This place is mind blowingly amazing! Had the 4 taco combo with mixed carnitas. My asian palate was more than happy to see generous portions of stomach etc. mixed in on request and the end result was the most authentic tacos I've enjoyed in Canada. 10/10. Their sauces were amazing as well but my advice is to go light on the salsa so that you can enjoy the flavors of the meat.
It’s the best place to eat and experience the authentic taste of Mexican carnitas. As a Mexican, I can truly recommend trying the tacos or tortas with costilla, aldilla, and cuerito. You won’t regret it. That it’s only half “torta”
I think is one if the best places in vancouver to order carnitas, we ordered 500 gr of mixed carnitas and it came with a good amoumt of corn tortillas, green salsa, lime and pico de gallo, everything was pretty tasty, is not my first time ordering here, the flavour and service is great and pretty solid.
