This is literally the best Mexican food in this area. The meats are grilled perfectly. The rice and beans are fresh homemade and the service is great!
We had Street tacos, an enchilada and chile rellenos. Best chile rellenos I ever had.
I do wish they would turn part of the restaurant into a bar and I believe then they could compete with the other places nearby.
I took some chips and salsa to go. Both fresh and homemade as well.
Tuesday is $2 taco. Wow!

The corn and housemade flour chips are really good. I like the combination. Really tasty tostada Swiss and fajitas.
The edible bowl that holds guacamole and cheese was a visual and tasty bonus.
It’s a small business with tasty food and a hard-working staff.
Horchata was delicious

I rsrely give 5’s but for this area, I have to give it a 5
Service was very friendly and approachable.
Entrees/appetize/drinks, were very sizable. Great quality, authentic traditional flavors and amazing prices for the value.
We sat at the bar and the ambiance was exactly what we wanted for more of a modern feel but being casual
Overall, this venue is much better than any of the other competing venues on this street that serves booze and food. We will be back weekly and very much highly recommend it!

I thought the food was good. My wife said that the beans and rice needed a little more salt.

food was mediocre, but the kicker was the sign in the bathroom that read “do not throw toilet paper or paper towel in the toilet”
if thats what youre doing with butt napkins…i can only imagine what other practices go on behind closed doors.
(yes, when i threw away my paper towel from washing my hands, there was USED TOILET PAPER in the trash. disgusting)

Haven’t been in awhile. Used to go and was happy with the food and atmosphere. This last visit was a joke. I ordered dinner for my family with some of the order being chicken quesadillas. I waited almost almost 40 minutes for my food. When I checked my food, the quesadillas I got were not even quesadillas. They were open faced shredded chicken on street taco tortilla. No cheese. Nothing. When I asked about it, the guy at the counter kept saying that those are quesadillas. I told him no they are not. Then he leave and another person comes and says that they ran out of the bigger tortilla and cheese. I asked them why didn’t they say anything when i ordered or were making the food. Why would you allow me to almost leave with this type of food if you knew it was wrong. They has no answer and said do you want them. I told them I want what I paid for. So they took the 2 dinners away from me and tried to give me a refund of 20 dollars when each meal was 13.50. The guy gave me all types of attitude and never said sorry. Pissed me off that If I didn’t check my food before I left, I would have gotten home with this crap. Poor excuse for quesadilla and horrible customer service. So I left with half a order for family dinner and had to go else where to get real quesadillas. Needless to say when I finally got home, half the food was cold. Will not be back. Really sad

Their food is delicious and the waiters are so friendly, they are always right there if you need anything, they are very attentive. Would definitely recommend giving them a try. Prices are reasonable and they just built a brand new bar inside. Taco Tuesday special also!!

It is under new management and the place looks great. They added a bar and the whole restaurant looks neat and clean. The tacos and guacamole were delicious. The new manager by the name of Alex went above and beyond to make sure everything was OK. We will defenetly come back and try other dishes.
