Sometimes I rely on my good old GPS to steer me towards the nearest taqueria.
I noticed two things about this place, right away: first of all, it's LOUD. Festive, but LOUD. Like...Tijuana at night during Spring Break LOUD.
Second, the menu is huge. Literally. The server handed me a wire-bound collection of 16"x12" laminated pages displaying full-color photos of damn near everything they offer. I'm pretty sure I read it for at least fifteen minutes before I gave up and ordered my default favorite, fish tacos.
One word: fantastic! Perfectly juicy, grilled fish atop soft corn tortillas with the standard toppings of crunchy cabbage and fresh pico de gallo. Later, I kicked myself for not ordering anything with their mole sauce since those photos looked pretty phenomenal.
I grabbed their "Menu-To-Go" and found they have multiple locations throughout the San Jose area. I'll be back, hunting down mole with the help of my GPS.
