This place is a hidden gem. The food is deliciously authentic. For those who might not have their mother, or like me, she’s too far away, this place allowed me to taste her caldo de res and instantly bring me back to my childhood table. The place is homey; I enjoyed the laid-back atmosphere that makes you feel right at home. The waiter, Eddie, was extremely engaging and charismatic. I will definitely be back very soon.

Very rude and unprofessional owner Eddy? Eric? Found out that the tostadas are re used if another table doesn’t finish theirs they put them back in the bag, same thing with salsa gets poured back in the same container if table doesn’t finish it. Barbacoa tasted old got stomach sick, Overall worst experience with that rude guy who disrespects his customers and staff, way better places to stop nearby

I got the lunch special, beef tostadas. Everything was good only thing was that at the middle of finishing my tostada I got a really bad taste. I started smelling my tostadas because I was freaked out and it smelled like the rag they they use to clean the tables. My guess is maybe they cleaned the counter they were cutting the vegetables that went on my tostada with that same rag and sometimes those rags over time get a smell of ugly water… I honestly didn’t want to fight with a person that charges for refills and states “NO SHARING FOOD” around the restaurant… I honestly took my L; payed for the food and left. I don’t recommend it at al. I’d like to add that all 3 of my tostadas smelled off, I don’t want anyone getting sick

The Huevos Rancheros here are good, but for some odd reason the prices aren't on the Menu's, ask the price before you order, for $5.50 you get 2 eggs, refried beans and potatoes (the bacon was $1-$2 extra).The eggs were almost perfectly cooked over medium, the salsa for the eggs was okay, the potatoes were made fresh to order they were very crispy yet tasty even without seasoning, the refried beans were okay, the bacon was chopped but it tasted really good.Overall the breakfast here was good, I just didn't like the fact that prices aren't on the menu, this can easily be a trick to overcharge unaware customers.
