    Taco de carnitas surtido
    Maria E.

    Food is amazing the carnitas are cooked to perfection Definitely worth every penny of it. It's always a place that you wanna come and enjoy good food. The staff is very very friendly.

    We visited on a Sunday morning, and it was a bit crowded. The food was delicious, and although the place is a bit small, the cashier was very friendly. Prices are a little on the higher side, but we'll definitely be coming back again someday

    Birria Plate

    I was really looking forward to this place. I thought going get some authentic flavors and style food out in the HD. From the outside it looks like going be a nice place they offer outdoor seating and it's in a good location. We walk it a party of four and I loved that they offer fresh tortillas it wasn't very appealing to the eye, sometimes doesn't but the soda machine was down, they advertised fresh juice (they had none) they only had horchata. The place felt not very welcoming or clean. We order the carne asada enchilada , the place was very pricey. They offered rice and beans.the food had zero flavor. I Personally feel the places was priced to high per plate , per person and the quality wasn't there for me. I order two Birria plates and there was no juice for beef. I was so disappointed with my overall experience. The fresh tortillas is the best thing they offer. They have potential but they need more flavor to the food and the carne asada was so fatty. I just don't see my self going back.

    The food was delicious! Carnitas were one of the best I've ever had. Everything is homemade and you can tell. It was my first time and I'll definitely be back soon!

    Chilaquiles con huevo
    Lucinda G.

    Food was really good very tasty chilaquiles were not soggy just perfect been going here since they first opened but the breakfast menu is new so had to try and. Is highly recommended they also have chilaquiles with carnitas which is their specialty so I will try on my next visit. Service always good Francisco and Karla always very attentive and friendly, ambiance is always good the smell of their carnitas brings you in the music puts you on a happy mood definitely our breakfast place on Sundays after church.

    The one and only spot you should be going to for carnitas and Mexican food. It's run by a cute couple who speaks very limited English, but the friendliest and most accommodating people around! Upon entering the store, you could see the whole kitchen and the husband making fresh corn tortillas. We got the special platter, some tacos, empanadas, menudo, and flan. Oh and took some chicharron to go :) Carnitas - lightly seasoned and has a nice meat to fat ratio. Which means super juicy meat to eat alone and inside any Mexican staple. Really the star of the show here Tacos - simple yet solid taco. We got Al pastor, chicken and carne asada. All super flavorful and loaded with favor. Menudo - don't pass this up. It had huge chunks of tripe and loads of them. Broth was rich and flavorful. No hominy unfortunately. But still one of the best I've had. Definitely would recommend this if you're still hungry :)

    Buche and Chicharrón taco.
    Eric L.

    The food here was amazing and it did not disappoint one bit. I ordered though DoorDash and next time it will be in person. The red and green salsa that was provided to me for the tacos had a taste that I've only tasted in Jalisco. The menudo was only meat with no hominy which is my preference. I ordered 1 taco de buche and 1 de chicharrón. Tacos were so fire. Definitely worth a try, I loved it. The packaging and presentation was the best I've seen from a Mexican restaurant in the HD.

    First time here for me and my wife will not be the last super friendly service family atmosphere food was incredible easy to order carnitas best we've had up here chicharron tacos best we had anywhere by far !! Carnitas torta was so fresh and juicy and huge sope it was incredibly big and full of flavor can't believe we only just found this hidden gem to top it off their micheladas we're fire best overall place we've been to in the high desert

    I remember going to Pancho Villas down the hill when I was a kid and we always had a good time…read more Even when they didn't have the live mariachi band, it has always been an enjoyable environment. We came here about 3 years ago for my son's birthday, and he insisted on coming back here again for this year's birthday. The waiter was nice and attentive, he didn't have any issues waiting when we needed more time to decide on our order, and he was quick to correct an issue when our food arrived. We never ran out of our drinks, which is a feat in itself with how fast the kids drain theirs! The best part for me was when I showed the waiter a picture of a drink I ordered 3 years ago and the bartender was able to replicate it and tell me what it was so I could order it again. It wasn't on their menu anymore, so it was impressive that he was able to identify it from a picture. Bring back the White wine Sangria, it's delicious! Oh, I also have to mention that when they brought the ice cream out to sing happy birthday, they made sure to include an ice cream for my 5 year old so that she didn't feel left out. I love that they took her into consideration.

The item was actually supposed to be chicken suizas, but we received chicken enchiladas with green sauce. Ironically, my mom liked this first order more than the second one. The shrimp in the shrimp fajitas was seasoned very well and I liked that it was visibly seared/grilled. My mom enjoyed her chicken enchiladas. 2nd order: Shrimp fajitas, but I received fajitas with chicken, shrimp and steak. I made an attempt to eat the steak but it was dry. We ordered chicken suizas and received the actual chicken suizas, which did not have shredded chicken but blocks of chicken. My mom hated this dish and said it made her sick unfortunately. The manager was gracious in correcting the mistakes and gave us some delicious churros, so that helped. The flour tortillas seemed handmade, they were very fluffy. The salsa and chips were good. I enjoyed my fajitas but sadly my mom hated the suizas.

I ordered two breakfast burritos and found the food to be pretty mediocre. The potatoes inside were undercooked and still hard, which really took away from the overall dish. The service was also a bit disappointing. The older lady who took my order came across as unpleasant and not very welcoming. On a positive note, the lady cooking in the back seemed much nicer from what I could see, even just from a distance. Overall, I was hoping for a much better experience given the strong rating, but this visit didn't live up to the expectations.

When you see a place with great reviews and inside a gas station (actually a small food court inside of a gas station), you get your hopes up. Something's did not disappoint, but a few items were a miss too. The good: menudo, taquitos and their salsas. They were out of oats and only comes with hominy, but flavors were spot on. Taquitos were crispy and flavorful. Salsas were fire. They had three and all were very good, with the dark red being spiciest. The ok: asada burrito and taco. Both were small and could have had a little more meat. Burrito was mostly beans and taco was tiny. The miss: hard shell taco. Was greasy greasy greasy! More lettuce and cheese could have masked that some, but was mostly tortilla which was drenched.
