Quaint little restaurant by the train station with good food and service! Mahi Mahi tacos were great as was the chimichanga! Every table was taken by the time we left with lively conversation. Haven't been here in years, but won't wait that long again!

We had a wonderful meal here with family. The margaritas and food were fresh, not greasy and refreshing! I highly recommend getting the elote side as an appetizer. It was plently for 4 people to share.

Eaten here plenty of times before, but last night we came (13 of us) walked to the back patio, Luis and staff came out and set us up with our own little retreat. Service was fast, incredible food and we had a wonderful time. Definitely the best authentic Mexican restaurant.

Went here with a friend to catch up over an early dinner. This is just the place for it. The dining room is small and intimate, and they also have a patio for additional seating. The service was very good, and it seems the place is family owned - so I felt good supporting a local business. We had the guacamole appetizer and I ordered the steak quesadilla meal for dinner. If you like Mexican food, this is really a top quality place in terms of food and hospitality. The guacamole plate in particular was quite clearly freshly made and very tasty.

Place is cute, lots of outdoor seating. Ordered an elote and it came out cold. Margaritas are priced well but I do like a margarita with a straw! Service was pretty slow for it not being busy.

Been eyeing this restaurant for the longest. I finally ordered food to go and honestly I’m very disappointed! I did not get the authentic Mexican food taste, I’m sorry but it’s not there! I ordered the steak tacos and the steak was awful. The kind of meat they use is not the skirt steak I’m used to. The meat that was used is the one we used for the “ caldo de Res” meaning beef stew! I also didn’t get any salsa to put on the tacos so there goes another point off. The horchata drink probably the worst drink I’ve ever had, not authentic! It taste like a cinnamon/ peppermint drink. I wouldn’t order that drink. The green enchiladas chicken was bland and the chicken pieces were too big, it’s like they put the chicken in a food processor and pressed the pulse button a couple times. Beans lack some flavor, could have seared some onions to give it some flavor to cover up the can taste. Overall taste and presentation. This place is not for me and it’s safe to say I wont be ordering from here anymore. Not sure why everyone swears by this place?
In addition to great food and seevice, the staff is very friendly. I highly recommend stopping here for a bite to eat.

This was a one and done for me, unfortunately. I ordered a pick 2: a sope and a tostada, both al pastor, both mexican style. I received one sope, american style, unknown meant (too covered in sour cream), and one taco, carne asada, mexican style. I cannot eat sour cream, so that's half my meal gone right there. And it didn't resemble a sope it was more just a doughy flat base. The taco was very bland. My sides were black beans and an unnaturally orange rice that were both somehow salty and tasteless. It was one of the more disappointing places I've tried around here.
Also the pricing is a bit odd. Guacamole is "market price," milanesas are $3.5 extra, and the most mind boggling was that if you wanted elote, not only would you have to substitute both sides for it, you'd also pay an additional $1.5. Ultimately I ended up paying over $20 to be able to eat one bland taco I didn't order, and drink a Jarritos.
