“I’ve been eating here for a really long time. And here’s what I have to say, the food is very delicious,and the server was very kind and hardworking,she’s been working here for months and always wears a kind welcoming smile, and the atmosphere is nice and very colorful, I recommend getting the Menudo with no grain (but with grain is good too) or some Birria, or burritos. In my opinion the food is very delicious and flavorful, they might be a little bit understaffed when it comes to servers but don’t let it stop you from coming,”

“Great food. We ordered tostadas. They were topped with plenty of crab and shrimp. Next time I want to try the shrimp cocktail.

The restaraunt has plenty of seating indoor and outdoor. The place was fairly busy but the service was fast. The parking is tricky. Not enough places to park and they are small.”

The service was great and food delivered promptly. there's a small outdoor dining area tgat was very nice even though it's in a very commercial/industrial part of town.

“My wife and I checked out this place today while our son was sleeping. Like other reviewers probably mentioned, it is hard to find. Shout out to Google maps. It seems to be a commercial kitchen on the backside / alley of the shopping center. We orded two wraps and a mango lassi. Since we didn't order ahead (recommended) we waited for 10-15 min in the car and went to collect our goods. Wow! What a delightful surprise. The chicken Tikka wrap was delicious / super flavorful. The lassi was also incredible. We haven't eaten our chicken vindaloo wrap yet as we are saving that for dinner, but 1000% will be returning. Don't let the location / entrance throw you off, this place was definitely worth the visit.

Thank you and see you guys soon!”

“Leider war unser Besuch alles andere als angenehm. Wir hatten einen Platz im Schatten reserviert. Kamen an und bekamen erst mal eine Platz direkt in der Sonne zugeteilt. Wir dachten uns, naja, hilft ja nichts. Dann ging das Warten los. Wir saßen 25 Minuten in der prallen Sonne, ohne auch nur beachtet zu werden. Nach uns kommende Gäste wieder bedient, wir hatten weder Schatten noch Getränke. Irgendwann wurde ein Schattenplatz frei. Den schnappten wir uns dann. Und nach insgesamt 35 Minuten konnten wir auch endlich unsere Getränke bestellen (kurzzeitig waren wir schon am Überlegen lieber zum goldenen M zu fahren) Wir bestellten als zeitgleich Getränke und essen. Essen kam dann auch. Nur leider hatten wir kein Bedteck. Also wieder warten. Nach dem wir leicht angsäuert waren, genossen wir aber das leckere Essen. Die restlichen Pizza gaben wir der Bedienung zum einpacken. Wir bezahlten und warteten wieder - auf die eingepackte Pizza. Irgendwann ging mein Mann nach oben zur Theke, wo die Bedienung stand und Besteck abtrocknen. Auf unsere Frage wo denn die Pizza sei, "oh die hab ich ganz vergessen, da drüben steht sie" Naja ist halt alles andre als gut gelaufen an diesem Tag. Aber das Essen war wirklich lecker.”

“This is my go to spot for Agua Fresca de pepino it’s so refreshing. Unfortunately we had a bad experience with the costumer service. We were the only people in line waiting to be attended after 1 man when a few minutes later another couple walked in after us. Although we were there first and the worker saw us, she did not attend us and helped the other couple. Not sure what here reasoning was but she didn’t greet us or assure us we would be helped next so we left. Really disappointed since we usually receive amazing customer service :(”
