Relaxed taqueria for traditional Mexican fare, including burritos, tacos, tortas, soups & salads.
From Google Maps reviews.
We visited this taqueria mainly because we wanted to try the pollo verde tamales, but unfortunately they were sold out when we got there. That was a little disappointing since it was the main reason for our visit. Even so, the tamales we did try were good, and the staff was very nice and helpful throughout our visit. They were friendly, answered our questions, and made us feel welcome.
Food was okay. It was quiet for the time went. It was odd the waitress sat us so close to the bar and the solo patron when the place was empty - would have liked more room for our party of 5. Food was okay. Most of us had burritos. I had shrimp for my protein and I forgot that's what I had because I barely tasted it. $95 for 4 burritos, 1 taco set, 1 specialty drink.
So happy I stumbled upon this quaint and inviting restaurant after my appointment in Caroll Gardens. Gabriela was so sweet, attentive, and knowledgeable about the menu. The decor is festive and vibrant like many Mexican restaurants but there’s a more mellow, cool toned factor to it as shown in the photos. I had a spicy margarita, a rajas tamale and a chicken tinga tostada that was a decent portion and also very delicious. Can’t wait to stop by again!
