Food comes out fast and hot. Fajita burrito was delicious. Wait staff was very friendly and service was top notch. Will definitely make this my go-to Mexican food spot when in Wilmington

These will always be the best tacos in Wilmington and I just moved back from Colorado and went here first. The best to eat in, your tacos get served and use the toppings bar to add whatever you want. This is a dream for someone who has the cilantro gene since they separate the onions and cilantro. Service is always quick, no fuss and the Tripa tacos will always be my choice. They aren’t chewy at all, they are fried to keep them crunchy and delicious. I will be a regular again and I’m so so excited about it. Thank you for the best taco experience ALWAYS
