This place is not much on ambiance since it's at the back of a grocery store. However the food is very good and the tostada de ceviche is probably the best I've ever had. We will be back.

Crazy good, authentic food. Love their food and Margaritas. We enjoy the Birria Pizza, queso fundido, enchiladas. When the have seafood from across the street it is great too.

Authentic Mexican restaurant with a deep menu of delicious choices! The service was attentive and the Margaritas were delicious and not too sweet. We enjoyed the Camerones cocatel as an appetizer. Molcajete was spicy and delicious--and huge! Mojarra was crispy and fresh. It was a Monday so there weren't many people in the place, but there was a constant flow of a few tables. Everything was clean and I would return for a real local experience. The grocery store attached is also pretty cool with lots of spices and a meat counter.

Everything was delicious except the posole. That was just awful. It tasted like rotten meat or some kind of dead material. It was so bad I came home and threw up from it a couple of hours later so I know something was wrong with it. The chilaquiles with the steak was on point!

Authentic and delicious! I got the combo fajitas and it was fantastic. My bf had a burrito and loved it. Definitely will be back!!!

Great food and drinks at a reasonable price. Inside a Mexican grocery store which is a nice bonus. Great chips and salsa while we waited for our food , which we enjoyed as well. Great place to stop on the way to watch the horses run nearby.

Horrible service. The waitresses pick and choose who they will sit first and how they will service the customer.

This is a great find for authentic Mexican food. One of my Mexican friends took me here so I knew if he said it was going to be authentic it would be. I had the Tacos de Birria and he had the Torta. I had never had tacos de Birria before and would definitely recommend. The tacos are deep fried, which I'm told maybe they shouldn't be, but I still liked them. Dipped into this amazingly flavorful consume broth it really was a terrific dish. I tried some of the Torta and it is also delicious. Wait staff spoke English well enough but having a native Spanish speaker at the table added to the overall authenticity. Looking forward to going back to try more of their menu!
