Between my husband and I we had 3 different pupusas, bean & cheese, chicharron, and mixta, and I enjoyed all of them. I also had a plate with a green cheese enchilada and quesabirria (only for $15!) it was so delicious! I think the quesabirria was my fav tho there was so much flavor. We got two jarritos as well, I wish I tried the Platanos Fritos. We will def be back! The interior design was lovely as well, bright and colorful.

I didn't get our waiter's name, but he was very friendly, welcomed us and told us we could sit wherever we would like and he took our order. He was Very friendly, very playful, which we enjoyed very much talking to him during our order. I Had lunch with my coworker. I ordered the Chile Verde plate. The meat was very tender and the chili sauce that was in it was not spicy but had a good flavor. The beans and rice gave it a great touch cause they both had a really good flavor as well. It came with either corn or flour tortillas which I ordered the corn tortillas which were very soft and tasted homemade. I will definitely eat there again when I'm in town. But you will have to go there and eat to form your own opinion.

I love getting the 2 taco plate with Chile verde and carnitas and my husband gets shrimp or fish dishes. We also enjoy the freshly made complimentary chips and salsa.

Disappointed at how their hot food has declined in value over the years. Came in today for tacos de…read moretripa, asada, and barbacoa. All tacos were surprisingly bland? Why? Wondering if they've stopped seasoning their meat in order to cater to the demographic here in Atascadero.... Especially the carne asada I mean apart from having so much fatty meat, it had no flavor. The service is always great too, just a little disappointing. When I'm talking about flavor, especially for $4 a taco, I expect a hint of garlic, salt, pepper, lime, etc. I expect the meat to be marinated and flavorful. Maybe they already do that, given they do sell amazing carne preparada, but the hot food just hasn't been the same for the last 3-4 times I've gone. I like supporting local mexican businesses so I continue to go but today might've been my last. I don't think I'll be driving from Slo to Suprema Meat Market for their hot food again. The cold and prepared meats are of high quality though so this review is strictly for the hot food. I understand that they need to stay competitive with the market, but the total for 5 bite sized tacos was $22.... That's insane. For $4 a taco, I just expect more. I hope they review this and implement some change! I see that the owner reached out and I appreciate his response. Maybe I'll give it a try again.

I ordered 2 of the Taco Thursday special as I never order this one and not sure ... and oh ... you only have the 1 choice on Thursdays and not like Tuesdays where you have more choices of meats. Not impressed with this one as it was tough and chewy. Do not remember the name, unmemorable. After the first Taco I ordered a Chicken Enchilada. Arriving quickly she stayed the plate would be hot. Well ... the little kid in me has to touch. Was only between warm and hot. More patrons were arriving and I took a bite of the Enchilada at the end. Okay hot though from past experiences it usually is not hot in the middle. And I was right, between warm and hot but not hot enough. The kitchen was starting to get busy though don't RUSH the food just to get it out, only needed a few minutes more. The Enchilada Sauce was tasting the same as last time which is ??? Service was spotty though won't get into that one.
