There were very inappropriate and explicit advertisements and tokens around the store. Overall, would not recommend.

This local, family-owned establishment offers a truly authentic Hispanic dining experience. Many of the traditional dishes are homemade, and the owners and staff are very friendly and welcoming. They speak English fluently and are happy to help you navigate the menu, which is not in English. While this is not the place to go for Mexican-American style food, it is a great option for those looking to try authentic Hispanic cuisine. The restaurant also sells Hispanic groceries and has a pool table and a bar. It can be quite busy on the weekends with Hispanic customers, and it is open late like any other bar until 2 am on the weekends. Don't be intimidated if you are not a native Hispanic person - everyone is very friendly and helpful. Just let them know that you want to experiment and learn about their food and culture, and they will be happy to show you the ropes.

It's authentic, very Mexican dishes at really pretty darn good prices. It's like Mexican comfort food cooked to order and quickly as the dishes are rather simple, easy and quick to cook up. People there speak hardly any English in my experience so far but they are really humble, sweet, kind and seem to genuinely care if you enjoy the food and your overall experience in their humble little restaurant. You can also buy from a decent selection of cheeses from Puerto Rican Queso Blanco to Mexican Queso Blanco and a few other kinds of cheeses I have never heard of before but was really very tempted to buy in spite of my current unfavorable economic situation. They have Mexican sweet treats but to me it's almost heresy or blasphemous that they don't sell the Mexican spicy candy you find so abundant in your lock Walmart all over Arizona. They sell avocados too. Try em out, they're good people who deserve your business.

Wow! This is one of those places that we all hope to run into one day. From the outside you might pass it thinking it’s just a little bodega….. but when you order the food? You will be pleasantly surprised. Great flavor, fresh food, you’ll love it.

Fantastic pork and Menudo.

My tacos where bland and the tortillas used where straight out of the bag. Seasoned meat with homemade flour tortillas are what I would expect for street tacos, of this size and price. I won't be going back.
