Great people, delicious food, and free chips! This was our first time here and the gentleman behind the register was very welcoming and offered to give us samples of the aguas frescas before we decided on our drinks. The melon is delicious, btw. I got the 3 taco combo, and it was fresh and tasty, and the open salsa bar with free chips was a huge plus! The restaurant was also very neat and clean. Will definitely come back!

Tried this spot based on other reviews & we were not disappointed. This is a clean little spot where you can grab something small or a combo plate. Unlimited chips & salsa bar was free & very fresh. Our food was served quickly by friendly staff & it was very good. Highly recommend the chile verde & the chicken taquitos 👍🏼.We also saw the staff accommodate a vegetarian family with their selections.An important bonus was the clean restroom. Nice little spot with good food & reasonable prices!

Ive been eating here 1-2 times a week since they opened. Its easily my new favorite restaurant in Santa Clarita.The food is excellent and fairly priced, the dining area and bathroom are very clean, friendly service, and its never much of a wait to get your food. The self serve salsa bar is fantastic. Loading up on fresh chips and grilled vegetables/jalapenos is one of my favorite things about the place.I highly recommend their chicken super tacos and quesabirria tacos. Their chicken is some of the best Ive ever had, no joke.Dont sleep on this place.

The tacos are delicious, and shrimp ceviche was not bad. I love the sidebar with salsas, chips, and veggies. The cashier was very nice and he explained some dishes to us. This is not a sit-down restaurant experience. This is more serve yourself type.

Ordered the super burrito with fries on the side and it tasted great, a lot of flavor with the fries that were fresh. also had a chip and salsa bar where it’s d.i.y I’d definitely come here again.

Met my friend there for lunch and it was great. First time there and it didnt disappoint. I loved the food and the portions were spot on. I like how they have a small salsa bar and free chips that you can put in a little paper tray. I hate when places gouge you for that. We will be back!

We were passing thru and the restaurant that we were supposed to go was right next door 30 to 45 min. Wait they told us, so we decided to go next door so we would not waste to much of are time since we were just passing thru. Ordered the Menudo it was super soft and funky smell, just thought it was just probably that it was not washed that good and proceeded to add lots of extra condiments, and ate it, has been 5 day since we went my stomach has a pain that has been less every day and constipated and then diarrhea with chills for two hours and now constipated again going to doctor see what they can give me to feel well again. I do not recommend this place be aware, read reviews, and I always do but like I said it was not are first choice.

Very casual, quick pace dining experience. Usually show up for lunch, always met with a friendly face and great service. This is on par with the food as well, which serves just a little bit more than you can typically find in SCV.This definitely satisfies my cravings, and will look forward to coming here much much more!

Great customer service. The food was delicious and the salsa bar had great options. This place had a good size menu, something for everybody . It was my first time trying and I got the chicken taquitos combo. I will defiantly be back to try more items.

Hidden in the corner, this place is the real deal if you’re looking authentic Mexican dish. The aroma and flavor of the meat on the tacos and quesabirria are so good that you can’t help but order again, definitely will return when we are in Valencia 👍🏼👍🏼

EDIT: I gave this place another try and decided to visit in person. Im not sure if it was the great service or the atmosphere but the food was great. I am a repeat customer now and regularly have lunch here. The shrimp cocktail and cabeza tacos are great. Their Jamaica water is also great. Ive grown to love this place.Ill start off with the good. The Burrito was a definitely a good size, and the salsa really compliments the food. The food was piping hot when I got it and everything tasted fresh. The proportions of meat, beans, and rice were good, but I wish they were more evenly distributed. The first half of my burrito was all beans and rice, the second was all meat.I got the Asada as an option and unfortunately, it had no flavor. The asada had both the taste and texture of unseasoned boiled meat. The description listed salsa but there was none I can detect in the burrito. That was an easy fix.That being said, my wife liked the carnitas and nothing tasted off or rancid, so I will be giving this place another try.

Great service, first time going to this place. Went for lunch and we order a few items from menu to try, we got tacos, buritos and tortas, overall food was not good, it was okay. I didnt like the carne asada it was dry, blend and it taste a bit old, the al pastor taste a little better with the all the toppings and salsa, it was okay. I personally will not be going back. its a shame because this place is down the street from my office

After trying almost every Mexican place in the city, I can confidently say this is the best Mexican food in Santa Clarita. The flavors are sensational and the variety is plentiful. Whether you’re craving tacos, burritos, tortas, or more, you will find your cravings satisfied here. Not only is the food incredibly but so is the service. The gentleman in the front is attentive and charismatic. Highly recommend!!

Took one bite and immediately knew this place was something special. The tacos were filled with protein and a smooth, creamy guac. The staff was very friendly and welcomed us to the open salsa bar that was stocked with delicious sauces and condiments. Highly recommended.

Got a wet chicken burrito and asada torta. On my way out, the server reminded me about the salsa bar where they have chips and pickled vegetables. All the food was good. They use quality meat.
