Omg the food was absolutely perfect. The tripas were The salsa was perfect. Flavor and heat. The salsa Verde was delicious too. My girlfriend had the tacos and she loved them so much it reminded her of her dad that passed away. She even cried. The waitress was so sweet. I absolutely love this place and we will most definitely be back on our next vacation. Thank you for some amazing Mexican food away from home

Ok guys I keep it simple I had me a breakfast taco with refried beans and eggs with hash browns and noplalas. If you see my other visits this is one of my fave. Along with a large menudo. Soo good.. my momma had chorizo con frijoles and beans ala Mexicana. We had unsweetened tea which is good as well. There tortillas are homemade and light and fluffy good service and our order was prompt. Let me know what you had of you visit. God bless y'all..

This spot is good, and they bring your food out fast. Homemade corn and flour tortillas is a plus. I got the #1 carne asada plate and it was too much food for one person. But I like my asada a lil more burnt but it' was still good. And the beans are good af too. I recommend atleast try it once.

After being turned away from another restaurant because they were an hour away from closing, this place welcomed us with open arms and an hour before closing. The service was prompted, correct, and the food was good. They even told us to relax and take all the time we needed. We still got out by their closing time and didn't hold them up. I highly recommend this place.

The food is really good. Usually busy to steady. Staff is pretty much on point with the exception. Bathroom small, but clean. Hand sanitizer as you go and sit down. The parking lot is a bit of a pain.

This restaurant deserves a Michelin star. It is consistent in every aspect. Delicious food, service is the fastest and always good, and it is probably the best Mexican food restaurant in the county. The tortillas are a thing of carb glory - worth every bite. If you don’t come here, you’re missing out.
