Posted on Sahib MrokeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Giant portions, incredibly messy but so tasty. The trees leche cake had a strawberry filling in the middle which was weird but the horchata and birria were delicious!Posted on Tanya DrumhellerTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Mmmm yummy. Authentic Mexican food. Hard to find since leaving Arizona. Definitely recommend!Posted on Cassandra MitzelfeldTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I will go nowhere else for tacos in the entire Pasco county area! When I moved away from Tampa, I thought I would never have good authentic Mexican food again, this hidden gem surprised me. You can tell it's made by a family that cooks with love.Posted on Lorie A ThomasTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I got the chicken bowl and it was a good portion, hot, and freshly made after I ordered. They were very nice and it didn't take long. I also bought their last two churros of the night which were vanilla and strawberry and both of them were absolutely delicious. The only reason I gave them four stars is because the refried beans were on the "wet" side. Not for me personally. All in all, it was a really good experience. I will definitely return for more churros!!!Posted on DanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Good and authentic. Just wish the prices weren't so high....
