The food was excellent, was like eating Mexican food back in Cali, no Tex-Mex.
Always good food and highly recommend the Machacado a La Mexicana. One of the few places that uses real carne specs meat.
Great Breakfast Tacos. Went back for dinner but liked the Breakfast Tacos better. Quesabirria was too greasy for my liking. Menudo did not have Pigs feet which I prefer but the flavor was good. Burger was real meat and good flavor.
