Love this place. Authentic Mexican food. They speak English and Spanish. It's a small place but it's food is amazing!
It is an average Mexican restaurant but has the ability to be great.The staff is not welcoming, its very obvious they'd rather be anywhere else but there. But if they fostered a customer service experience they have potential to be amazing. Im sticking with to go orders because I don't like feeling like I'm bothering them. But as for the food, my goodness. It was soo good. I wish I were more hungry so I can order more. The carne guisada was tender. The cheese was plentiful. The tortilla was AMAZING. Homemade for sure. The puffy taco was a real puffy taco, better than any I've ever had. The food is what will bring me back for sure.
I know it’s all about who prefers what but this place is damn good! Just try it lol
Went there for the first time last Saturday, had tacos; Potato and Egg, Bean and cheese. Tacos were delicious, the tortillas made me think my Abuelita was in the back making them. I went back again today and got the Huevos a la Mexicana plate; Eggs were delicious, Beans were good, Potatoes were not cooked all the way (but were good) and of course the main reason you go, The tortillas were slap yo mama good. I'd go again just for those tortillas. I saw the cook, she's an older lady with red hair, I almost proposed to her, but I remembered I'm already married, but imagine having those tortillas made for you every day... At least try the tortillas.
Hot fresh Mexican food at a great price. Hot homemade flour and corn tortillas.
