I order pupusas, sopes, enchiladas, gorditas and birria tacos. Every single dish was delicious and authentic. The sauces and tortillas are all homemade. Highly recommend this restaurant. The staff was friendly and they seem to be a popular spot in the community. Loved this food! Thanks for a great dinner.

The food is so good here, they got me on Duolingo so I don’t have to place every order online. Super generous with their servings, can’t recommend their tortas

Everything here is fresh and home made right down to the tortillas! Best authentic Mexican I've ever had...hibiscus water to die for! Green chicken enchiladas were delicious. Burritos???!!!! Amazing and HUGE! We ate at the restaurant and had a wonderful lunch and experience! Me and my husband are cooks and we will definitely come back here and order thru doordash!!!

Loved the gorditas and the tortas. I don’t eat pork like that but the chicharrón with yuca was delicious. I recommend it. Will post pics next time I visit. I recommend it

Less than poor . .horrible! I ordered sweets for 50 people to be delivered to a family member of a friend who had passed. It was to be delivered @ 1:30 pm on Thursday . . .the restaurant was contacted on Wednesday late morning - they agreed they could make the delivery. I was contacted by the family after the wake & told never arrived. I called the restaurant 3 times requesting to speak with someone in charge, told someone would get back with me, when I asked to whom I was speaking I was hung up on all 3 times. No one ever called back & they put the charge to my account through. I intend to go thru the bank fraud department to have my money returned!!! The very least they could have done was to call to say they were unable to make the delivery . .but instead took my money & made no contact. If I had not made the family aware to be on the look out for the order, I would never had known it was never delivered!!VERY POOR BUSINESS DEALINGS - VERY POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE!!WOULD NEVER DO BUSINESS WITH THIS RESTARURANT AGAIN !!!!

Me and the posse come here like once a week because it's so good. Enchiladas: delicious Sopes: delicious Tostadas: delicious Burritos: delicious Chips and Guacamole: delicious Huaraches: delicious I'm gonna continue to make my way thru the menu and try everything in subsequent weeks. Always hype for a Vargas run. They got these salsa trays that are crazy tasty but the only trouble is that everything on the menu that I've tried is so good that nothing really needs the salsas. Prices are really solid. $10-15 per person and the portions are hefty. Good value for sure. Also, they got these pastries for a buck a piece so sometimes me and the boys grab a few sweets for the road. . Dope place. Vargas for life!

Local authentic Mexican cuisine, very humble interior dining area. Food is made to order in traditional recipes ( not Tex-mex). Large portions, reasonably priced, good taste.
