I’ve never heard of their specialty but after seeing the pictures, I had to try their papantecas. Be warned — they’re spicy, and that’s coming from someone who always asks for the hottest Mexican salsas at taquerias.The tortillas covered in the spicy sauce resemble the ones used in enchiladas rojas but the spices are hotter. I ordered it with deshebrada and it comes dressed with crema and queso.After you take your first bite, you’ll feel the heat in your mouth but it lingers in your throat. It helped to have some of their lemonade on standby!My boyfriend had the flautas, and they were everything you want in a flauta. The tortillas were crispy on the outside but the tender meat was moist inside. When you bit into it, it kept its integrity instead of breaking into pieces like other flautas. The toppings towered over, but it really helped ensure you’d get a little bit of the cheese, crema, lettuce, tomatoes and avocados in each bite.While we were there we watched Jumanji in Spanish on the TV and really enjoyed the experience. We look forward to coming back soon and hopefully push my heat tolerance a little further along. ?

I've been coming here for the Paletas and Tortas for af least 5 years. The paletas never disappoint but the tortas are our this world. Arguably the best tortas in the Valley!

Probably the best tortas in the area. I found them on the way from work over 5 years ago and haven't stopped visiting! There's other food as well that's just as good, but it's the tortas that keep us returning! A good torta and a cucumber lemonade make a great combination!

My first visit here, I was definitely expecting more with all the wonderful reviews. But was not impressed at all. No flavoring or seasoning to meat. Not tender, had alot of gristle. Would not go back. Too pricey for the torta being served.

6-9-23I got recommended this place by a friend, so had to try it out. He swears by it, he said there big and taste good too. Well I believe he was right. They are huge and they taste great. I like the fact that they toast the bread. Very crispy on the edges the bread itself is soft goes real well with the meat. I got the Texan with bistec and it was great. It's so big I couldn't finish it. I only eat half, I did have 2 paletas. One of mango with Chile and another of cookies and cream. Both we very good. We be there again for sure.

The lady that was taking the order was so rude and she made it very obvious that she did not want to be there. Worst customer service ever! I will not be returning due to this issue. It's great to have delicious food, but unfortunate to have poor service which makes people not want to return. I will take my family of 7 to a more welcoming restaurant.

Tortas Vegetarianas are real good and their fresas con crema are made with a thick type of whip, real delicious ?
