The real deal! Food was delicious! Made from scratch gorditas and flour tortillas, made right in front of you.
My no sabo kids were skeptical because somehow they think that they come from money or something, but that’s another story but once they sat down and ate the food they were like wow this is the best barbacoa . No greasy not dry .
There are no real tortillas in the valley like in this place!
