Huge comes to mind. The tacos here come with an approximate 15cm. diameter double tortilla. Not a size you'd expect to find like in any other taco shop. The servings are bountiful and they offer a wide variety of options: asada, adobada, chicken, chorizo, suadero, and buche at a reasonable price. The staff was very friendly. Definitely recommend and will be coming back.

The food was really good, but since tacos now cost 40 pesos, I hardly eat out anymore.

Very good tacos, ever since the price of tacos has gone up to 40 pesos, I hardly eat out anymore, so I don't try new places, but I tried this place because it was recommended and it's worth it.
