  There's a reason cars line up every day around noon.  I had the tacos asada.  Holy yum!  These 5 little street tacos were perfection and the green sauce they came with is liquid gold.  By the time I finished them I was already planning a return trip.
  
  My husband got the beef burrito and really really enjoyed it.  They don't use cheap ground beef, it's shredded/chopped awesomeness.
  
  Both of these items were ordered, made and handed to us through the window in less than 3 minutes.  How can this much deliciousness be delivered so quickly?  Are they magicians?  Clearly, the answer is yes!
  
  I've read they have breakfast burritos with chorizo and bacon.  That is now on my bucket list.
  
  Go, go, go to this deserving-of-every-five-star-review taqueria!

  Great size portions, amazing spicy green sauce (ask for it)! Quesadilla was bigger than my head with tons of oozy cheese - NOM!
  
  Good prices! Migas, tacos, burrito (think 3 in 1) ...
  
  They are next to the best coffee stand, so it's all good!
  
  Major noms!

  So good!  Got the enchiladas today.  Not very saucy,  but so good.
  And the rice & beans are great too.

  This place is my go to for Mexican food. The guy and girl are pretty friendly and the prices are very reasonable, especially for the quality of food.

  who drives past a food truck off Bot Ev and 196th to go eat at another food truck further up North East Rte 9 ??
  
  THIS GUY
  
  so the double drive thru's made pulling in and parking a little confusing
  but its a gas station parking lot so DEAL with it
  the kids parked under the tent were a little annoying with the F bombs but hey that's not their fault, its poor parenting
  
  anyway turns out this place is also owned by Omar & Christina who own the Taqueria Pollo Asado @ 2121 196th St SW in Lynnwood WA so right after i ordered my burrito asada i told the cook about my past experiences up & along the North end
  
  He was highly receptive & told me to give him additional feedback after he delivers
  
  anyway the asada burrito could have been bigger & fuller of meat (no one can compete with Reggie in Lynnwood, i guess) but what this lost in filling was made up by pickled baby carrots (everyone else serves slices), radish & jalapenos on the side
  i hate carrots but i'm definitely going to ask for extra next time
  
  the green sauce was hot but watery and the red sauce wasn't as hot as it could be, yet those vary by the day so rather unfair to grade this place on its sauce
  
  will i go back ? Yes but its the quality of the ingredients and friendly service
  o yeah they take cards but expect a 50c charge for swiping
