First, I love that this place is quiet enough to have a conversation on a Friday night without shouting. The decor is also pretty chill.Second, the service was fast.Third, I love tamales, but they can sometimes be rather dry. I was pleasantly surprised by how juicy(for lack of a better word) my tamal was. The rice and salsa verde were also quite tasty.

Chaotic. Waitress could not get the order correct or the billing and payment procedures done efficiently and effectively.

I think I know what happened here today, but that is still no excuse for such a poor experience. Today was a holiday and surprisingly, the streets in general were empty. When we showed up, we were the only ones inside, another couple showed up before we left. In order to tell my story, I need to share a previous experience. There is a spot near me that has amazing Carnitas. One day I came in and they were no longer on the menu, when I asked why. The owner told me Carnitas have to be fresh, when they are not it's clear, so he always made less to ensure there were no left over. That said, it meant by the end of the day, someone would want Carnitas, but they were sold out, so he decided to pull it from the menu completely. I ordered the carnitas here and they were not fresh. They were clearly reheated and it's an item you can't reheat. They were tough, dry and overcooked into of tender, juicy and cooked perfectly. The beans and rice also were not fresh as they were dry and flavorless. My favorite was the half full basket of chips and when we asked for a salsa refill, it was $2. Who charges for salsa? Had everything been fresh and tasty, it would have been forgiven, but this was a huge disappointment. I had to stop eating and wasn't going to take my food home, but I figured it was worthy of the dog dish. I'm pretty sure I've been here before, but it was a different place then. My recommendation to anyone reading is Tonala up the street or Casa Moreno south of the mall, both have better food, but both also charge a premium, but if you don't pay extra for salsa or a chip refill, it's probably worth it.

Absolutely trash service. Waited half an hour for a single burrito that the tried to make me pay twice for, glad I had a receipt. They weren’t busy at all. Ridiculous.
