Delicious Steak and Carnita Fajitas. So flavorful! Free pinwheels for a snack.

Both the atmosphere and service were great. I especially enjoyed the shrimp tacos. They were very flavorful and SEASONED. My partner said her green empanadas were good as well. The only thing I wish they had were traditional chips and salsa, but I will be back if I’m in Durham!

We ordered the Carne con salsa Roja and Enchiladas Rojas and let me just everything was delicious and tastes like a grandma’s cooking. Although I wish the enchiladas came with sour cream. They give chicharrones con salsa which is a plus. I highly recommend the agua frescas. We got piña con mango and it didn’t disappoint. Definitely will back to try out the pozole!

Literally the best shrimp tacos in town. Service is impeccable, atmosphere is hard to beat! In the center of 9th street, I come here at least once a week for the enchiladas. Can’t recommend more highly.

What a fun spot!!! Rolled in there at 9:00 pm & they were happy to serve us. We were craving burritos after a hospital visit. The guy in charge was so attentive, kind, and even made suggestions for our next meal there! The burritos were HUGE and DELICIOUS!!! Quality ingredients; not a lot of grease. SO tasty!!!
