Tortilleria y taqueria ramos offers authentic Mexican cuisine with homestyle cooking and unique dishes. The staff is welcoming, offering samples and providing excellent service. The decor may be outdated, but the food is top-notch. The menu includes traditional options like tacos, carnitas, and Aguas Frescas, as well as homestyle dishes like Chicaronnes en Salas and Frijoles Charro. The portions are generous and the prices are reasonable, making it a great value. The tortillas are fresh and thick, often double wrapped, and the salsa verde is particularly praised. The star dishes include quesadillas de cachete, with tender beef cheek and freshly made tortillas, and al pastor tacos topped with pineapple, onions, and cilantro. Red salsa is hot and both salsas are excellent. The restaurant offers a wide selection of agua fresca flavors, with horchata being especially well-balanced. Chicharron to go is crispy, fried just right, and not overly salted. The place gets busy during lunch, but service remains friendly and efficient, with staff who speak good English. Overall, it is highly recommended for delicious, authentic Mexican food and a welcoming atmosphere.
