They’re in the old Bud Jones location on East Irwin, and they have several parking spaces out front and more in the back. Now, their front lot is almost always full, but that’s because it’s a terrific place to pick up food. (Don’t worry, it’s a quick in-and-out, and it’s absolutely worth the hassle.) I always get my gorditas to go, but they do have a small, very clean dining area with about five or six tables inside.
They just do Gorditas (except on the weekend when they do Menudo or posole), but they do have several kinds of drinks available that are really tasty! If you’ve never had a gordita, this is the place to try one! They build them here like a pita pocket only it’s made of MASA that’s a bit thicker than a corn tortilla. (I always get corn.) Some places fry their Gorditas in oil but they grill them here, which lends the Gordita an extraordinary crispness that I am absolutely crazy about.
Each kind of gordita has a unique set, a flavors, spices, and textures. My favorite would probably be the guisado rojo with mozzarella. It almost has a chili like flavor in the spices and it’s very nicely seasoned! A very close second is the shredded Chicken Tinga, which I order combined with seasoned, grilled rajas (peppers). Fill them with anything! They’ll be delicious.
My other favorites include the Revoltillo (with the colors of the Mexican flag: eggs, beans, cheese and green sauce), the dessibrada, the potatoes and chorizo, and napalitos (cactus strips) with potatoes or cheese. I order all of mine on corn (Maiz). ¡Siempre maiz! Oh, and be sure to get extra sauce (thank me later).
I will say I’ve never had a bad gordita here. Also at least one of the owners (Maria and Luis) is almost always there—usually in the kitchen. I think you’re gonna like ‘em!
Anyway, we finally went and we ordered pickup to go. We Absolutely LOVE it. We got the corn and flour. We prefer the corn. I got the spicy red, spicy green, husband got the spicy chicharon and a bean and cheese on corn. SOOOO GOOD!
Employees were Super helpful & Nice. We don’t mind the price because we miss home and this food is comfort food. Will and have already went back. It’s definitely a must try!
