    The south philly special just transported me places with the unexpected kick from the peppers and the flavors from the meat. This should be on the main menu I say.

    Amazing!! Gets pretty crowded, cash only, but worth the wait! Some of the best Al pastor tacos in the city, and the specials are fun too!

    Tacos are amazing!! However I got the taco salad once and it was waay too spicy for me to eat (dressing had jalapeños in it or something) so FYI don't get that if you can't eat really spicy stuff :)

    Shrimp tacos are amazing! Tried the tostadas for the first time and they were wonderful as well. Made a great appetizer to share with the table.

    The impala are delish and one of the cheapest mixed drinks. Burritos are filling and the recommended taco amount is around 4, plus or minis one depending on how hungry you are.

    Make sure that that you call ahead to make sure they're open or check the website for hours. I went there on a Thursday afternoon and they were closed. I still haven't had a chance to go back.

    Best nachos anywhere. If you're feeling bold, ask for them K&A style and they'll come over waffle fries instead of chips

    Try the Al Pastor (Spanish for Shepherd Style): slow roasted pork topped with onion, pineapple, and cilantro over a corn tortilla for an authentic "street" style taco.

    They switch the dollar taco night each week, but it seems to have garnered a big following as it's been jampacked each time I've gone.

    Very hit or miss on food. Service is also hit or miss. Head south of the city, not north, for good Mexican food.
