    Asada nachos in smaller to go box. Less food.
    Viviana C.

    I've been coming here since I was in middle school and LOVED the nachos. They're still good and the service has always been good. The place isn't big but it isn't small either and is always clean and neatly organized. The only reason I'm giving it a 3 star is because they've made the nacho to go boxes smaller and for the price you'd think they'd keep it the same but I am 100% getting less than I have before. I ordered the nachos with the intention of sharing and imagine my surprise when I saw the smaller box compared to the old one.

    Morning Menudo
    Melinda B.

    I returned and had chorizo with eggs breakfast, and asked my chorizo and eggs smothered with the sauce they put on their wet burritos. It was good! I'm not sure what things cost bc I never pay when I go (I get paid for by family) but I saw a complaint regarding high pricing. I know regulars who have been going there for YEARS, including me.

    Menudo

    The menudo was just okay. It was not cooked enough to the hominy was still pretty solid instead of soft. The large is really small and not worth the amount of money charged. They also do serve breakfast regardless of what the owner says.

    Wet burrito .... Too much wet

    Terrible , terrible , terrible ..... This place not only has no menu , but their supposed menu is a bunch of pictures above where u order that look like this pictures are from 1975 , they are all fade it out and you can't tell what is what on those pictures , the plate that I tough was a carne Asada plate , when I ask the lady she told me was chilaquiles , and what I tough I saw in another picture to be fish was chicken fajitas ... In another words good luck getting thru the order process . Then I ask for a wet burrito , I have to say was ok , but the wet sauce was the most acid taste sauce I ever tasted , was giving me heartburn in every bite ... Not a really enough sitting places , maybe 7 tables , so u better off looking for Mexican food somewhere else

    Food is not all that like it was before. And they charge me $17.08 for a chile relleno wet burrito.

I've been here before, and they never disappoint. The ambiance is very nice, with good Mexican music and a family-friendly atmosphere. We ordered some Aguachiles, Guacamole, Ceviche de Camarón, Camarones de Cilantro, Carne, a la Mexicana, which comes with tortillas and consume. The food was delicious, and the beers were cold as always. My total bill was $265.99 with tip, and it was worth it. Although this place is always pricey, you're paying for quality, not quantity. I am thinking about returning to watch a couple of World Cup games because I know the vibe will be fantastic.

    Great burritos, their salsa tastes amazing, and huge portions…read more I got a wet veggie burrito, half and half sauce, and it was a treat. It came with 4 tostada shells and salsa verde. Food was good, the burrito sauces were tasty and flavored well. I could easily share this portion size with another person. The hostess handling patrons and customers was super sweet to work with and order from. She did an amazing job handling customers that came into the restaurant. The restaurant itself was quite packed, get there early to secure a seat or (see if you can) call ahead of time. The price for the burrito was more expensive than typical places which is why I'd rate it 4/5 stars, otherwise 5 star food!

    The atmosphere was extremely dark -- almost too dark. The restaurant itself is small and narrow,…read morewhich gives it the feel of a dim alleyway, decorated with colorful Mexican festive banners hanging overhead. Some people may enjoy that style, but for me it felt overly dark and somewhat cramped. The service was okay. Nothing particularly good or bad stood out. As for the food, based on previous reviews, I expected something above average or even excellent. That really was not the case. If you regularly eat authentic Mexican food, the food here is simply okay. It is not bad, but it is also not especially good. I ordered the combination plate with two tacos, one enchilada, rice, and beans. The other person ordered one enchilada, one taco, rice, and beans. Since we eat Mexican food frequently, we have a solid idea of what good Mexican food should taste like. The food here was decent enough to eat, but nothing memorable. One thing I did not appreciate was the pricing structure. The menu combinations appear one way at first, but if you choose a meat other than ground beef, there is an additional charge of one or two dollars depending on the item. The restaurant does disclose this, but only in fine print, so make sure to read carefully before ordering. Overall, I probably would not return because I know what genuinely good Mexican food tastes like. However, if you did not grow up eating Mexican food regularly, you may enjoy this place much more than I did. It may appeal more to people who are less familiar with authentic Mexican cuisine. Also, to be fair, I did not try the burritos, so those could potentially be better.

    One of my favorite spots when I'm in the area…read more I've came here a few times, each time is consistent with service and food. I'm also a sucker for a place that has a salsa bar (they also have beans, carrots and etc on the salsa bar) They have up close private parking The inside is very spacious with really big comfortable chairs. You can also see an open kitchen where they are cooking / cutting up the meat Each time I've came here, Lucy has taken care of us. -you walk up to the counter and order -they give you a number -then they call your number and you pick up your food. -Everything is self served. You get your own drink refills (I always get the fountain drink. But they do have other types) -you get your own napkins on the salsa bar -you get your own utensils on the salsa bar -you get your own salsa, beans and etc on the salsa bar -you seat yourself -you clean up after yourself and throw your food away and put your tray away I haven't had anything here that I did not like. I'm not a huge fan of chicken, but the chicken nachos are amazing. The chicken has such a good flavor to it The Birria is not overly salty like at a lot of places Service is friendly Ambiance is nice with really comfortable chairs and a ton of TVs Food portions and quality are great
