wish i would’ve got her name. Also beyond this the food was AMAZING even my picky eater ate up all the rice and beans plus his quesadillas. Thank you ”

“ This is probably one of the better mexican restaurants in the area. The owner and his staff are very welcoming, and they treat you with respect. They are the prior owners of Muñiz Tacos. The food is the same as delicious and everything has good flavor. The steak torts, the tripa taco, rajas de chile gordita were some of the things I ordered as well as horchata, which is made in-house, unlike some other make it from powder bags. They have plenty of tables to eat in and parking. I would say, definitely give them a try, and you won't be disappointed. ”
