Overpriced and food is so so. Not the cleanest spot either. Don’t believe they have liquor license anymore either.

My order was take out and I had the chopped steak burrito dinner and flan. Overall, the meal was mediocre. The steak was chopped small, which I liked, but it lacked seasoning and wasn’t tender. I specifically asked for no beans in my burrito, and while that was honored, I expected a bit more effort in the side portions—both the beans and rice sides were only half full.
The flan was disappointing as well. It was served in a styrofoam bowl, which immediately made it feel less authentic, and the taste didn’t redeem it. It was just as mediocre as the main course. Unfortunately, I don’t think I’d order from here again.

Had a gift certificate for $10 off a $30 meal that the restaurant said, in person before we ordered, that they would honor. After we had ordered and were eating, we were told that they had a new manager who would not accept the certificate. We spent 20 minutes on the phone with the manager, who tried to tell us she would not charge us the optional tip. She then led us to believe she'd have a conversation with the waitress about removing a $12 drink, which was the only thing we ordered that was close to $10. When the waitress began washing oranges and avoiding the table, we figured that was just an excuse to get us off the phone. Sure enough, it was. Dishonest brokers, at best.

They should improve their meal of 3 dishes ordered, 2 are bad, the cake is poorly prepared on the menu, it looks different
Processed cheese with meat al pastor is bad too
The rescued huarache, the preparation is good, the meat is also good
Work more on your preparations

The food was alright. Got some tacos de lengue and were slacking on flavor even with the cilantro and onions. The green sauce felt watered and had to drench it to at least taste the sauce. The inside was neat, but the strawberry milkshake was delicious.

I ordered for the first time last week through uber eats, and the food did not disappoint! The chicken soup had a lot of fresh veggies, and the tacos were very delicious as well! I loved the soup so much that I orded 2 more the next day. Highly recommend it! 😊

Their cafe de Olla is awesome. Had their chilaquiles rojos with cecina it was a very generous portion and amazing. Right amount of spiciness and flavor. Definitely stopping by again.

The food was delicious 😋 and the service was wonderful. Nothing fancy but that's okay.
Outright lied to me about what I would be receiving (told me I was getting chips and pico, was instead given a bag of pico and a handful of crackers).
Steak was chewy and the seasoning was crap

We decided to give this place a try on our trip to Chicago, we went on a Saturday for lunch on Labor Day weekend. We found it odd that we were the only customers during lunch time, now we know why. Shrimp cocktails with frozen shrimp, nopalitos from a can, and it gave us the runs. I would personally not recommend or go there again plus I found it pricey for the quality of food .
