Description
Behind the brick-lined facade, this spot keeps service fast and seating scarce, making it a natural fit for grab-and-go dining. Beyond the standard meat options, the menu caters to non-meat eaters with a vegetarian taco alongside unconventional sides like Hot Cheeto esquite and birria-style dumplings. Keep in mind that while the empanadas are flavorful, they can skew a bit greasy. Portion sizes are generous for the price, and adding cheese to the tacos is a highly recommended upgrade.
