    Delicious!

    My friends and I were in Corpus for a couple days and stumbled upon this little family-run taqueria. We've been to more Mexican restaurants than we can count, and this definitely ranks near the top of our list. Cheap prices, fresh food, friendly staff, and huge portions. If you're ever in town, you definitely need to stop by!

    Been coming here for awhile and the food is always good they really pile on the food for the price. I love coming here the staff is very friendly and they get out the food fast. The place is clean they really make sure it is clean. So I highly recommend coming here

    This place has the most delicious Mexican food, better than anything of the restaurants in Austin hands down. I ordered the #10 (they have over 40 different plate options) the Two enchiladas, crispy taco, rice and beans plate. Yummy! I'll definitely be coming back and recommending to anyone passing through North Corpus Christi.

    Dry flavorless tortillas wrapped around what tasted like mashed potatoes and powdered eggs. It also supposedly contained chorizo, which I could neither see or taste.

    Lingua was tough and insipid. Carnitas was passable, but you could get better almost anywhere else.

    Make a stop here when drop by crp. I like this place ALOT , the food is great , they make their juices fresh (fruit is cut right in front of u - limeade, cantelope, rice water, and pineapple), and the tacos are cheap and tasty. My second time here & ill always try to make a stop here when I can. Im here on friday & they have a legit talented mariachi duo playing. I really feel like im in mexico lol love it! The staff is nice too & professional
