Not sure what happened here? New ownership? Last two times I ordered for take out the food quality was lower. Very dry, hard and dry brown rice. Missed something on the order that my wife made and I heard.

We found this little jewel by coincidence while riding our bikes on the new Pompton Valley Rail Trail. If you’re jogging, biking, or walking the trail and want to finish your adventure with some amazing, traditional Mexican food, this is the place.
Super clean, delicious food, and great people. We’ll definitely be back—I’m officially a customer now!
