The waitress was super sweet. The food was delicious and came out fairly quickly. It's a tiny place. We actually ate there versus ordering out.

Quick service, good food. Decent variety on the menu with a kids' section. Breakfast served all day. Mexican sodas/drinks.

Very fast service and clean. The food was very good. I recommend it for a nice cozy place to eat.
The Carne Guisada was tender and good flavor.

I went during lunch last Monday. This place has been on my list for a while and I finally had a chance to go.
The decor is odd but unique as the staff was cleaning up as it was empty. But welcomed me in and I ordered the menudo and two al pastor and two Barbacoa tacos plus shrimp Quesadilla.
While waiting for the food, I was given chips and salsa but the regular one is meant for folks with little taste buds, just ask the staff they'll give you the spicy one with lots of flavors.
The food was great as it was packed with flavor and seasoning. Definitely can't wait to go again especially around lunch time

The food is so fresh and it came out super fast. It’s full service but they let you order at the counter which is cool if you’re on a limited lunch break.
The salsas are next level. If you’re like me and like to apply liberally, watch out for the red salsa, it’s hot!

We loved it. 4 picky contractors all absolutely cleaned the plates, so good! It was not busy at lunch time but it was a Monday. Fair$!
UPDATE: this place is still delish!

My sister and I went for lunch and it was such a lovely time! Great music, fantastic customer service, and best of all, excellent food. I will definitely be coming back in the future!!

Went here Sunday with my brother to support local. Loved it. They had fresh queso and it was so good. I had flautas and my brother had a stuffed pepper with corn tortillas. Just as FYI. They do use sour cream as a dressing for the salad. It is a little pricey. But I'd support this b4 Mcdonald's.

Great and friendly staff, good food, great prices. My wife like the gorditas and she is really picky about them, so that is a plus. The only thing I didn't like was that they kept changing songs before they ended and couldn't keep the same volume while we were there, not that it matters but it did bother me.
