Wow! A friend and I went to Amaya's for lunch the other day; what a great find. He told me this place was popular and he was right. We arrived shortly after 11:00 and the parking lot was nearly full.

Though the taco meat could have been drained a bit longer, they were great! The shell was actually homemade, which is nearly unheard of these days; not very crispy, but thick and full of flavor. I have never had a taco shell that good before. And I almost couldn't find the tacos for all the lettuce and tomato. With a generous portion of meat, these two tacos were a great deal.

The atmosphere was casual, and the service was prompt and friendly. Alas, it was a work day so I can't comment on how cold their beer would have been.

Definitely a great place to visit, but if you're going at lunch go early. We finish eating shortly before noon and the line of folks waiting was already out the door.
