Stay away from the carne asada burrito. Not sure about the other items but I had probably 10 gnarly unchewable pieces in half of the burrito. Couldn’t finish. Don’t order asada burrito plz

Excuse me, but the stuffed chile tacos are bad, they don't cook them well, the chiles are raw when we are eating them, they crackle and they are very poor in cheese, so we have to pay attention to that...

The tacos were so good and nice portions but the mangonada and Pina coloda I got were icey water basically it felt like I came just for the mangonada and the sea food was mid no seasoning

went in here at about 9pm in hopes of finding a cake for my sister after dinner and wow!! they had tres leches which was absolutely amazing my sister loved it!! it reminded her a lot of birthdays from when she was younger and we’d always have tres leches. the staff was so kind here they put a candle on the cake and the whole restaurant sang happy birthday!! i got an horchata as well and it was very very delicious. i think this is a great spot right off the sheridan red line. though i didn’t eat here, i will most definitely be returning to try all sorts of things after how kind the staff was.

Kinda disappointed. I’ve had the aguchiles here before and they were good. However, this Sunday I had langostinos, they were over cooked and it was either that or the ceviche de Camaron, that gave me the runs.
It wasn’t even really ceviche, more like a cocktail de camaron. Tomato-y. And the empanada was worse. Like that exact ceviche with Tomatoe sauce was put in the empanada. No cheese. No sauce.

Will be sticking to the usual Costa, islas, and playa najarin. :/
I really wish I hadn’t spend 80$ on this order.

Was in the area looking for a quick Mexican meal and stumbled upon this place. The inside is nothing fancy, featuring checkered tiled floors, some small wood tables, TVs playing soccer games and cumbia music playing in the background - it’s fitting for the environment. The menu has a lot of options but I had my mind set on a steak burrito. I was not ready for just how big this thing is. It was loaded with tons of steak, beans and veggies. It was a great deal for the portion, and a pretty decent burrito. I got a tamarind aguas frescas it too and it was refreshing. Another plus was the free chips and salsa, you don’t see that often anymore. Salsa was good, red one had a bit of heat. I’d come back for an affordable quick mexican meal for sure.

I went to eat on June 29th, with my husband and son. We entered and no one greed us, we sat in the back by the windows. After me, 2 party of 4 people come in and the waitress were so much nicer to them. They brought them chips, salsa and water before us. Me and my son order steak & Al postor tacos. My husband order pa Ella. We order piña colada, horachata, and a corona. After they brought our food no one ever come to see if we needed anything else, I did notice that the other 2 parties of people were getting serve and the 2-3 waitresses were very nice to them. I had to get up and get my own napkins. I had to ask 2 times the waitress for my check. The first time, she just ignored me. And if things couldn’t got any worse. Me and my special needs son got food poisoning. My son threw up 3X’s and I have stomach problems since yesterday. I called and talked to the manager, he apologized and asked how he can make it up to me. I have no plans of ever going back.
