They came with lettuce and cheese and he asked for pico de gallo on his as well. My daughter and I both got chicken quesadillas with added pico. They have a salsa bar where I was able to get us a couple to try on our dishes. The food was ready quickly and we took it outside to where my husband was at a picnic table with our two dogs. We ate outside on a lovely evening. I wish I had grabbed a fork before going outside. The dining room closed an hour before the posted closing time. So we could not get back in. The food was tasty and the salsas had wonderful heat. When we finished we disposed of our trash and left the tray on top of the trash can next to the door.

Used to be our go-to fast food place in town. However today when we ordered our fish tacos, they…read moreincreased their price seemingly overnight - from 3.25 a taco to 4.15 a taco.

The enchiladas consisted of small hard bits of meat scattered through a soupy mix of shredded cheese and watery red sauce. I understand that this restaurant has a storied past, and was previously a favorite stop for many former governors. But I fear those days are long past.

Yea, Yelp! Another…read morefantastic find in a kinda out of the way place for me and my party. CASH ONLY! before I forget. Adam is the perfect person to introduce one to his family's establishment. Explains everything for the newbies. Patient and erudite. Such poise in such a young person. It's a small dining area. Clearly a local fave. Phone was ringing off the hook. But many clearly knew their way around. A few ppl walked in, placed their order and said they'd be back at such and such a time. There's only a small kitchen We got to mean Domenic, our cook A sweetheart and a skilled chef. The food itself seems straightforward and pretty simple, but each dish had its own flavor which I think is pretty hard to do and each was so satisfyingly delicious. I think I would've bn satisfied with just the menudo and the half order of nachos, but didn't know it at the time we ordered so we went on and got the El Faro burger, my friend ordered the cheese enchiladas and of course we got the chile Christmas on the side. Fantastic! And a tremendous value. We were quite shocked that our entire meal, including 2 sodas came to less that $40, such that we left double that bc these small businesses are such treasures and we want such places to remain in business. Seemed there were quite a few locals but also lots of travelers coming through. I certainly plan to be back soon!

The appearance and atmosphere is almost identical to Val's. If you liked Val's you will be happy to know they seem to have kept the best of Val's. I had the Taco Plate as I almost always did at Val's and, with the exception of the chips and salsa, it was just as good as Val's. Unfortunately, they have gone with the traditional chips found in most Mexican restaurants instead of the extra thick and crunchy ones Val's was known for. Definitely want to get over and try their breakfast.
