The restaurant has two locations in the Charleston area; the one shown here is on Rivers Avenue in North Charleston.

A few tables are available inside the tiny restaurant, but weather permitting, you'll want to sit outside!
More than a dozen taco varieties fill the menu; most are in the $1.50 to $2.00 range. For under $10, you can fill a basket — and then fill your tummy.
