    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.

    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!!!

    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

    This place looks a bit sketchy but don't let the rough exterior full you. Great food any time breakfast lunch or dinner. Home made corn tortillas. Friendly service.. Need I say more.

    Best menudo I have ever had.The spices in the menudo compliment each other. Enjoy it with their home made tortillas.

    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.

    Chicken enchilada plate $8.00 it was okay red sauce hint of spice. Family came to try the menudo.

Their portions are big and very satisfying. We always get the same thing because we love it. Asada tacos, shrimps tacos, quesadillas, and vegan torta. The tacos like I mention before asada meat it's very tender and very tasty, so flavorful. The shrimp tacos come in flour tortilla and they have Mexican rice and cheese. My husband live them. Their asada tacos are with corn tortilla and some beans. Then you add your choice of salsa. I get the torta which they add the refried beans, avocado, and onion and fresh tomato. It is very good. They have Mexican bottled drinks and fountain drinks. Also they have horchata and Jamaica aguas frescas. They salsas are good too. They have red spicy, red mild, green mild and pico de gallo.

As we were finishing our food they checked in on us to make sure everything was to our liking. There was no bakery aspect but they 100% delivered on fast, fresh and delicious food. Would absolutely visit again to get to try more of their menu! Gracias!

    I don't think I've ever felt betrayed by Yelp reviews...until now…read more During a recent road trip we stopped here to picked up some lunch/dinner because tacos are quick and easy and their Yelp rating is high. Location/services: Upon entering the building I immediately noticed the heat. It was a hot 98 degree day and the restaurant felt like an oven and was maybe 3-5 degree cooler than it was outside. I then quickly noticed this was a very simple operation (almost like a food truck), and not much to the menu, but there were folks sitting and eating and a few others waiting to order, so I assumed the food must be great. We ordered 4 meals (tacos with rice/beans) which was meant to be eaten there but after waiting in line and feeling like we were in a hot box, we decided to make it to go. We sat and waited for our food (about 20 mins), we chatted and observed our surroundings and it became very apparent the restaurant was not maintained with basic cleaning because it was very grimy and just plain dirty. I then used the restroom and it was absolutely disgusting. Our ordered was called and the staff was very nice. The food: As I mentioned, we got 4 orders of tacos (all carne asada) with rice/beans, and we asked for salsa and limes. We got grilled jalapenos, lemons and one sandwhich baggy filled with red salsa. Not a big deal. The meat was fine but the tortillas were inedible. They were tough, flavorless, and greasy. The bean and rice were ok. We ate enough to curb our hunger but none of us finish our food. Upon my best judgement, I had convinced myself that the food was gonna be great because their Yelp rating told me so. I was so wrong! One last note, there was nothing here that resembled a bakery/panaderia. So if you think you could also grab a treat here, you are wrong.

What could have been a disappointing surprise turned into one of the best local dining experiences we've had in a long time. We had the pleasure of meeting Miguel himself, and his hospitality immediately stood out. He took the time to introduce us to several items on the menu and encouraged us to try a little bit of everything. I'm glad he did. The red beans and rice were absolutely phenomenal, and every single thing we tasted was fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with pride. You can tell Miguel genuinely cares about both the food and the people he serves. What impressed me most wasn't just the food--it was the atmosphere. Miguel has a gift for making you feel welcome. His heart for hospitality is second to none, and it's obvious that serving great food and creating a great experience are his top priorities. If you're looking for a hidden gem in Clovis, this is it. Whether you're stopping in to catch a game, grab a meal with friends, or enjoy a simple flip-flop date night with your spouse, Miguel's is worth the visit. We'll definitely be back, and I can't recommend this place enough.

My sister introduced me to this place, and I'm actually waiting on her to come back to visit so that we can take another trip back together (it's been a minute)! It's got diner vibes to me. Booths, seats at the front counter facing the kitchen, and a few more tables in the center. It's not the most aesthetic restaurant but... it's on the corner of Blackstone & Dakota-- lol I didn't expect it to be. Friendly staff. Great chefs. Service is always good/quick. We've never waited long to have our orders taken or to receive our food. Now... those enchiladas! They're the closest thing to the type of enchiladas my best friend's mama makes (she's from Michoacan)-- she makes the best, most authentic Mexican food! SO, when I can't get them from her... I know where to go. They are cheese enchiladas-- served with lettuce, tomatoes, avocados, and sour cream.. sprinkled with cotija cheese. They also come with some bomb potatoes and your choice of chicken or steak-- we always go steak. Sooo good and the flavors are always on point! + They give complimentary chips and salsa-- very good. We use that same salsa for the enchis. Pair it with a crisp coke, chef's kiss! If it wasn't obvious, it's a yes from me. This little hole-in-the-wall family-run business needs more recognition!
