One of the best Mexican Restaurants in SLO County! I go all the time! They are famous for their homemade salsa and warm chips. Their homemade horchata with mango or strawberry flavor is amazing. You must try their shredded beef enchiladas, Pescado Vera Cruz, The Wet Chile Colorado Burrito…lastly save room for the Flan because it’s the BEST I’ve ever had…and I’ve eaten a lot of Flan in my day so that’s saying something It’s creamy, silky smooth with sweet caramel vanilla flavors

Been coming to eat here for the last 18 years. Small, family run restaurant. The food is solid and the owner/operators are genuinely nice people. Never had a bad meal or experience. The salsa is always fresh and always outstanding. Will Repeat!

Cute place and not as busy as I expected for a Friday lunch. I tend to rate based on the salsa. Their salsa was thick and rich with a warm flavor. Chips were warm and fresh. I ordered the papa’s burrito filled with chili relleno peppers, rice, beans, and beef. It was more than I could eat but so good. My husband had the chicken quesadilla with rice and beans. Portion sizes were good and all was less than $40 with a lime sparkling water and diet soda.

Love the food here. It’s our favorite Mexican restaurant in SLO county. (We always visit after walking at the Elfin Forest.) Staff are always friendly and courteous and the prices are good. Very family friendly.

I was in town for work and I went into the restaurant on Cinco de Mayo, looking forward to an amazing meal. This restaurant was suggested by a couple of people that I worked with. While driving to the restaurant, I prepped myself that since it was Cinco de Mayo there would be a long wait to get into the restaurant or to be seated. I was very happy to notice that not many people were in the restaurant and I was able to be seated right away. I immediately ordered a Michelada with Modelo beer. While waiting for the Michelada, I ordered the Albondigas soup and the red chili plate which included rice and beans. When the Michelada came to the table and I took a sip, I noticed that it just wasn’t right. It seemed like all they did was put the beer and Clamato in a glass. There was no garnish no Tajin on the rim. When the soup came out, it was not bad. Just needed some salt. Then the main dish came out with flour tortillas. I was very excited to try this. First of all, let me say, Mexican food is known for freshness and flavor. This meal did not include any of those. The chili in the meat was bland. The rice was bland. The beans were bland. I had to add salsa to everything to give it freshness and flavor. The chips tasted like they were there a while because they were kind of stale, They do not make their own fresh tortillas. The tortillas seem like they were store-bought. I was very disappointed and then as I was leaving, I realized the only Mexicans in the restaurant were the workers and me. Taco Bell would have been a better meal. I hope they step up their game for the future.

Great food. Every time I come to Los Osos I eat here. Tried a lot of different entrees on the menu and have not been disappointed. Great service always started with fresh chips and salsa.

The interior is nice and cozy. The food is good AND inexpensive.
Don’t let the exterior and property diswade you from entering.
You can do take-out as well.
May 8, 2022 we visited again and I had a tropical meal for a change and so glad I did.

Visited the area for a long weekend and had dinner here. Felt like a local place, not touristy, which was nice. Comfortable seating, quiet environment, nice staff, relatively fast service. I’m vegan and was easily able to find options. I had the garden fajitas, super tasty. The guacamole contains sour cream, per the waitress, so they did avocado slices for me instead. It’s possible the refried beans and rice have animal-based ingredients…I didn’t ask! My only complaint was that the side salad was a little lackluster, mostly just iceberg lettuce. But hey, it was a nice addition to my fajitas. Just had a lot of extra iceberg lettuce since it was a large plate of it! My husband had the combo plate with veggie tamale and cheese enchilada and really enjoyed it. Overall, enjoyable dinner option! And surprisingly inexpensive!

Cosy local Mexican restaurant. Generous portions and fun plus-size glassware. I found their “mini” burrito size was perfect for one.

Incredible hole in the wall staple in Los Osos all these years since I went to Cal Poly from 2013-2016 and discovered it. Wife and I moved back recently and went back for this place and the chips/salsa are still killer. Their prices at extremely fair/reasonable and the enchilada plate is still as good as I remember it
