    Very nice , very clean, great customer service. I forgot to take a picture of my food, but we got tacos, regular asada and birria asada with cheese, a veggie burrito and piña frescas. We were also given fresh chips and salsa, two types of salsa. We were offered a second round of chips but when they came out they were burnt. The waitress did offer to make new ones though, but we declined. I really loved how clean and nicely setup they were the most, but I would still also recommend to give their food a try!

    I live in the neighborhood and was walking by and saw a sign for Chilaquiles on the window and had to give it a shot. Most important thing first, food was great. The chips were perfectly sauced, my carnitas were as flavorful as I'd expect them to be. Great dish. Even more importantly though, the customer service is phenomenal. The girl Mona who was working the front was very welcoming and obviously loves her job. She was attentive without being too much, just fantastic. It's a small but adorable place. They have a cute Instagramable wall for pics for ppl who do that sort of thing. It was nice having a leisurely Sunday breakfast at a cute little spot in my neighborhood. I'm definitely going to coming back and trying more options. Hmm....birria chilaquiles?

    Had the Chilaquiles  took the kiddos after church  My daughters had pancakes and another had fijtas.

    The birria Plate

    I got the Birria (Goat) plate it was delicious and I tried both the salsas they were delicious as well. They serve you a lot & the price is so reasonable. Mona my server was such a sweetheart. I will definitely be coming back soon.

    Sooo goood and the service is excellent!!!

    Food was delicious.. services excellent!! ..unlimited salsa and chips and the best part of it too is the Agua Fresca.. We got the pineapple and it's free refill..

    Birria lunch combo #5

    This place is a 10/10, clean environment, friendly hospitable service , quick on getting the food out, I got the lunch combo #5 of 3 quesa birria tacos , it was reasonably priced with great portions even consomé, and chips/salsa while you wait . Salsas tasted fresh , will be back again !

    Enchiladas Verdes

    Food was fairly priced especially for the portion you get. The waitress was very friendly and attentive. The vibe gives off hole in the wall Mexican restaurant and the food definitely drives it home. I will probably be coming here more often due to the nice vibe, excellent service and tasty food.

    Mona brought out chips and salsa for us, the salsa is simple and clean with a kick at the back of your throat.

    Finally tried this place out! We had the papas asada and it was great! It wasn't dry. Lots of meat…read moreand right amount of cheese. Downside is just parking around the neighborhoods then you have to walk over. But hey I think it's worth the small walk and think of it as exercise before you dig into your awesome meal.

    So, I turned to TikTok, the treasure trove of foodie recommendations, hoping to discover something…read morespecial. That's when I found this gem! I realized that this pop-up was actually just a street away from where I live, which made the decision even easier. Upon arriving, I encountered a bit of a wait--there were at least 15 folks ahead of me in line, eagerly anticipating their delicious orders. After standing in line for about 10 minutes, I could sense excitement building in the air as the line inched forward. As I observed the scene, I couldn't help but feel the buzz of anticipation surrounding me.. The flavors of sweet marinated pork and fresh pineapple have a way of dancing on your palate. I plan to capture a few photos to share once I'm a little closer to the front of the line. Got a taco dinner $10 rice,beans and 3 tacos and Agua fresca horchata So here's the review I got three tacos Al pastor 2/5 no flavor .. it was missing more citrus and seasoning,even the piña bites where bland Carne Asada 2/5 it taste like reheated leftovers in which he poured all the meat on the plancha Pollo 4/5 had seasoning Rice 4/5 flavorful Beans 2/5 no flavor ,pinto beans Horchata 3/5 overly sweet Overall they hype is not what you think. Tacos are affordable,Agua frescas $5 Will I be back probably not.

Our service was very slow and the drinks took a very long time to come out. We were some of the only people in the restaurant, so I can't blame it on being very busy. My girlfriend ordered a mojito and it tasted more like a margarita than anything. Our appetizer was okay but for the price you pay you don't get much. My burrito was decent, nothing to write home about. But you could definitely get a better one in Long Beach for $5 cheaper. My girlfriend ordered a salmon special which was about $30. I've never had a more overcooked piece of fish in my life. When the server asked how our food was I informed her the food was extremely overcooked. She didn't seem to care and there was no offer to find some kind of solution. I wasn't expecting a comped dish or anything special, but a little acknowledgement would have been appreciated. I wouldn't reccomend this place but if you're going to the club there and want food I guess this could be a decent option.

    Solidly okay mexican food, I've had better, and I've had worse. The steak in the fajitas was really…read moresoft, but I don't remember anything else being remarkable. The building didn't say "Next Door" anywhere on it, so I was unsure if we were at the right place.
