Reviews
Service is usually good, but a few times has been slow or inattentive.
Pretty sure the restaurant would close if INS or ICE showed up, but that only makes the food feel more “authentic”.
Atmosphere gets a low mark because whatever sewage smell is emanating from the floor drain wafts through the rest of the restaurant.
I really enjoy the Mexican sweets options they have in the freezer. My waistline doesn’t, but I do 🙂
Parking isn’t awful, but if you have a big truck it’s easier to par at one of the other lots nearby.
Shortly after sitting down I had some chips and salsa served at my table with my drink. I was a little skeptical from my first visit but everything i had was a breath of fresh air, everything was tasty and cooked perfectly. I started out with a Tostada de Ceviche and an Agua de Tamarindo. That tostada tasted really fresh and like a lot of care went into it. Ceviche is a simple dish but very easy to mess up, it definitely all came together perfectly. I didn’t need to add anything other than the wedge of lime that it came with.
Seeing how surprised I was by the tostada. I decided to change course from the original idea to get some tacos. I decided to try their specialty, the Carnitas Plate. It was perfect. I honestly could have shared this with a second person and still have been happy. The carnitas were juicy and flavorful. The beans and rice were a great compliment to that rich flavor from the carnitas. When served it comes with this green salsa that you can add or leave out I say definitely add it to some. It definitely transforms the flavor to a whole new dish. The tortillas were another surprise. They were so soft and fresh. They just melted in your mouth. I really was very grateful for that. Sometimes they get left as an afterthought and can be a real disappointment.
I’d had so much already but I really wanted to taste more dishes. So I took the rest of the Carnitas home and decided to try out the original idea. I ordered the Campechano Taco (on top) and the Pastor Taco (below). Great choices! I don’t think you can really go wrong with anything here.
It took me a long time to come back and give this place a second try. The service was the issue the first time and that issue seems to be resolved now. I’m very excited to come back to try out more items in the future! Especially some of those soups!!
If you haven’t given them a try definitely consider them for your next Mexican food craving. If you were disappointed like I was, then maybe give them a second chance. I definitely think a lot has changed.
