The food here was amazing! My new favorite taco spot in the city! Try the Al Pastor, you won’t regret it! I def want to come back for the chilaquiles. The inside is small but very clean and adorable with all of these old pictures. You can also sit outside.

Just as you walk in you can smell the deliciousness of the food you are going to have. The restaurant is very authentic inside and the food is as well. The Elote was super spicy but tasted amazing. And the birria taco was incredible. Super nice staff and service was great. The place feels very homey with all of the family pictures on the walls. Would definitely recommend.

Gas Station Tacos! Located in a strip mall that also houses a gas station. This place is an element of surprise if you’re a foodie.

A new favorite! As a Mexican who’s very picky about authentic Mexican food, it’s a must try! The chilaquilles are my new favorite in the city. The tortilla chips have the salsa on them and stay crunchy. The frijolitos remind me of home ☺️ they’re definitely spicy so keep that in mind. But good spicy the quesabirria is also super good and a really good portion of meat & cheese with the consume. They have 3 different salsas all very good. The burrito is a good size and super tasty as well. The horchata is homemade and one of the best I’ve come across in the city and I’ve tried A TON. The agua de Jamaica was perfect for me. Not too sweet and more on the tart side but that’s how I like it overall a 10/10 honestly and the owners are so nice it felt like I was at family’s house. Can’t wait to come back!

3 tacos and one grilled jalapeño and the price is $17 before tip. There is also a service charge. The food was delicious but this is a place in a gas station. This quantity is not worth this price.

Easily some of the best Mexican food I’ve had. I went for their chicken burrito and it was delicious.

You are out of your mind if you read this and don’t give it a visit. G is the man. This place has some of the best tacos I’ve had in the city or otherwise. Today I tried the al pastor and ribeye tacos. The meat was cooked perfectly. It can be so easy to overcook, but they weren’t. My new favorite taco joint for sure. Thanks G and team!

Have ordered delivery and eaten in. Tacos are delicious and very generous portions. Salsas (especially verde and spicy) were great. Don’t judge it by the location, place is clean and staff is friendly. You can tell they take pride in the quality and want you to enjoy the food. Can always do take out or delivery if that’s your preference.

We love G! From stumbling upon El Tragon during their soft opening, to joining them for their Grand Opening…fast forward to becoming regulars & asking G to cater our late night snack at our wedding (which guests raved about the tacos)! Great authentic food & even better customer service and owner! Don’t let the gas station scare you away, it’s absolutely worth trying!
