Very authentic with an amazingly wide variety protein and beverage options. If it fly's, swims or grazes you can select it for your soup, taco, burrito, quesadilla, gordita, flauta, tostada or enchilada. Right up to octopus. The alcoholic, coffee and soft drink menu is also endless.

The price is higher than the setting, location and service deserve but the food is great. Recommended

I was craving ceviche when I stumbled upon this spot, and we decided to give it a try. We ordered the California Burrito and the Mixed Ceviche. The interior was warm and inviting—stepping inside felt like being transported to a small, local eatery in Mexico.

The menu is impressively extensive, with a wide range of classic Mexican dishes. We were welcomed with complimentary chips and salsa, which was delicious. My husband really enjoyed his California Burrito. The ceviche, on the other hand, was decent, but not particularly memorable.

Prices were a bit on the higher side compared to similar places, but overall, it was a pleasant dining experience with a cozy atmosphere.

If you are looking for authentic Mexican food this is your place! They took quite away to prepare our order but for good reason. It came out so fresh, you can tell the tortilla is home made.

I thought this place was authentic Mexican food. I thought wrong. I wanted to phone i my to-go order but when i called they kept me on hold forever so i decided to walk in. I should have taken the hint when they left me hanging..but nooo. Even when i walked in they still made me wait and it wasn't even crowded. We'll the young lady that finally attended me must've been in a bad mood. No greeting or smile. I should've walked right out but nooo i still placed my order of two orders of taquitos, one with rice and beans and the other a la carte. Also asked for an horchata. A different guy brought out my order and i left. On my way home i realized thy didnt give me the drink but was close to home so i said id deal with that later. We opened our taquitos and could see right away that they were the frozen kind a d tasted like the frozen kind. Sheesh! How hard is it to fry up some fresh taquitos? I threw mine away and i guess my mom was so hungry she ate them but they were gross! Never going back. If you go, dont order taquitos. Youll regret it. Thats pure laziness. Shame on you Ricardo!!!

Mexican food as authentic as it gets!

I was there Monday, with a friend, Cinco de Mayo, waitress made use wait to order, my friend got up asked if we could order,the place wasn't full, I ordered a small menudo, she gave a large, I asked if that was a small she said yes, I was charged for a large, not going back
