The flavor was just impeccable all of their ingredients were fresh. Their crispy tacos did not disappoint. The super nachos were definitely the best. The customer service was very kind. For anyone coming through this little town trying to find a nice affordable meal this is definitely the place. It was so good I would drive 100 miles just to get a taco. This is definitely the best place around.

Incredible find!! Takes me back to my traveling days down in Peru and Guatemala. Fantastic food, friendly service and great prices! We came for dinner one night and returned for lunch the next day. The first night we had Pastor tacos, the fajitas and a grilled chicken and cheese quesadilla. We had it to go and enjoyed it all in our hotel room. It was so good we returned the next day for breakfast/lunch. My husband had the huevos rancheros with chorizo and I had 3 more pastor tacos. So delicious!!

So glad we tried this place! Regular burritos were only $8.25 and large with very generous meat portions. Their chips were also fantastic. Definitely recommend!

We had the fajitas and they were amazing! The tortillas were clearly homemade. They were the perfect way to eat all the amazing vegetables and meat that were in the fajitas. The homemade chips were also fantastic. If you're in the area, stop here for a delicious and authentic Mexican meal.

We decided to try somewhere new in Willits and I chose here. I am so happy we decided to come here. The store is a sit down restaurant but the walls have Mexican grocery store items that you can buy. The lady that helped us was really nice as we ordered our order to-go. I went with 2 crispy pastor tacos, lingua street taco, and an elote. Upon getting our order, I asked for extra hot sauce stating I would like the hottest one they had. I LOVE hot and spicy food and sauces. She tells me they have a very spicy chili oil but it's extra. You better believe I paid for the super spicy chili oil. The oil was amazing. The chilis were blended down into a thick paste in the oil. She told me to be careful since it can irritate your skin. I started with one of their tortilla chips and dip a little corner in to try it. The flavor had a smokiness to it. It is similar to thai chili oil. It was spicy but it was manageable. I proceeded to cover my crispy tacos in globs of it. Well, the heat builds hahaha my lips were puffy from eating so much and my mouth was on fire a little but I didn't feel like I was dying. Some water helped clear it up. If you like spicy, this oil is definitely something to try. Be careful if you don't normally eat very spicy. The crispy pastor tacos were pretty good. The pastor was seasoned a little different than what I have ever had when ordering pastor but still good flavor it was just a little on the salty side. I probably will change meat type next time. The tacos came with lettuce, cheese, cilantro, and a little pico. I asked for no sour cream. The tortillas have great flavor and were super crispy. There was a lot of extra lettuce, which I appreciate. My tripa street taco came with radish and a grilled jalapeños tucked inside the tinfoil which was a nice surprise since I thought it was just the taco. The tripa was fried nicely and was crispy. The flavor was simple but good. This taco wasn't salt which I liked. I covered this in chili oil as well lol. I also got an elote that I didn't take a picture of. I think by the time I ate it the heat had caused it to sweat a little so the toppings were dripping off a little. The flavor was good. Not too much not too little tajin so it was good for me. The elote was ok. I probably shouldn't have eaten in hot. Don't know if I would order it again. I love this place. It was a pleasant surprise for sure. I will absolutely be stopping here again on long trips out of town. My boyfriend loved his food. He stated it was some of the best chili verde he has had and will be telling his coworkers to make a pitstop here on their way out. Chili oil 5/5 Food 4/5

Looking for authentic Mexican food? From the limes, onions, and loads of cilantro, all the way to abuela standing in the kitchen making the best tacos I've had in ages was exactly what I wanted. Just a quick hop off of 101 from the south Willits exit. I'll be stopping again on my drive back south. Pastor was the best!!!
