"One stop shop, market in the front & fresh food in the back. Food is the bomb!!! Al Pastor, Carne Asada, and the Pollo are very delicious. I always go for the Burrito but their tacos are on point as well. Prices are affordable and the customer service is very welcoming to all."

"Friendly service and I love the food 😋. Although sometimes they still put onions 🌰 on my food even though I always ask for none, they are always happy to change it 😀 and fix it right away. Other than that, I truly love this place and the food ❤️, that’s for sure. Highly recommend"

"This place is a gem in the heart of st John's. My boys favorite Hispanic restaurant, he's grown and in college now but when he comes home he always hits up santa cruz first thing. The food is as authentic as it gets and very fresh! Our family gives 5 stars. Thanks for serving St John's so well over the years now!"

"A hidden restaurant in the back of the store, this place has been my go to for years. Take me back to Guadalajara to see mi familia! The staff are great, friendly and always helpful. I loved it when no one really knew of this place, I was able to get my meals quickly and we would get in and out fast! Now it's busier and I don't mind waiting, I've told EVERYONE about this place, the wait can sometimes be awhile if you get there during the lunch rush. Their carne asada dinner plate is fire....the tacos al pastor are incredible. The veggie burrito is amazing, although when the avocado season hits, they are the best things to get! The tacos dorrados are amazing as a well. I have yet to have anything I didn't like. The breakfast burritos can feed two, I wished they had chilaquiles....maybe they will see this and add them!? We will see!"

"Do not go to this Tienda if you want table clothes, frosty margaritas, and over priced guacamole. If you are looking for authentic Mexican food, bienvenidos, this is the spot!!!🇲🇽❤️"
