Good to Know
Is this good for a first date? Only if your date appreciates simple, no-frills spots—this is more of a late-night taco fix than a romantic setting.
Can I get a table without a reservation? Yes—walk-up counter only; indoor and outdoor tables turn quickly, even late at night.
Is it kid-friendly? Yes during earlier hours; booths and mild menu options work for families before 9pm, though it’s mainly an adult late-night crowd afterward.
Best For
Better for: Late-night convenience and fast service—open later than most downtown taquerias with easy parking.
Skip if: You’re looking for cocktails or table service; it’s a quick-stop taqueria focused on tacos, not ambiance.
