All tacos are $3, and there are quite a few options plus a special of the day. I got the tilapia taco, which was "yellow curry blackened" and served with chipotle mayo, pickled napa cabbage, and 'herb mix' (i.e. mostly cilantro). It was super good. It had two large pieces of fish on it and they were juicy and flavorful. The mayo added a kick of heat, and the cabbage was good, although it didn't taste all that pickled to me. I picked off the herbs, of course.
Tim got the skirt steak, which was red curry marinated and served the same way as my carnitas, with avocado crema, onion, and herbs. Neither of us were super impressed looking at it, but he LOVED it. He said it had wonderful flavor, both the steak and the crema. His other was the special of the day--it was a shredded, marinated beef with onion and herbs. He liked that one also, although not as much as the steak. I didn't try that one.

Overall, we really enjoyed our experience and already have several others picked out to try next time!
