Lil mom and pop mexican restaurant. Great salsa bar! Excellent table service and food is authentic and delicious. Not overly condimented. Will definitely go back and try more menu items. Was in for breakfast menu?.

I recently ordered catering for a brunch we had at home. We ordered for 20 people and got so much food. Everything was delicious. The chilaquiles were amazing! The service was excellent and we got our food on time. Definitely recommend it! 100/10 for sure!
