“ TLDR: One word: DELICIOUS. Long version: I was not disappointed one bit. The trompo had a savory delicious taste. And man... The Tripas... OMG . I left happy and wanting to eat more! I will be back. I had 3 Tacos of each Tripas and Trompo. The Tripas were nicely fried to a crunch and the trompo tasted of fire grilled and packed with flavor. The salsas are amazing too. I poured on the red and a mix sometimes of both of them. I am definitely going to come to try more of the menu. Glad I'm working in the area for now! ”
