I got the shrimp quesadilla. It was super cheesy, I will add extra shrimp next time.

$10.41 for two grilled shrimp (Camaron) tacos including tax.  The shrimp tacos are moderately large size (single layer of tortilla) and quite tasty (Thin layer of cheese and a slice of avocado). 

Nice bustling and bright environment with staff uniforms in red and white colors, like Five Guys. 

No queue to order and the wait time for the food from the kitchen to the table was less than 5 minutes. Tables and counter fill up quickly but the turnover also fast.  Long queue for the restroom though.

Very clean interior and brightly lit dining setting. 

Two of their tacos may be enough for a meal, and it was merely $20 (including tax and tip!) for four tacos, split between two adults.  The fried fish taco was tasty, and the grilled shrimp taco comes with cheese and avocado in it.  Definitely worth ordering.  With the low price, it doesn’t even count as splurging. 

This place is popular at all hours but the table turnover is fast so there’s always a place to sit.

My favorite was their carne asada fries. Go there before the lunch rush.

Good service and free water.  Moderate queue but the tacos were delicious.  You can see them make the tacos and grill or cook the meat.  Restaurant is relatively clean.  Parking spaces and corners are a bit tight though.
