I LOVE this place! Yes it's a little small, but that doesn't mean not to give it a shot. I didn't have any bad vibes from the waitresses in fact they kept asking me what I needed. If I ordered. If I'm okay. Not to rush me out, but to make sure I had everything I needed. The owners themselves are amazing, great people. The place feels so cozy. The food is delicious. The meat is well marinated & they pack up your food. My gorditas were CHONKY!! give this place a try if you're around the area. They deserve all the San Fernando love! read more

I enjoyed the food here. The server was so sweet and made everyone feel like they were home visiting grandma. The service was quick and the restaurant was really clean. The flavor was ok. For my taste it was bland. But everyone said the food was ok. I would come back and try other options. I have the huevos rancheros and it tasted watery read more

Full house and no acknowledgment or we will be with you in a moment or nothing. Disappointed to say the least. Place looked dirty as well.

Authentic eats!!! Service is Amazing I don't know how these woman memorize the orders nothing jotted down! Small, area expect a wait especially on the weekends that's when the crowd is sure to come! Food comes out quick and everything I tried was great! Menudo was good! Clean and tortillas handmade! I also had to try the costillas per recommendation! Everything was great and home made by the Mexican tias themselves! I felt at home here! Kids had carne asada tacos and those were good! Husband is a repeat customer who introduced us to this hidden gem and always opts for birria de Chivo! All in all great spot! Great food and great ambiance! Cash preferred here! Thanks Tias!!! read more

Small place. Rice and beans were very good. I had the cheese enchiladas because they don't offer chicken. My husband loved his food.

A gem in the San Fernando valley, great authentic food. My favorite is the tongue, machaca con huevos, chorizo con huevos but you really can't go wrong. Also the costillas de puerco are excellent but I was not impressed with the menudo but most everything else is very good. Excellent service very friendly as it is in Mexico. You don't come here for the ambience you come here for the food. This is as close as you will get to eating in Michoacán. read more

3 small tacos for $15. I thought it was expensive given that there were no sides. They were just okay.

I feel like I just finished eating grandmas cooking:') absolutely hands down the best restaurant chilaquiles. Spicy and still enjoyable. The salsas and vibes are super authentic. Great customer service. HOMEMADE tortillas, enough said:) read more

Waitress are rude they look manly. Too scary plus no refill on the coffee They want you out of there as soon as youre done

The enchiladas w/shredded beef were good. The staff is friendly and let me sit wherever even going solo. The only improvement they can make is bringing the bill faster. I had to ask a few times. read more

I just have to. When we talk about authentic Mexican food, this is it! This is this little hole in the wall with tremendous flavor. A special spirited woman runs the place. She is deeply rooted to her culture. She was welcoming and accommodating to your needs. We had the gorditas for breakfast. Not your average breakfast but everything was made from scratch. The taste was proven so. CHEFS KISS read more

The chilaquiles were tasteless. As a matter of fact the only thing I could taste was the lard they used to cook them in. I also asked for over easy eggs but I got over hard. Called and told them about the eggs and how I could taste the lard and the lady on the phone got upset and told me to bring my plate back and hung up. Didn't go back and never will go back. read more

Tengo años volviendo! El mundo, Biriria de chivo y gorditas están riquísimas! Siempre me atiendes muy rápido y con mucho amor.

So good !! Tacos dorados 10/10 recommend!! And service is always so friendly never fails to satisfy us !!

Ready good home style food here. The refried beans are amazing along with the tortillas. The chilaquiles are the best.

Great friendly service & Excellent homemade cooking. Every plate we ordered was delicious!

The food was reasonably priced and tasted delicious. My family and I especially enjoyed their tortillas. The service was amazing. The woman who helped us was friendly and quite funny. If I was a local, I'd be coming here very frequently. read more

Parking in the back. It gets extremely crowded in the mornings on the weekend, so make sure you go early. The food there is typical, they have live music in the mornings where these performers come in, perform, and you can tip them if you'd like. I had the menudo, it was alright, I think I have had better but this wasn't bad. read more

El Nayarit - Live music on Sunday morning - Mexican Near Me - San Fernando, California

First of all who wants to hear glaringly loud accordions while waiting 50 minutes to be served. The plates are priced as if you are in Dubai and the servers have a very friendly attitude to make up for the fact that they forget absolutely everything because they are too busy. I'm sure the owner is too cheap to hire more help so you will always wait an hour to be seated and to be charged as if you are in a 10 star Japanese restaurant. I'll tell you how the food was after I wait because we've been waiting forever. And this is the third time they got the order wrong, my date is halfway done with her food and I'm still waiting: because they forget everything. Nice attitude piss water service. Now that h have finished my food it was Amazing but not worth the stress. They did their best but they aren't organized at all. It should be the most important thing to carry at least a notepad with the fucking orders. They're just trying to remember everything and it's obviously not working. While waiting I've also seen a bunch of people having similar complaints. Come here if you want good food and a stressful time getting it. read more

The food was pretty good! The pick up service wasn't too shabby either. I paid $38 (tax included) for chilaquiles, a burrito, and 3 tacos. The chilaquiles come with a lot of tortilla, so I would suggest asking for an extra egg to even things out. read more

Amazing enchiladas. Authentic home made Mexican food. Not to many place out there like this restaurant. Weekends are busy with there menudo.

This place is authentic! Little tiny place that has 7-8 booths and about 3 tiny tables in the middle isle. There was a lady who greeted us and reminded me of my Tia's (aunts) in Mexico. We kept it safe and simple with a plate of carne Asada with rice and beans, red chilaquiles with beans and eggs over easy. I ordered chorizo con huevos, rice and beans. We also order coffee and horchatas. The coffee is nothing fancy, it's literally OG style coffee from the kettle brewer (since now in days we mostly have a Keurig) but it has nostalgia written all over. There was only one server. The lady who greeted us when we went in so it might take a bit to get your food but it's well worth it. Once we got our food we got the amazing hand made tortillas which literally make all the difference in the world. We cleaned our plates, sorry no picks my little one was using my phone. She tends to be a picky eater but not here, she ate 2 tortillas stuffed with cheese (queso fresco that I asked for separately) beans and chorizo. Oh and remember to bring cash since they don't take anything else. Will definitely be back. You wont be disappointed. read more

Beware , avoid this place at all cost . This place only accepts cash and does not give you a receipt. I've been here on a few occasions and noticed I was being overcharged by a dollar or two here and there which i didn't pay attention until this last visit , the lady literally try to rip me off $8 more than what it should of been. This is not cool especially when your a loyal customer and tip . read more

I hadn't been to this place in a while. I was so disappointed to see that Nena was no longer there. Nena was my favorite. She made the best Horchata and salsa. She was so helpful and always had a smile. Amalia is cool but the food and drinks are not the same anymore. I feel like the owners changed or something happened because I use to enjoy their food and service so much. Nena definitely made it worth the wait during rush hour. read more

Food was decent...the menudo was okay and so was their birria. Parking available on-site or street. The customer service was great! I wish they had music playing in the background but the jukebox was not on (or working). I loved the Diego Rivera artwork. Prices were within range of other Mexican restaurants. read more
