    Nice home-cooked Latin food. Mother and daughter duo serving things up. Nothing better to eat within that area, that's for sure.

    The moment my boyfriend and I took our first bite of our tamale's to-go, we realized we made a big…read moremistake. We realized that we should've gotten more tamales! This is coming from a born and bred Texas girl, and a spent-quite-some-time-in-Texas-guy (honorary Texan). We were also given an extra tamale (thank you)! We got chorizo & potato, chicken, and cheesesteak. So. Darn. Good. The maíze was so delish and fresh. We were too excited to eat so sadly don't have photos! They staff are so incredibly friendly :) Super super delicious, their salsas are SO delicious. Definitely super fresh, we had a handful of different arrangements of salsas. If you're not one to handle spice as well but still like flavor and a taaaad bit of kick, definitely get the tomatillo verde! The salsa fresca was my personal favorite, with the el sriracho (spiciest one) being a close second (they gave us one to try and it was so yum). Definitely not too spicy (but we can handle our spice), packed with a ton of flavor. Can't go wrong! It's really cute, nice that it sits in the little center with other options. Definitely come by :)

The girl who took my order seemed bored and not very friendly. She said it would take 10 mins, so I looked around the shop next door then came back. I took my tamale to go. Got to my room, opened it, and wasn't sure what I was looking at. Being Mexican, and having made and eaten tamales all my life, this was not what I would call a tamale! It was maybe the size of a roll of quarters! So I picked it up and unwrapped it and took a bite. And it kind of reminded me of those canned tamales you can buy. The masa had an odd flavor and was almost creamy, the meat was different in texture. The salsa was ok, not what I considered salsa. It was an ok snack, but I don't know if I'd call it a tamale. And I definitely won't go back.

    Came down for a work trip and this place was highly recommended. From the moment I walked in, I…read morefelt right at home. They were out of the G.O.A.T. when I arrived, but when I asked about it, they didn't hesitate for a second. They told me, "We'll make it for you - just give us 20 minutes." It was absolutely worth the wait. The G.O.A.T. was amazing, and the guava and cheese empanada was freshly made and just as incredible. If you're looking for authentic food, great service, and people who genuinely care about their customers, this is the place. Highly recommend! ------------------ Diablo, qué clase de comida. Todo estuvo bien brutal. Full recomendado. Vine por un viaje de trabajo y me recomendaron este lugar. Desde que entré me sentí como en casa. Cuando llegué, se les había acabado el G.O.A.T., pero cuando pregunté por el plato, sin pensarlo dos veces me dijeron: "Te lo hacemos, dame 20 minutos." Y déjame decirte que valió la pena la espera. Estuvo brutal. La empanada de guayaba y queso estaba recién hecha y también quedó espectacular. La comida, el servicio y el trato fueron de primera. Se nota que aquí cocinan con cariño y orgullo.

Meanwhile they also have many Empanada options, which were not as efficient to heat-up, so it delayed my order. They were, however, tasty! MOST IMPORTANTLY, they also have a great selection of fruit AND most importantly great, well-priced Acai Bowls!!!
