Recent Reviews
Cute little place, food was good and serving size were pretty big, service was great when my family and I visited, I can only guess the bad experiences are based off the day to day situation since it is a mom and pop restaurant, I have no bad experiences whatsoever, only disappointment that's I couldn't have the dragon fruit drink because I was the designated driver, it looked good! Lack of 1 star is because the place felt a little stuffy for my taste but nothing too...

The carnitas here were fantastic! The service was also perfect. They were attentive and genuinely nice. Their aguas frescas were so good too! Big, big personal thank you to Julia for taking great care of us! We’ll be back!
