Juat good food the kind your latina mom or grandma makes. Breakfast lunch or dinner you cant go wrong. Fajitas is fajitas not onions and bell peppers only. Nice staff. You will leave stuffed. Some plates are enough to share between 2.
The service is great we get the food good and we talk to the waitress about something’s it’s a fun experience and a very good Atmosphere and the food is really good if you try it it’s going to blow your mind it’s sooo good but it my own explanation so give it a try.
Stumbled across this place waiting for my tire change at Discount! If you're looking for top-notch enchiladas, this place is an absolute gem! The enchiladas here are beyond delicious filled with flavorful meat! The sides, like the refried beans and rice, complement the enchiladas perfectly. The staff is friendly and attentive. If you're a fan of enchiladas, or just Mexican food in general, this spot is a must-try!
Everybody here is very nice. I love the night time crew. They are wonderful to talk to If you know Spanish. They are very open-minded, welcoming and friendly. This is a great spot to go and relax after a long day.
I Love This Mexican Restaurant! Food is alwsys Fresh, and Hot, and made just the way you request. Staff is always friendly and at your service for a great restaurant experience and Great Fulfillment Tast. And Price Very Reasonable. Don't forget to tip your waitress, always in a friendly mood. I recommend it. Great kids menue choice too. Their Sugar Cookies to Go, is a great companion with Fresh Cup of Coffee @ Home. Lourdes Angeles Th1/16/20
Still fire as ever! Great food, friendly owner and fast service. The salsas are super spicy just how I like it and everything is always fresh!! I really enjoyed my milanesa! I have been going here since the 90s and it's still very affordable for a family to eat here which is one of the best things! You won't be disappointed if you like real Mexican food here.
I placed an online order and it’s my first time ordering. usually around this area there aren’t a lot of Mexican food places and I was craving enchiladas. I get a little nervous ordering from New Mexican places because it is usually a hit or miss. I placed the order and it did take 10 min. First thoughts when I saw my enchilada plate it looks good. I asked for chicken and the chicken is red has a nice flavor to it. On top of that they added more green sauce for my enchiladas and I’ve actually never had a restaurant serve me more just in case and on top of that be a bigger condiment. Overall it was great and definitely will be ordering from here again!
This is a great local hole in the wall you don’t want to miss. Haven’t been for dinner yet but the breakfast tacos were amazing. Super fresh tortillas and they didn’t skimp on the cheese like some places love to do! The two salsas were fresh and delicious as well, highly recommend mixing them. Awesome service.
