Delicious food. A cute little place I’ve driven by a million times and never noticed until a friend took me there for lunch. I’ve already recommended it to others and I’ll definitely be back. Yum!

Great classic Mexican food. Had the Ranchero Burrito with rice and beans. Food was served fast, hot and fresh. Good size burrito. Rice and beans had lots of flavor. The complimentary chips and salsa were awesome.

Will definitely be coming back when I'm in the area 👍

I have ate at most of the tacos in the Peoria area and this place was great! Authentic, hot and so good. Steak tacos were amazing and the El pastor quesadilla was so good. Very reasonable prices. Will definitely be back! Stop in and get some authentic Mexican food in Peoria!

I have been driving by here for a few years and finally stopped in for lunch. The best tacos I have had in a long time. Go for the el pastor tacos they were amazing. Can't wait to stop in again and try a burrito. I have heard they are great too. Super friendly staff as well.

I went on a little mission to find the best authentic taco place in Peoria and this place wins. The tacos are the best !!!!! I eat here every single week. The owner is also a really great guy who has deep ties to the community and really cares about his customers and keeping his restaurant a safe place (for both customers and employees) . I highly recommend this place.

Out of town worker and stumbled along this place on taco Tuesday and very happy I did. Had FABULOUS steak Torta, few tacos, chips and salsa and desert corn in a cup 😁 price was very respectable 👍
The staff was friendly and service was quick. We definitely will be back

My Opinion Is This Is The Best Mexican Joint In This City. Mexican Owned And Mexican Operated. Went in Last Night Bout 30 Minutes B4 Closing and was told we couldnt Dine in and they Told Us We Could Only Order Tacos and Burritos. I Normally Have The Enchiladas With Beans And Rice. Made Me Rethink If It Was It Still The Best The Best Taco Join In Pissoria (Peoria). Taste Wise Not Much Can Top This Place...

Been my favorite place for over 10 years. I am a regular and get the same thing every time. While I do love this place I feel they have lost a step from how the founder did things. They no longer come to your table, you have to wait and order at a window. Also, a few of the recipes have changed and while still very good, lacks the flavor it use to have. Lastly, the price increase has nearly doubled in the past 3 years and the portions are smaller. I have always got the same meal and it was $5.50 for years and while I understand inflation, not I pay $9.00. I give it five stars and love the place even still but many of us regulars miss some of the original authentic flavor and personalized service.

Stopped for a quick lunch with a coworker. How did I not know about this gem? Fast and polite service with food that was underpriced for the portion size! I can see why it is a favorite of the crew at Natural Fiber Welding and I'll be back!

Small but very pleasant atmosphere. The employees are always happy to see you. They have some of the best quality food. Great place for a grab and go lunch or dinner. Never wait more than 5 or so minutes no matter what I order.

Food is always good. Very friendly. Great little place. Tip: Make sure to get the side sauce at your spicy level. Most dishes are not slathered in sauce, so the sides are a must. They will put it on if you ask.
