Great tacos and they are the biggest in Raleigh. Last time I went they were bigger than a burrito I had at a restaurant. You won't regret!

Food was excellent! This place is definitely worth stopping by and grabbing a bite. Great bang for your buck. I had 3 different tacos and my wife had a chicken quesadilla and it was more than enough food for $17!
