Our favorite hole-in-the-wall Mexican joint. Don't let the outside or surrounding area dissuade you from giving this place a shot. They literally have some of the best authentic taco's in town and over a dozen different salsas to try. Get a shot of tequila or margarita from the bar while you're at it! This place is small and fills up fast, so you might have to wait for a table.
