This taqueria just opened up a cantina restaurant. The food is amazing and the prices are fantastic. I highly recommend the chicken enchiladas and chiles rellenos.

The food was delicious and plentiful. The price could not be beat. I sent a friend who was organizing a last minute party for 40 and Roberto catered that on a few days notice. She was also delighted with the... more
