This little family-owned Mexican restaurant is an absolute gem and a reminder of how food should be made, full of heart, tradition, and incredible flavor. From the moment you walk in, you feel like family. The food is hands-down some of the best Mexican food I’ve ever had it’s fresh, authentic, and clearly made with love in every bite.

A special shout out to our waitress, Daniela, (the owners daughter!) who made the experience even better. She was incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely cared that we enjoyed our meal. Her recommendations were spot on, and she treated us like longtime regulars instead of first-time guests.

If you’re tired of chain restaurants and want real Mexican food made by real people who take pride in what they do, this is the place. We will absolutely be back—often. Highly, highly recommend!

Great food and good service. Family owned restaurant. Salsa is made fresh. My favorite is the orange. Little bit on the hot side. Good Margaritas. They have a variety of Mexican beers also.

The owners daughter Daniela is the most rudest person I have ever came across!!!!!
If you ever have a complaint on anything you will definitely get an attitude from her!!!!
She has no customer service skills and is plain RUDE!!!!!!

The tamales are always a good choice. No, I take it back, the tamales are ALWAYS an amazing choice. The tacos, nachos, and tostadas are good, but the enchiladas leave a lot to be desired. Still, the service here is excellent and it’s a nice little restaurant overall.

This place is great!!! Food was excellent: tasty, served piping hot, and very reasonably priced. Really cute inside with a beautiful painting on the back wall. The churros were especially delicious. Excellent staff, too!

Curros are good. Came on a Tuesday. Asked the waitress how much the tacos were on taco Tuesday she said a 1.85. We get our bill then we see it was only chicken and beef. She didn’t tell us that the curriso and pork was more expensive. And we waited 30 mins after eating before we had to go up and get our boxes to go. Then another ten she brought out the bill. LA Trinidad in mchnery is better. Worth it to drive a bit farther.

This was a first visit after I googled them and saw they had wonderful reviews and a high score. It did not fail! The food was hot, flavorful and plentiful. I had the steak and shrimp fajitas and they were delicious. My Husband had the steak burrito platter and he said they were fabulous. If I wasn’t so full I would go back for seconds. The food was delicious, it was small but clean, the staff was very friendly and efficient. Cannot wait to return. I want to try the chicken and see if it is as delicious as the steak and shrimp!

For authentic Mexican food this is the only place that is available in this town and next 2 surrounding town or City. The food is very delicious. The owner is from Zacatecas Mexico she is here all the times I come. Ibeen here over 3 times being my coworkers with me because I like to have different input on how the food taste before writing a review. We have had almost half the menu everything was delicious texture color, presentation, everything was there. Most importantly as soon as you take that first bite it is just an explosion of beautiful tasting flavors. What I like coming here they have guava a great drink to have 300% vitamin C so many antioxidants. The place is clean although it does get a little crowded only because it is so delicious. You know you’re eating at an authentic Mexican restaurant when you see old Mexican people here eating if they don’t have to cook at home and they can get the same authentic dish and not have to wash the dishes this is where they are coming. LOL

By far this restaurant always exceeds my expectations from the atmosphere the food and the owners. I had the pleasure to meet Chela, her husband and staff are always polite and eager to assist you. Everything you eat here seems to always be just what you need. If you ever get a chance definitely order an al pastor Sope it’s phenomenal.
