Guacamole
I P.

I didn't take a picture, but the food here always hits the spot. The atmosphere here is awesome, And the service is great. I live in Phoenix AZ, but stop here every time Im in town. The enchiladas are great, the menudo is perfect, and the mole is delicious. That's what I've had here recently (not all at once)

Ceviche de camaron
Jessica C.

The food is fresh . So delicious ! The chips and salsa are addicting! Salsa is so good I wanted to take some home! Guacamole also right on top of the favorites list. The service was great, lots of smiles and attentiveness to what their clients need. We did not wait long. The ambiance is very nice not loud, great Latin music playing.

Campechana with shrimp, octopus, and abalone

We went on a Saturday night. It was busy and fun. It was clean and decorated for the holiday. The entertainment was light and family friendly. Really goodKaraoke singers and a man singing entertainer. Dj was good too. Food Service was quick when we got there but after we were served we had to flag down the employees for a drink refill, To go boxes, and the bill. Lots of people walking through selling flowers, although we declined they were polite. There was a wait to get in by the time we left.

Ceviche De Pescado Coctel De Camaron
Carlos R.

Ordered a cóctel de camarón and ceviche de pescado. The cóctel was fire and had lots of shrimp and flavor. The ceviche needed bit more flavor but it was decent. Definitely coming back here.

A truly authentic Mexican restaurant with lots of seafood options. There's a good sized bar by the entrance, several big screen TV's throughout the place, lots of booths, and a few really long tables for big groups, which they do get a lot of here. The staff is great and the food is amazing, just like having a home cooked meal at my grandmas. The only difference is for entertainment on the weekends, they have a guy walk around singing along with a portable karaoke device. It gets loud during that time. This was my first visit here, and I very rarely have menudo so I had to go with that today. It's just a tad on the spicier side from what I'm used to, but just as delicious and flavorful as it's supposed to be. This soup, along with pozole is only served on the weekends. I did have a taste of the carne asada plate and it was so good. Perfectly seasoned meat served with a mound of guacamole, rice and beans with thick homemade corn tortillas. I'm definitely ordering that plate next time.

Authentic Mexican food in big portions can be found here. Guacamole salsa was amazing. Fajitas were great and the chicken was cooked perfectly, leaving it moist and not dry. Burrito was huge! Had to take home as key overs. Food came out quickly. The staff was attentive.

Lo único bueno en este lugar es la música este ceviche No tenía Nada de sabor, y fue mi primera y ultima vez

We recently relocated from Garden Grove to the Santa Ana/Fountain Valley area and have been on the…read morehunt for a Mexican restaurant to fill the void left by our beloved spot in Los Alamitos. Thanks to Restaurant Week, we stumbled upon this gem, and we are so grateful. The hospitality alone would earn five stars. But then came the food. The tacos? Absolutely exceptional. The steak was tender and flavorful in a way that reminded me of eating throughout Mexico, you could actually taste the meat. A light, gentle pickle of vegetables on top, minimal cheese, nothing heavy or greasy. These are not the American-style tacos drowning in a pound of melted cheese. These are the real thing. The beans were lovely, the rice was solid, and my passion fruit winearita drink was genuinely a treat. Restaurant Week gave us the perfect low-pressure reason to try somewhere new, and we walked out with a new favorite. We'll be back for lunch. We'll be back for dinner. And yes, Taco Tuesday, we'll absolutely be back for that.

Honestly, I have no idea how this restaurant has nearly 5 stars…read more We arrived around 6 PM with a party of 6 adults and 3 toddlers, and we didn't receive our food until almost 8 PM. To make matters worse, one of our meals was completely forgotten. The service was extremely slow throughout the entire visit. Every time we needed something, whether it was a refill, an update, or assistance, the wait felt excessive. The restaurant may have potential because the food itself was flavorful, but it seemed like they were either understaffed or unprepared for the number of customers they had. Another disappointment was the drink selection. We were told they don't have a liquor license, so hard alcohol isn't available. Their sodas were canned, and when we asked for juice for the kids, they told us they were completely out. As for the atmosphere, the restaurant is on the smaller side and felt more like a converted house than a traditional restaurant, complete with a fireplace and television in the dining area. The food had good flavor, which is the only reason I'm giving more than one star. Unfortunately, the long wait times, missing meal, lack of drink options, and poor service made the overall experience disappointing.

Service was excellent - taking orders and handling needs was not a problem for all the staff here. The World Cup was showing on all the screens, which was appreciated. But the tacos here really shine - fresh, and flavorful and unique. Can't wait to come back!

Great vibe and a really nice patio, but the food and service were a bit hit or miss for us…read more Hubs and I split two dishes: the queso fundido and shrimp ceviche. The queso fundido sounded promising, but there was very little chorizo, and the homemade tortillas were just okay. The shrimp ceviche had whole medium-sized shrimp, which made it a little awkward to eat, and it was too sweet for my taste with the mango. It was also pretty watery, though it was made without cucumber for me, so maybe that changed the balance. Our server, Ricky, was fair. Not bad, but not especially attentive either. A party of six was seated after we ordered and somehow received their food before we did. My margarita also came out wrong, which didn't help the experience. The patio and overall atmosphere are definitely the highlight. Would I go back? Jury's still out. I wouldn't reorder these dishes, but I might give the place another shot for the vibe and try something different.

It is next to a gas station. It looks like a pretty popular place during the lunch hour. It's a smaller place inside, but they do have an outdoor patio. We were able to find a small table, not too far from the front counter. Ordering at the front was easy. The staff was friendly and quick. We could see the cook grilling up the meats as we placed our order. There were at least five different salsas to choose from as well as cucumbers and a chili oil at the self-serve salsa bar. I noticed a customer in front of us ordered a kids plate which included two street tacos and rice and beans. That's what I ended up ordering with Carne Asada and chorizo. There were four or five proteins to choose from for the kids plate. I loved the grilled meats with the char flavor. It was delicious! Everything was well seasoned. I wish I would've ordered a third or maybe even a fourth taco because it was that good! I will definitely come back many times and it's going to be on our lunch rotation for sure.

The burrito was solid sized, I was definitely full after eating it. Great seasoned potato wedges inside, tasty egg, and plenty of bacon and sausage. Only thing with the bacon and sausage was that the bacon was actually bacon bits. I'm pretty sure they are pre bagged bacon bits, judging by the extreme salty taste...they overpowered the sausage inside so all I was really getting was bacon bits. There was supposed to be chipotle mayo inside as well, but I don't think mine had it. Or it was also overpowered by the bacon bits. Burrito was grilled on both sides and wrapped up nicely. By the time I got it, it was still super hot. The green and red salsas are also delicious.
