“I like this stand very much and that's what it is stand. But the business is right behind it making hundreds of tamales. They have a good variety that are well stuffed. Not like some of the street vendors that you don't know which ones are the ones with mostly maza very lil meat. Besides that they're pretty big very moist with salsa included. Red or green depending on your hot tolerance. Hmmm good imma go get me some!!!!“

“Got a scrambled eggs burrito with avocado. Very tasty, even though a couple people working there were surprised it was on the menu. The sign out front said they had champurrado (similar to hot chocolate), but they didn’t actually. The burrito was the perfect vegetarian option, the beans were whole, which indicates no lard was used. I loved watching and smelling the corn tortillas being made in the main seating area, it seams like a popular spot for handmade tortillas. The restaurant and bathroom was very clean And tidy. Overall a positive experience. I recommend speaking in Spanish.“

“This place is a small little authentic place. Only has two people working the place. It was such a great find. We specifically were looking for menudo. They had choice of red and green. Tortillas were hand made. Service is a little slower but it’s worth the wait. The michalada was great and big! There was no kids meals but no problem the tacos were great and my son enjoyed them. We loved that there was plenty of room to sit. Parking is low but plenty of street parking. Will forsure be coming back again.“

Service was quick considering the line. The personnel were very friendly and professional. Only minus? The outside needs a good pressure washing. Keeping a clean exterior would show customers both appreciation and respect.“

I came here out of curiosity and saw their breakfast burrito and it looked good. I ordered the same thing and I was not disappointed. It was as good as it looked and it didn't cost much. For $13 it was a great deal. It has Chorizo, cheese, steak, egg, pico de gallo, onions, and they also have avocado salsa. I will come back and try their other stuff and I recommend this place for someone who loves to eat Mexican foods.“

“Great little place.
I visited on a Sunday, and it was raining but I still don't understand why it was empty.
I sat out under the covered patio. It was quaint and clean. The ambience was pleasant. They even had little heat warmers cooking for warmth. The pool table was unexpected. THEY had a large screen TV. playing a modern movie in English. The food is good. A little bit pricey but everything is these days. I like it. I'll be back and I hope others follow my advice. I believe they're trying and they deserve a little more customer clientele for their efforts. You should check it out. Just a little bit down Van nuys from San Fernando road.Two young ladies, that were very sweet, will be there to greet you. Enjoy ...“

“Best carne asada nachos I’ve ever had. I drive up from San Diego county just to eat these while pregnant (and before). I crave them like nothing else.
I don’t normally like nacho cheese, but for some reason the combination of cheese with the nacho cheese they use is absolute perfection.
I usually order extra jalapeños and extra meat. Worth it to me. But just as tasty without the extras.
I’ve never tried anything else from here, but the nachos will keep me coming back again and again.

The one downside is there is no public restroom.
And note: it’s cash only.“
