The wet burrito worth the drive

Our wet burritos are legendary around here — big enough that couples split one. Guests drive in from Puyallup just for them.

This place has the best authentic burritos. That’s the only thing I order, a supreme burrito with carne asada. And their avocado green sauce is amazing!!! I always buy a big tub of that since the little packs they give just aren’t enough. I highly recommend this place. My friends and I have been coming to this place for years.

One of my favorite Mexican spots in Tacoma! Prices are super reasonable and everyone is very friendly here. They also have a salsa bar to compliment your food! I always go for their pastor! It’s marinated wel and cooked to perfection. I always leave here feeling bad because I ate way too much but it’s too good to stop!! Also, try their churros or tres leches cake!

Authentic and delicious Mexican food cooked and served by delightful staff. The salsa bar alone is worth the trip. Some of the best salsa and hot sauce I've had. The street tacos are of a good size and the balance between fat and acid with spice was perfect. Each layer came through bold and bright. Will definitely be eating her again, and the prices can not be beaten.
