I live in the neighborhood. A few years ago we ate there and I chipped a tooth on something I was served. The manager was unconcerned. We haven't been back since.

I hope they come back. The food was great and they had better menu options than most restaurant's in town - including vegetarian options. I miss this restaurant a lot.

It was amazing. Amazing tacos. Amazing horchata. Amazing elote. Our waitress was super nice. Let me practice my Spanish. I am new to the town and looked up this place based on the reviews and let me tell you it is worth 10 stars. Would highly recommend to ANYONE visiting town. Worth the trip.

Just passing through Kalamazoo, we were looking for a Mexican place with decent vegetarian options. I was so impressed by their vegan offerings! The vegan sopes and vegan tostada were fantastic! My husband ordered the Carne Asada and thought it was really good, authentic, and delicious. We also split a queso dip that was everything you'd want it to be. If we find ourselves out that way again, we will likelu make a point to return!Vegetarian options: A whole section on their menu is dedicated to vegan options, and the vegan items I ordered were delicious.Dietary restrictions: A whole section on their menu is dedicated to vegan options, and the vegan items I ordered were delicious.

Pitstopped at this one on the way back to Chicago from Detroit. It's definitely a hole in the wall and bit of a drive off the highway, but worth it. I grabbed a variety of street style tacos. Choice of various meats topped with onion and cilantro on two corn tortillas. Served with red and green salsa in a plastic container ready to be poured on for every bite. My only complaint would be that my horchata tasted a bit over sweet with some undertone of another fruit as if the serving machine had been previously used for some other agua fresca. Small star deducted, but overall I thought the food was great!Will definitely think of this spot the next time I'm travelling between Chicago & Detroit and could use some leg stretches and tacos.'Til next time, cheers!

I've ate here twice had the steak tacos Mexican style. Mmmm mmm!!! Then I had the chicken enchilada with beans and rice. It wasn't a traditional enchilada I've had in time past. It was pretty much a corn taco folded like a taco with salsa and cheese drizzled; but this didn't take away from the great taste and presentation. Both experiences were great. Pleasant waitress friendly environment. I'll be back ?
This is truly the most authentic Mexican restaurant I’ve found in Kalamazoo. Every bite is SEASONED and delicious. Order anything from their Birria menu and you will not be disappointed. The couple who owns and runs the place are excellent hosts and very kind.

The service was incredibly slow. We waited almost an hour for our food. We watched so many take out orders being processed. On top of that, an employee was hauling out cooler packs of food most of the time. Customers were kept waiting while all of this went on. The food was definitely not worth the wait. Tick this place off our list.

My husband and I shared the appetizer platter and birria quesadilla (picture only shows half of quesadilla). So delicious! And so much food!! The birria was tender and super flavorful. Everything was hot and fresh. Salsa was spicyyyy but delish. The guac was so good. All in all a great meal for this pregnant gal and we'll be back for their taco special on Mondays!

I was referred to Quekas Authentic Mexican Food on E Cork St, Kalamazoo, MI, by Julio, a seasoned Mexican correcaminos who would drive miles for their tacos de birria. Mexico was indeed in Carmen's hospitality and food. Natalya, my wife, went for the Aztec soup and I for a bowl of pozole left over from a big wedding order and, of course, the tacos de birria. We were not disappointed and it was well priced.
