This place is perfect. The food is pure comfort, and the folks who run this place are so kind. The chilaquiles I had was delicious!!! Come here before everyone gets wind of this southwest gem
I love trying new Mexican places, especially the whole in the wall... mom and pop places. Everything is homemade. NEVER ever had a salsa that tasted like theirs. I am a hot fan... it may be a little spicy for some. This place has been here for 43 years. Well they are in a new building. They were a few over, but there was a fire and now in a new building. What drew me in was the pictures on how they hook up the tostadas. To my surprise they actually have the goooddd tacos. MmmmmGo...
Absolutely delicious!! They have drink and meal specials that are awesome values, but even without that the food is fairly priced. Chicken fajitas were delicious and they came out sizzling hot and there was plenty of food. We went twice and I had the fish tacos (crispy and yummy but the sauce was too spicy to even dip twice) and then the burrito with shrimp, chicken and steak. Portions were huge, and the sides were good, not just an afterthought. I can't speak to authenticity...
