The caldo de pollo (Monday's only) and caldo de res (Tuesday and Friday only) here is amazing. Agua fresca flavors are delicious too. If you go there for lunch dine in, it's best to go early or later (not exactly at 12) or get takeout.

At this Mexican spot, the food's just okay,The torta's decent, but won't blow you away,The tacos, alas, are a different story,Their tortillas are big, which dampens the glory.The flavors aren't bad, but nothing stands out,And the service is average, without any clout,But if you're in the area and need a quick bite,This place might suffice, though it's not quite right.The atmosphere's pleasant, with a cozy vibe,But the tacos are a miss, which I can't abide,And though the torta's tasty, it's not worth a trip,Overall, this place doesn't quite hit the hip.So if you're in the mood for Mexican fare,There are better options out there, if you dare,But if you find yourself in this spot by chance,Order the torta, and give the tacos a pass.
