Your food is delicious but your prices Do not reflect current prices for example, your menu said 2.50 and I was charged 3.99 a piece fajita 13.00 but current price is 23.00

I've had my share of authentic Mexican tacos but these are by far the best I ever had! Seriously I don't think better tacos exist anywhere in Cincinnati

Words cannot describe how good these tacos are. Absolutely some of the best tacos in Cincinnati. We got the barbacoa and asada. Also, try to use cash if you can, there's a 1 charge for credit cards

The steak tacos with cilantro and onion are simply delicious. The oh-so-familiar family taco night is still affordable, and the service is great. The people that took our orders were polite. Our food was fresh. I'll be visiting this stand twice a week!
