Food was good, rarely wait time to sit, food comes out quick, salsa bar has everything you need. Only thing I’d add is some better tortillas. They get soggy quick and fall apart on the tacos. Other than that this place is good

Me and Friend tried this location for dinner. The entrée's were delicious, I wouldn't recommend the Salsa. The service was ok, and the atmosphere was good.

Decker Blvd. is the best place to find authentic food in my personal experience. This is another fine example of what good food should be in life. Order a 40 oz of Corona familiar and a plate lengua tacos take your time and savor the moment because these tacos are delicious. You can add your toppings and hot sauce if you like by the entrance of the restaurant. I will continue my support for my neighborhood spots like this establishment hard working people making excellent food. Do yourself a favor and give them a try this week !

The tacos are good
The food is awesome!!! Although the wait staff aren't fluent in English;the pictures in the menus are good and you actually get a dish very similar to what your looking at, and you get more than enough. My gripes would be you don't get chips and salsa like everywhere else, but the food comes out in usually less than 5 min, at lunch time no less and it's hot. Like I said you get plenty so chips are not a deal breaker at all. You don't get free refills and if you order water it comes in a bottle so not even that. My #1 complaint and what's kept me from going sometimes is the music, I don't mind at all the sounds of traditional Mexico. The problem is it's usually SO LOUD you can't hear yourself think much less talk to someone seated right across form you, without nearly YELLING. They could take that speaker on top the beer cooler and throw it in the trash and it would be fine. They've got like 5 or more TVs on as well for what good it does you can't hear them and they're not even playing with closed caption on. The food is great 👍 👌 😋, the staff is polite and kind despite the language barrier, their handmade non alcoholic drinks are fabulous and you get a very big cup of it, but it's pricey but worth it. If the music is up, do take out, if it's manageable to you, sit down and enjoy a great hot meal. The "salad/sauce bar is available with anything you order no extra charge.

If you want authentic Hispanic food, this is your place. You won't find the usual Americanized version of familiar fare here.
The service is amazing, but they don't speak perfect English. Even rudimentary Spanish will help you as you order, but it isn't necessary. Their menu isn't bloated with ten thousand options and has pictures of each dish. Your waitress will understand if you talk to them.
You can sit when it isn't too busy (like right now at 2:30pm) and hear them chopping fresh food in the back. They also have a topping and salsa bar with several different selections.
It would not be a surprise if everything is made in-house. It all tastes fresh, not frozen, and heated in a microwave like bigger, more common places. (Looking at you, San José).
The music isn't too loud and is appropriate for their fare. The decoration in the place is appropriate and not covered in dust.
We have eaten at many different places in the past two years, and we can confidently say that this is our favorite!
Parking: No difficulty when we went at lunch time. Peak times could change that.
Wheelchair accessibility: Plenty of room to accommodate a wheelchair.

Californian here with a lot of authentic Mexican taste buds!! This place is top 3 ( for aunthentic mexican food) in Columbia. Great flavors, salsa bar is delicious and offers many varieties ( verde, roja, avocado etc) I've only tried the tacos and they never disappoint. Service is terrible, English is min, and a few times the lady at the front was rude. So it's a trade off.

It is an abuse to me that they charge you a tip without asking for your authorization, they charged me a tip and I gave them a tip out of good will.
