I ordered the Paquete 2 (Torta, Carne y Taco). My first time trying tortas ahogadas and it tasted AMAZING! I expected the tomato sauce to be a bit spicy, but it tasted great! They have the best seasoned buche and the al pastor was delicious. The portion size was decent and very filling! I loved how they put the meat both inside the torta and on the side. That way, I was able to eat some with my tacos dorados (also amazing). The ingredients seemed fresh and you could tell the tacos, meat, and tortas were recently prepared/fresh. I 10/10 would DEFINITELY order again and hope to visit their restaurant in-person one day!

I've eaten here a few times and I've always loved their burritos, but my Burrito Regular was super dry. I don't know if the filling was overcooked or if it just wasn't fresh, but I couldn't even finish it.
