We've been here a bunch of times, always getting takeout, but this was our first time eating in. I love how they've decorated it; they've updated the tables and chairs, and the new chairs are really cool and unique. You can tell they put a lot of thought into the decor; it really gives off a vibe of tradition and family. The menu even has a quote from the owner's dad. The service is friendly, and the bathroom is clean. The food was okay; the carnitas were good,...
We had brunch today. I had the menudo for the first time there. It was good. My preference is for the menudo to have lots of hominy and red chile, the tripe to be cut bite size, and NO cow foot. So, while it was different than what I prefer, I think if I order it the way I prefer it, it wouldn't be a problem. It was absolutely fresh and steaming (best way to serve it). My husband had carnitas and they were delicious. The red salsa is π. The service is good.
Barbacoa was very fatty and the menudo didn't have much tripe...looked more like pork belly. The rice was decent. Ordered through grubhub...probably wouldn't again based on this experience.
