I've eaten here so many times over the last 5+years. I kinda get disappointed a little more every time I visit. While I can admit, they have the best salsas and carne asada is so good.... their burritos are skimpy for the price. The burrito comes with green cabbage, and as seen in the pics- I basically ate half a burrito of just cabbage. Luckily, I love cabbage so added the purple onion, some salsa, pepino- soooooo good. Besides that- everything else is great. The tortas, the jugos de cabeza and Birria- I'm telling you.... last thing to add- almost forgot- you'll be lucky to catch them earlier in the morning- or a few days out of the week they're no where go be found. Service is quick and efficient- mostly Spanish speakers working the truck- just how I like it

Delicious! I had the birria consome. I knew what I want but didn't see it on the menu but with the help and patience from them, i got what I want. It was so good that i forgot to take a picture of the cheese filled birria. The consome wasn't salty or greasy like the others.

Service was fast and so friendly. We took our food to go so we didn't sit, but there is a spacious area for eating there. It's just off the corner so don't miss it. Food was good. I wish the burro had beans, but it had good flavor. Not my favorite carne, but it was good.

Dare I say it, does this place have the best burros in Tucson? Maybe. Just maybe. It's so delicious and they are very generous with their portion sizes. We got a Carne Asada Burro and Cabeza Burro. There was a long line and lots of folks behind us said they have been eating these burros exclusively for years. The price is very good as well. It was only $20 cash for two burros. Man, super, super flavorful burros. We were nodding our heads in disbelief, smacking our lips and chef kissing the entire meal. The only part that may be turn off for some folks is that they are greasy. The tortilla was soaked in grease. Otherwise, no complaints.

Yes "rapido" is correct! My order came out quickly which I appreciated because I was on a short lunch break. And the asada torta was excellent and tasty. The bun was so fresh and fluffy. Lettuce, onions, avocado, and carne asada. So good. $8. And the service was pleasant and cheerful. I will be back. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!
