Absolutely delicious. This family owned restaurant takes pride in their food and it’s evident. We had tacos (tripe, carne asada and tongue), they were flavorful and served a good amount. The atmosphere is great, the place is decorated very Mexican like with music selection to match its theme. The friendliness of the staff will surely have you returning. I plan to come back on a weekly bases.

My chicken tacos were little bit dry , but appreciate added onion and fresh radish. Beautiful food presentation for tacos. My husband burrito was delicious. It was one of the best I ever tried. Service is good. Like the drinks . Clean place . If you have a dog - there is a grooming next door .

Second time going here. We had tacos (birria, carnitas, and chorizo) and they were all great. Carnitas were my favorite. Very authentic & food was ready super quickly. Love the green crema salsa. The guy at the counter couldn’t have been any nicer!

Small, charming, family-owned, authentic Mexican restaurant. We ordered the carne asada and pollo asada taco platters to go. The corn tortillas and hot sauce were delicious. Finally, hot sauce that is actually hot! Owners are very helpful and bilingual.
