    Fish tacos are always delish! Pork tacos are even betterrrr. Weekends are busy so be prepared to line up a little to order.

    Mucho bueno! Can't go wrong with anything on the menu, but the beef burrito and taco were a highlight. And the service was ridiculously fast. Outstanding!

    The kangaroo burrito with quinoa is a great choice. Charred corn is a winner too. Nice beer selection too.

    Seemingly the busiest of the fonda's. Fish taco and pork quesadilla is a good combo.

    Not your typical Mexican. If you think it is, you will be disappointed. Everything was fresh and quality, but just not to my expectation. Seating is cramped and strange.

    The burritos are over priced. I paid $15 for a beef burrito that had minced beef, not shredded pieces which is what I was led to expect.
