    I liked this place I saw it on a whim by my work and gave it a try, I got the taco dinner and I was pleasantly surprised to see fresh steak hit the grill after I ordered.

    The portion of beans and rice was a little on the light side but the beans had good flavor and the rice was authentic

    The tacos themselves were really good the meat was tender and the tortillas were nicely warmed.

    All in all not omg best place ever but way above average for hall in the wall Mexican food. I would go again.

    I have no clue how long Allende has been here, but I just recently gathered enough courage to try it.

    Courage you ask? Yes, I've always been curious about this place but for some reason was scared of food poisoning or E. Coli scare, I mean a local joint down the street recently got shut down by the health department for it.

    Anyways, so yea, finally I visited and I wasn't disappointed nor did I get E. Coli (for those that were wondering). It's dingy, small and I'm sure scares some people off, but as Tony H says, it's quick, it fills you up and sends you on your merry way.

    I lunched by myself, can I use that word like that? Lunched? Well I am. Like any other Mexican joint I had the chips and salsa which were ok. The chips sit under light to keep warm so please don't come in expecting home made chips. Salsa is limey which added a little kick to the spice. The salsa for the tacos was spicy, just the way I like it. I had two steak tacos and I'm not going to lie, they were pretty tasty. Seasoned well and topped the right way, cilantro and onions only.

    Very pocket friendly for sure. If I ever need a Mexican food fix I'm sure I'll visit this place again since it's right down the street.
