I went here due to seeing it for years in Fresno. Then I seen all these reviews with 5. It has to be good. WRONG!!!! I like supporting business especially the mexican community. Unfortunately, this place is small, dirty, food was not authentic. If you can't get the Rice and Beans right, then you shouldn't cook. I won't be back. People giving 5 stars to this place don't know real food. read more

Best place for Menudo!!! Service is great and they are great with to go orders if you're in a rush just call ahead!

I'm writing this review in spanish so that the owner can read this and understands how disappointed I am in their service. El peor servicio! Mi esposo y yo nos encanta el menudo aquí pero nunca más vamos a regresar. Tomó mucho orgullo en soportar mi raza. Pero hoy el servicio fue lo peor! Primera y última ves. Nos ignoraron, tomaron como veinte minutos para que no atendieron. Y veinte minutos para al fin comer. Mientras atendieron y despacharon cuatro mesas que llegaron después de nosotros. Durante la pandemia ordenábamos de aqui. Y no vivimos cerca. Prefiero comer menudo de lata, a que nos traten así. read more

Best menudo y town!!! Manuel offers great customer service! Prices are great! Menudito, avocado, and add a cheese quesadilla read more

Best menudo in town!!!! Gotta get there early on Sundays cuz the place gets packed!!! Which is the only down side cuz it's hard to find parking and a place to sit in this little hole in the wall but the menudo is worth it and keeps us coming back even if we have to deal with the crowds...and the Pata is always on point!!!! And a super big plus is their homemade tortillas...mmmmmmm....soooooo good!!! read more

OH MY GOODNESS BEST MENUDO EVER! I drive from clovis to this place, and as a regular I'll inform you that when it comes to seating it takes time, they are very attentive to those who are seated. So when you walk in it may feel like they are ignoring you but they know your there and will seat you when they are ready! Fresh food doesn't come out fast and this stuff is top notch mom and pop Mexican food. Coming from Oaxacan descent I only accept Mexican food with LOTS of flavor, this place is the bomb! read more

My wife and I have been coming here since 2001, and my son from 2006 to now. He is 15 years old and has his friends hooked too. This food tastes just like how mama used to make. I don't know if you people ever heard of the phrase, don't judge a book by its cover. This definitely applies. Great hole in the wall. Chili Verde. Chips and Salsa, ( hot but addictive) Culo on fire when you get home read more

Best menudo in Fresno. You can order whoever you like; with or without red Chile, or with or without tripe of hominy. Food is super tasty and they serve fresh homemade. Service is incredibly fast, at least for menudo. Not sure how long it takes for other items. read more

Love this place! Every time I come in here it reminds me of the little holes in the wall in Mexico. The food is so freakn good too.

Great authentic Mexican food! Brought a lot of friends here for the menudo. Chile verde quesadilla was really good. Sopes were good too, great size. We usually order two plates of food per person lol read more

Ordered Menudo I found that without any condiments added to it it could not stand on its own...not much flavor to broth...under seasoned. Lack luster salsa served with the chips. Also was bothered by several flies. read more

Best menudo I have ever had. Fully cooked , no chewy raw menudo. The spices in the menudo compliment each other. Enjoy it with their home made tortillas. It gets packed in here, the early bird gets the worm. I'm addicted. I find myself coming in here every Sunday morning. I give the menudo 5 stars, I have not tried anything else on the menu. read more

Fabulous food! Quick, hearty and inexpensive. Spotless kitchen. Friendly staff. AND homemade tortillas! read more

It's need to be clean because I found a roach in my drink I should of took a picture of it and didn't even wanna give me a discount!

Overall average hole in the wall place to go. Small place, overcrowded, seats are small def not a place to bring your whole family. We sat at a table for four and fit 6 people next to the front door. (Super crowded) As other reviews service takes long, they brought our drinks during and after they brought our food out. Has to be because there is not enough waitresses had to have my family go up and ask for to go box and bill and waive to get attention to get ingredients for our food and utensils. Overall family rated the menudo average. Wasn't comfortable setting to eat at for me and my family. Family did rave over their home made tortillas (5 stars). read more

La Placita - Chicken enchilada plate $8.00 it was okay red sauce hint of spice. Family came to try the menudo. - Mexican Near Me - Fresno, California

The day after a long night out, I was looking for a "go-to" restaurant to get a bowl of menudo. I did not find it here. It was watery, flavorless, and the texture of the meat was off. My dining comrade ordered the siete mares, he had to work with it quite a bit adding lemon, chili, and oregano to make it somewhat tasty. The staff was not unpleasant, but had to be flagged down in order to get something. The homemade corn tortillas were forgettable. I was super excited to try this place out after reading the reviews, so it was pretty disappointing when the experience was far cry from what I'd read. Maybe it was an off day for them....but I'm not going back to find out. read more

Excellent AUTHENTIC Mexican restaurant! Favorites=huevos rancheros, Flautas de carne. They even "created" a kids' meal for my son: cheese quesadillas and fried potatoes (papas). read more

Just finished having breakfast and the worst service ever your so rushed after you get your food that you can't enjoy it don't think I'll be going back read more

This place is fucking nasty af! The menudo stinks so bad! Menudo shouldn't smell the way it did. The caldo de res was disgusting!!! It seems like they don't clean their meat. Never coming here again. And to top it off there was hair in the food the aguas fescas had a sour taste like they're old or something. Fucking horrible man, totally not worth the money! read more

Pops brings all the family here to try it. Our first time and I am hooked. Delicious food with great service. You have to try it!

Came here because place was given 4 star review. Uuuumm...I wasn't impressed. More like ok. I cook waaay better than this. Plus, the place has too much noise from the floor fans blowing and yet it feels stuffy in here. I wouldn't come back. Thumbs down. read more

Good home made mexican food. They make everything fresh

I love this place .... Great omelets .. Yum caldo de res and there shrimp is very good also !!! A must if you want the real deal

My mother suggested this place for our afternoon lunch and never have I been to a Mexican restuarant like this. You walk and you feel and experience the Mexican culture with the interior design as if it were Mexico itself. But the service at first was sketchy, the waiter taking our order didn't even have a notepad to write down our order as if he was just expecting to remember everything, so I gave him the benefit o the doubt, When our food arrive, just as I thought, he didn't get it correct. Then the presentation of the food was just horrible, not appealing what so ever. My drink had floating specks of something. And once we were ready to pay I got up to pay at the counter, only to be sent back to my table because the waiter was supposedly going to bing the bill to the table. I then waited for countless minutes or the bill but it was never brought. The man picking up our plates just informed me the amount I had to pay and to go pay it at the counter. I went back up to the counter paid, an wasn't even given a receipt. Not to mention their kids o grandchildren, or whomever were running around, fighting, and crying throughout attempting to enjoy my meal. I couldn't even have a conversation with my mother because of it and they did nothing to quiet them down. All in all, it was the worst place I've ever been to. And I won't be returning. read more

By far some of the best homemade Mexican food. Love that everyone speaks Spanish and the mariachi music is perfect for the food pairing!! 8-) sodas are cans so if you are a heavy liquid drinker prep yourself. The salsa and chips are amazing. My partner had the chile verde and eggs and he loved it. I had the sopes platter and oh my gosh it was to die for. read more

The service was very quick and friendly. The food most excellent. My hubby had the fish soup and I had the garlic shrimp. Very pleased with the quality and quantity. You don't need to speak Spanish to understand or order from the menu. Parking was a bit difficult but worth it. read more

Ok guys I went back again today. The chili verde was amazing. They definitely cooked the meat down and the cause was just right...not too hot not too bland. Must try read more

Great food!!!! The workers are very unfriendly. Tortillas are so good I don't care...

HOMEMADE CORN TORTILLAS! That's what draws me here. Kind of like a hole in the wall, family ran. Prices vary but are reasonable for the amount of food you receive. Free chips and salsa when you sit down, the salsa is very good; spicy and a bit smokey. Unfortunately they don't make flour tortillas, but the corn are great! Love to get my tacos here based on the tortillas alone. Good for lunch and groups; they also have good aguas frescas. read more

Food was okay. Had the milanesa, and my husband had the pork ribs Handmade tortillas were awesome.

bomb ass birria and menudo for that weekend hang over ! did i forget to mention with home made tortillas ?!

This is easily my favorite spot for menudo. Massive quantity, tons of hominy and the best honeycomb tripe because of its tender texture, not chewy. And if that wasn't good enough, it comes with hand made corn tortillas. Bomb.com read more

I have been going here for years. Its just a little whole in the wall, but they serve amazing food. I would defintely recommend this restaurant if youre looking for authenticity. read more

Great food prepared just the way we like it. Highly recommend for authentic Mexican cuisine.

I'm craving the food as I'm writing this review...my son introduced this resturant to me over 10 yrs, My choice for my birthday, Mother's Day my kids don't even ask anymore....It is sooo good and they don't mind puting extra touches if you request it just for you, ummm. The most authentic next to my Ama's (grandma) food....exterior not much to look at but have never been disappointed in the food inside. Owner are old-school hard working LADY, NOTHING FROZEN like my previous favorite place on the same street. If I can't cook myself....I take everyone who comes into town because I know they'll taste good cooking next to mine. Their salsa read more

The GIANT sign outside clearly states that they are open seven days a week until 8:00pm. Right now, at 6:35pm my family and I were walking to the front door when a lady comes out and quickly turns the sign to "closed" and goes back inside to lock the door. I tried to knock on the door to ask them what their hours are, for my future reference. No answer. I tried calling the phone number listed on the door. No answer. I KNOW they were in there. Completely rude, especially since I just wanted clarification for the NEXT TIME I decide to drive across town to eat at this restaurant. It's a shame; I haven't been in years, but I know it USED to be good. read more
