Great enchiladas,
Great good! Nice small place with tons of space for dining.
Ordered the 3 item combination (chili relleno, steak burrito, and cheese enchilada) and the Chilaquiles with 2 scrambled eggs. The chilaquiles were good (red sauce had good flavor) and the red sauce on the enchilada was also great. The enchilada was good, could have used a little more cheese, but was tasty. The chili relleno was the best item on the combination platter and the steak burrito wasn't that good (recommend getting a different item). Plates had great presentation. Service...read full review
