I have been looking for a very specific type of food and I found it here! It brought me back to my childhood…my step mom cooked us so many delicious foods and when I took a bite it almost brought tears to my eyes…it took me back to much simpler days…they are very very kind and attentive as well!
Friendly service and the chips are homemade and soooo delicious the best chips and with a variety of salsas to dip into. The best chips and salsa experience I’ve had at a restaurant while waiting for my food. The queso birria was amazing the perfect crunch and the flavor was definitely there. I highly recommend this place. We stopped here by chance and I’m glad we did or I wouldn’t have discovered this gem! I can’t forget the music it’s a beautiful vibe with musica romantica!
Food was great, I was going to sit in but got take out both times I've gone here. What I did not like is the middle aged lady that cleans the place took the order of 2 men that she saw come in after me when I had been waiting on her and she knew that. But still, the food is good, the place is clean, the tacos are a nice size, rice & beans taste good, and I like that they give you salsa in a sealed plastic bag vs a cup so it doesn't spill in the bag during takeout....
