A lots of authentic Mexican foods on the menu. Acqua de Coco and Fried Snappers are the best combo. Value for money. Highly recommended.

Good food. Good service. Only saw the walk-in part not the actual sit down part but that was an ok spot.

We have seen it before but never stopped in to eat, and today that we did, this was great food and great service. The molcajete sauce was a delicious combo to the meal. The quesa birria consome is quite tasty. You can elect your caldo de marisco with or without veggies which was an interesting option. Not pictured are chicken nuggets/strips for kids, homemade! Glad we finally gave this restaurant a try.

Love the old school diner vibe with a quality menu and great pictures on the menu. Tough competition with la Rosita accross the street but if you’re looking to sit down and chill this is a great spot. Beware the spice levels my normal looking fajitas had some crazy fire rain down on me!

Casual, delicious, authentic Latin American cuisine, plus some local favorites. Try the homemade horchata! Tambien se habla espanol. The team was very helpful in answering my questions about ingredients. I had a chicken quesadilla on flor tortilla, but they have homemade corn tortillas or strett tacos if you're looking for a more authentic flavor.
