“ Over a decade a most unique Taco Truck with a dining room. Yes about a month ago they open Dining Room after Covid. You order at Taco Truck and take a seat inside then they deliver to your table. If waiting in your car they wave at you. A very large clean dining room with clean restrooms always filled with mostly Mexican Families enjoying the food from the homeland of Jalisco Mexico. Both parking lot and dining room packed when we visited around lunch hour. They opened another location in the Cass Corridor 5 year's ago inside a market and another Taco Truck in New Boston Mi area. Famous for the Full Size Double Stuffed Tacos at half price of restaurants around town. All come with Radishes, Lime, Grilled Onions n Salsa. I got 3 marvelous Al Pastor Tacos WOW fantastic.
