Great authentic Mexican food!
It's been a while since I've been here, since the last time I was here they have remodeled. Looks great! Now you can see them preparing yummie mexican antojitos (little cravings). I tried the taco de tripa and it was so good. Affordable too! Paid less than 10 for 4 tacos plus a drink. Will be back.
Had dinner here and absolutely loved it. Tacos were delicious. I was pleasantly surprised. Definitely my go to place when visiting. The food is good and affordable. The atmosphere is lacking but the staff is friendly
This place is wonderful. We've tried raspados, tacos, tortas, quesadillas, bionicos, esquites, and aguas frescas. We have NEVER had something that didn't taste good in 2 years of going at least once a week (sometimes more!) The staff is always very friendly, they are never rude. The prices are almost too low for the quality in my opinion. We try to tip them even though we almost always take everything to go because they are so great. So happy we discovered this place!
I really enjoyed the food here! Customer service as well was kind and speedy. I ordered my food and it was done in less than 2 min. I ordered the food berry popsicle and cream corn. Also the strawberries and cream cup. The strawberries were fresh and the granola and coconut on top where super yummy as well. I would say 10/10 experience & food !
Best food Ever! i order a pozole and omg! It was delicious I ate it all my husband o order a huarache and it was so yummy!! We really liked the food here! and we also bought some tamales , they have been the best tamales I’ve tried so far! I highly recommended this place! try the champurrado too it’s bomb!
This place is totally a whole in the wall. But don't let the looks deceive you their tostilocos and frutas are delish. But the shocker was the tacos de tripa and buche. Those were amazing to say the least. They have a salsa bar which was also great. I'd wished I've taken some pictures to share but everything was so yummy I forgot to take some. Me and my family will definitely be back!
My wife and I went on a date here today and loved the beautiful presentation of the Angel and the Diablo. We'll be talking about this place for a long time. The Angel had delicious ice cream and chunks of fresh fruit. The Diablo was a bit more spice than we could ultimately handle. The service was also great. Can't wait to go back.
