The restaurant is decorated like you're in someone's home in Mexico, it was so cute! It was very busy when we came in They don't have chips and salsa fyi - this joint is incredibly authentic Not a HUGE menu, but decent amount of choices which right away tells me they do what they do well if the menu isn't 8 pages haha We got quick service, there was one woman seating people, taking orders, and closing checks, and she did it well! My friend and I ordered soup (specifically carne en su jugo), which is my FAVORITE SOUP EVER, and I can't ever find it anywhere, and boy oh boy I will drive the 1.5 hours to get it again and again, it was perfect. They provide maximum of 2 ramekins of pickled carrots (cost if you want more, which were amazing) and 1 ramekin of green salsa (charge if you want more - and it's spicy but so good!) 3 crispy chicken tacos 1 mole with refried beans taquito (not rolled) 1 adobado pork sopa 1 adobado pork taco 2 chorizo tacos 1 hibiscus aqua fresca The restaurant doesn't have any music on, which I always appreciate background noise in general, but my friend and I were talking so much and the place was busy I didn't notice too much We planned on meeting monthly in Centralia and will continue to go here to eat, check it out!!!

My cousin is a vegetarian so she had the nachos and I had the large enchilada 1/2 of it was chicken and the other half was beef. I never had an enchilada as one. It's usually two separate enchiladas which made my meal unique and different. It was super tasty. I asked for green sauce and there was no issue.

We ordered the steak quesadilla and it was hefty. The filling was thick and flavor was really good.

Spicy but addicting Portions was also pretty generous considering the price. It was around $12 but the quesadilla could easily feed 2 people considering how thick it was.

I've driven by this place many, many times, I wish I had stopped in much sooner. The prices are reasonable, the food is good and will fill you up. To my surprise the coffee cups are NOT wimpy sized like at most restaurants, and they keep them topped off too. The service was great, I had made an off-the-cuff comment to my lunch companion and told her how I never seem to get salsa hot enough for my tastes anywhere... the waitress heard this and on her own went and got some salsa with a little bit more kick to it and brought it to the table. It was good! This place hs that 'little extra' you never seem to get in the big chain restaurants. I had a good experience and WILL be going back. :) read more

If not, maybe skip the chips. The food itself is solid hot-plate Tex-Mex -- enchiladas, rice, beans, the usual suspects. Nothing life-changing, but it hits the spot if you're craving something cheesy and smothered. Prices are on the high end for what you get. In a town where $12-15 enchilada plates are everywhere, this place charges extra -- possibly for the privilege of wondering what the inside of the restaurant looks like while you eat lukewarm enchiladas out of a takeout box.
