The tacos are prepared with handmade tortillas and they are likely the best tasting I’ve ever had. You have to try them

OMG. I use to spend my summers in a little Pueblo in Jalisco, and I walked in and had and instant overwhelming nostalgia. The ambiance, I appreciate… it’s authentic.The food, absolutely delicious, authentic and I am VERY picky about my Mexican restaurants… because I can cook it at home just as good. But HOT DAMN! Someone’s Abuelita is cooking up a storm in the back! My tastebuds were in heaven and it brought me back to my childhood.Food is special, and has the capability of creating and bringing back beautiful memories.That’s what this place did for me.Just a little hole in the wall… a hidden gem, and I for sure will be putting this in our family breakfast rotation after church or when family visits from out of town.A little pricey, but for everything it brings to the table, so WORTH it. 10 outta 10.

I am always in search of an authentic caldo de res (mexican beef stew) this place has it available everyday not only on the weekends and it's as authentic as it can get. It has plenty of vegetables and meat not like other places where they skim on the meat or its mostly just caldo (soup). Also, to my surprise it came with 4 homemade corn tortillas and a small side of rice. I will definitely be coming back it a small hole in the wall, but very welcoming.

Good clean service the whole area looks really clean the hand made tacos were big and great tasting I got the pastor and pollo(chicken) looking forward to trying to specialties they have because I was impressed with the excellent quality of food just a lil pricey those 2 tacos were about 11$ but I don't mind paying extra for great quality it was worth it!

I discovered this true "hole in the wall", mom and pop place on Yelp, so I had to give it a try. breakfast burrito: It's MASSIVE. However, it's mainly rice and beans. As a somewhat breakfast burrito purist, I don't believe there should be rice and beans in a breakfast burrito. The potatoes take the place of the rice, and the beans (which are delicious), tend to mask all the other flavors of the eggs, cheese, etc. So all I tasted was rice and beans. carnitas burrito - Once again, it was huge, but the carnitas were old and dried out. It was if it had been sitting in a chafing dish for 2 days... Sadly, I can't recommend this place.

This was my meal. It was tasty and delicious. A 3 chicken enchilada combo plate. The refried beans were creamy and smooth with a lot of flavor. The rice was reheated by pan frying it seemed as some rice bits were hard. The chicken enchiladas were great and tasty with the red sauce, could have used a little more sour cream on the side. After ordering this and a Coke can, my order came out to $22. As much as I'd like to support small, local businesses, this was much too pricey.
