    The best mesquite chicken ever. My husband and I were driving by and have seen it before and decided to stop by. Right away we were greeted by the Señora and she was super sweet and kind. We got the whole chicken meal that came with cut up chicken, tortillas which were handmade beans, rice, and salsa. Let me tell you the flavor was so amazing. Super juicy and super fresh chicken. We enjoyed it so much we went back again this week. When we went it was calm but it can get busy at times.

    Half chicken where ?
    Dante D.

    16$ for a half of a chicken .. seriously ? ( for the location I think is way too overpriced ) This looks more like a breast chicken chopped in 4 parts !! Taste is salty and you can even taste the pepper . What a rip off . Always check your bag before taking it home .

    Best Mexican authentic food in Los Angeles

    Oh my God the chicken here is so fresh and delicious. You can taste the barbecue on the delicious crunchy skin made to perfection. I never had refried beans this delicious. The homemade tortillas are amazing. Everything here is serve fresh the service is great. The prices are amazing. I highly recommend one of the best Mexican lunches I ever had probably the best in Pacoima.

    We were disgusted with their Chile Rojo burrito. It was watery and the meat...well there was NO meat, it was ALL fat. We will never go back.

    Soo goood! Called ahead for a pick up order…read more Ordered 5 asada tacos with cilantro onion and salsa on side Tacos come with cheese as well (nice surprise as it pulled everything together) I don't usually like cheese on my tacos but these had a great balance of flavor and were made with love! Guy who took my order was very very kind and hard working. I came during a rush, it's a small place with probably 10 tables total and it's a very casual setting in a plaza with a lot of different stores and supermarkets. The sign is pretty small so keep an eye out but I would 100% come here again. My to go container came with lemons also and they do not skimp out on anything! Portions are great for the price - 5 tacos for $15

    PSA: THEY CLOSE AT 7:30 PM…read more Google and Yelp say this place closes at 8. We called to place a takeout order at 7:15pm and we're on our way already. The guy who was taking our order asked me what time we'd be there because they close at 7:30. I told him we would be there a few minutes after 7:30 and that if they were about to close it was fine, we could order somewhere else. The guy insisted and was very nice and let me place an order with them. I got a wet burrito de asada with green sauce and it was so good! Their green sauce was spicy and had a nice brightness to it. I would definitely order this again, especially with the amazing customer service. We also got a chicken burrito and I think they use the fajita chicken to make it so there were green bell peppers in it, which was interesting. I wouldn't get the chicken burrito again but the wet burrito was really good. If you want great service and tasty food, I'd recommend this place.

    We went in for breakfast and food was delicious and priced well. I had the menudo, it's flavorful…read moreand the homemade corn tortillas are delicious. (No homemade flour) They have a great variety of food to pick from. When we went in they did not have someone seating people so you basically wait in line and wait until someone gets up to take the table. I think it can be a little uncomfortable for the people eating, but not really a big deal. Luckily we had two people in front of us sit at a table too big for them and they offered us to sit with them which we did not mind at all. So if you get a big table, offer someone to sit with you. We only waited a few minutes for them to take our order and our food was out soon after that. Only a minus one star because the seating arrangement is a little weird, but their food and service is great. They even had musicians walking around playing - make sure to tip them!

Finally, my husband and I had a chance to dine in on Sunday. We got there around 10:30 am. The parking lot was packed but found parking on the side street. Once inside, we waited less than 5 minutes, someone got up and we sat down. The waitress came over right away to take our order. My husband ordered the costillitas en chile rojo with rice and beans. It was so good. That is one of the popular dishes. I decided to get the Menudo, it was so Delicious, it even had some pasta meat and some hominy. This included homemade corn tortillas. It is so nice to see all the hard working ladies in the kitchen, especially the ones making the tortillas, now that is a special gift to manually make them! We really enjoyed the food, next time I will order the tortillas to go ahead of time, since it takes awhile for them to prepare. Service was Excellent, especially the waitress, she was so attentive!
