Very good food! Lots of traditional dishes to choose from. Amazing quesadillas and tacos!

I've been here enough to have tried most of the menu and they always deliver great quality and flavors. The only things I would change are the tripas, which aren't usually cooked crispy enough, and the nachos, which unfortunately have cheese sauce rather than real cheese melted over them. I've sampled all of the other meats in most of the dishes, and they're fantastic. Great prices for the portion sizes and terrific salsa to compliment. The staff is always super friendly and the restaurant is always clean. I've stopped in and grabbed things to go and only had to wait 5-10 minutes, even though they have a busy house dining in. Sitting down to enjoy the meal there is the way to go. Best carnitas and lengua I've found in Halfmoon Bay.

My daughter dropped her half eaten burrito. One of the staff members noticed and brought her a brand new one. It was so thoughtful and kind. Made our day.

Really good tacos - we had regular & super steak & chicken. Ambience is basic, but food and service was very good.

Awesome little hole in the wall taqueria. We were going to go to the bigger place nextdoor and then I remember a friend of mine told me he preferred this place. I'm a little picky, so I asked the guy at the counter some questions and made a special request. My carnitas nachos were amazing, no skimping on the toppings. Carnitas were not greasy or fatty and the chips were crunchy. My friend ordered the fried chicken. It was crunchy on the outside and juicy on the inside and flavorful. If I wasn't so busy inhaling my nachos, I would have tried to steal a bite of the chicken, but I'll take his word for it. This place has lots of parking. I placed my order to go, but they have indoor or patio seating. This is my new go to spot the next time I am craving nachos and I definitely will return to try the fried chicken. The only reason I'm giving them just 4 stars is this was the only time I've been there and I like to save the 5th star for consistently. I look forward to updating to 5 stars soon.

Great selection, food plentiful and delicious and more importantly great friendly staff (Marco). Came for the delicious fresh crispy fried chicken. Available in a bucket w 9 pieces. Free green grilled chili available but very SPICY! Looking forward to coming back and try other meals on menu.

This place had the most tender shredded chicken that I've ever had. I'm used to shredded chicken in burritos or quesadillas that are too dry, too stringy, or too saucy, but this place had chicken with the perfect texture and seasoning, comparable and even better than some other fine dining places. I definitely was not expecting that when I first ordered the super chicken quesadilla for $14, so it was a very pleasant surprise. Chicken is definitely this place's expertise, and they also have fried chicken on the menu which is uncommon among taquerias. For $8.5, you can get a combo plate with 2 pieces of fried chicken, a sandwich roll, and some sides. This sounds like a good deal that I'd have to come back and try out. As for the environment, the restaurant was more on the casual side. It was pretty small and lack good heating, so it was kind of cold sitting near the back. The tables were also slightly dirty and we had to clean it ourselves.

Hands down, one of the best burritos I've had on the coast side. For years, I've gone to the spot next door, but it wasn't until I saw a couple reviews about this place did it peak my interest. Found myself near by and decided to give it a try. Reviews I read were talking about their fried chicken so I had to give this a shot. I got a 4pc meal and it came with a side salad, asked for rice instead of fries, and a mini roll. The salad was whatever but the fried chicken was greasy in all the right ways. Dipped in that extra spicy salsa, it was super good. Crunchy goodness at a great value. If you are looking for flavorful and affordable fried chicken, this spot got it. As I was eating the chicken, I knew I had to order a burrito and I'm glad I did. For $13, it was a hefty burrito and tasty. I can't really explained it but it tasted authentic, no frills, just how I like it. I wish the carne was cut a little thicker, but it was still super good. It's prime example of don't judge a book by its cover. Delicious, affordable food can be found here and worth a try if you find yourself in Half Moon Bay.
