If you’re craving authentic Mexican comfort food made with heart, Francisco’s Mexican Deli delivers.

The menudo is where the magic starts. The broth isn’t just flavorful — it’s explosive. Deep, rich, and layered with perfectly balanced spices, every spoonful hits with warmth and complexity. It has that slow-simmered depth you only get from someone who truly respects tradition. The hominy is tender, the tripe is perfectly cooked, and the aroma alone lets you know you’re about to experience something special.

Let’s talk quesabirrias — they are simply perfection. Crispy on the outside, juicy and savory on the inside, with that beautifully melted cheese pulling apart in every bite. Dip them into the consommé and it’s game over. The flavor is bold and balanced. It’s the kind of food that makes you pause mid-bite just to appreciate it.

Oh and the tortillas — always handmade. They’re soft yet sturdy, warm, and slightly toasty.

Francisco’s Mexican Deli isn’t just serving food; they’re serving tradition, care, and explosive flavor in every bite. A true gem for anyone who appreciates authentic Mexican food.

It has been about a year since my last visit, the owners are still the same but the food was a disaster this visit. The prices arre incredibly expensive. Paid $40 for 5 tacos and 2 mulas “cheese and meat” on homeade flour tortillas. The meat was dry for the tacos birria and my wife had 2 tacos of lengua the meat was all nerves. Unbelievable. The owner needs to visit more often and set things straight. It’s hard to find a good place to eat now a days. It’s a fortune and their giving you trash.. see pictures

Menudo was very tasty. The cheese and chili tamale was good as well. I also had a taste of rice and beans with their freshly made corn tortillas. The corn tortillas were the absolute best tasting that I’ve had in a long time. Try them!

Worst burrito I’ve ever ordered the carne asada looks like it’s boiled and they shoved a whole bunch of rice in there and they didn’t even cook the tortillas raw. I won’t be going there again. Maybe they only know how to make soup

If you are looking for real delicious Mexican Food, look not further! This place is one of the best. I love their Menudo con pata and my husband loves their tacos de birria with consomé. One little thing though, prepare yourself to wait because there is demand. Also, parking is not available most of the time on Sunday mornings. What we do is order over the phone and just pick it up. I’m giving 5 stars to the food but 3 to the way they deliver the service.

Today was the second time they forgot about my ‘pata’ in my menudo. I understand things may get busy at times; however, even the manager agreed that this morning has not been busy at all. I ordered my menudo con extra pata and they didn’t add any pata. You literally just shattered my reality of a happy meal and it was not cheap! I understand life happens and I understand I have options too. May this allow you to provide more attention to detail trainings because your customers deserve to enjoy their meals.
