I always love having the chicken tamales as they are moist and tasty and uniquely wrapped in banna leaf which I feel gives it a unique flavor . I also have tried the mole which is above average tasting. It a nice place to bring your family and friends to eat. The rice was ok, I have a sifferenr flavor profile preference for my rice and that is why I said it was just ok.

There was cute artwork on the walls depicting different Hispanic foods all done by the same artist. This was honestly some of the best Mexican food I've had and you get a large portion for the cost. We ordered several items a la carte to just try different things and the tamale was huge and so delicious! The steak tacos were juicy which seems to be hard to do for other restaurants. My husband who loves to try lengua tacos wherever we go said these were some of the best he's ever had! We had a Gordita which was also large and the sauce that came with it was spicy and very tasty. We will definitely be back!

The people were friendly and explained that they just opened days ago and would add a menu and other items as they get up to speed. I figured that I would do lunch somewhere else and get some tacos for later since I was already there. I ordered a steak taco, Al pastor taco and a carnitas taco with cilantro/onion on corn tortillas. All the meats were tasty with the steak being seasoned nicely. All the tacos were good on my visit.

Driving by I noticed that my favorite breakfast taco and tamale place that closed was now another…read moreMexican restaurant so I stopped over for lunch today. Th restaurant is the same with a small waiting area with an order window. The menu is much more different from the last place because it's big with the addition of American food like cheeseburgers and cheese steaks etc. The burrito dinner sounded good and for $9.99 you get choice of meat, rice, beans and a can of soda and I chose sprite. I ordered the steak burrito dinner which didn't take long and I was on my way. The rice and beans were super average and I did my usual and mixed them together and topped with hot sauce and then they were good. The steak burrito was tasty with cilantro and onions in it which is great because I forgot to ask for that. The steak burrito had a hint of garlic which I liked but I couldn't tell where it was coming from because the burrito had a sauce in it that was dripping out of the bottom so I don't know if it was in the steak or the sauce. The steak had the perfect texture and not to soft like some places but with enough chew so you know that it was steak. overall I enjoyed my steak burrito lunch and I would stop back for more of the menu to try and the menu looks very reasonable.

This family owned establishment is a must try. Located right in Historic Mitchell Street, you can't…read moremiss it even if you tried. We dropped in for tacos as that's the most spoken thing and chose to dine in. It's very small but you don't need much room to grab a seat. There's also outside seating available in the summer time and it serves the same purpose seeing as there's table service. We were greeted immediately, given menus and someone was instantly waiting to take our order. I gave the steak taco, Al pastor and chorizo taco a try. One of each to ensure I got a well rounded opinion. Our tacos were served within 10 minutes on plates and you're given two salsas and a pepper mix. I'm not sure what's it called but it's a mixture of onions habanero peppers and cucumbers. Definitely adds an extra kick to your taco but trust the tacos don't need it. All of them were juicy and tender. The pineapple on the Al pastor was the best. That has to be my top fave of all three tacos. I highly recommend anyone to stop by this gem and try it.

I have driven past this place so many times and I have eaten in the neighborhood restaurant and…read moretrucks so I'm cashing in my bookmark today for the local restaurant to support. The dining room is closed so the side window with the small seating area is all you can do with the virus. I ordered two tacos one steak and one Al pastor with a side of beans. The food was ready in like four minutes and I was on my way. The tacos looked good and the beans were in a styrofoam container and a big side of beans it was. The beans were the thick/smooth style topped with cheese and I would say just average so nothing special. I tasted the steak and Al pastor by them self to taste the meat before I put hot sauce on the tacos so I could see which one was better because one always is but not this time because they were both good. The steak taco with cilantro and onions was very good with seasoned steak and the corn tortillas stood out because they had a good corn flavor. The Al pastor was the same but with tasty pork. This is definitely a good place for tasty tacos and I would definitely stop back for more of the menu.

This tiny, assuming place in West Allis is serving up some delicious food. Now - know these things:…read more 1. Clean, very simple interior. Probably most ppl get to gos? No alcohol but plenty of soda choices. 2. Everything is homemade, including tortillas. That means you're going to wait a bit. 3. Portions - huge. Prices -reasonable. Speaking of prices, there aren't any posted on the menu so ok? 4. They may or may not have the meats posted on the board. If you're cool with the above you'll be well rewarded. Salsa is fresh, served in generous portions and richly flavored. The red tomatillo was my favorite but they were all great. Let me repeat - THE SALSAS ARE G-D AMAZING. I had tacos, mister had a (ginormous) burrito. Again, so flavorful! Rice and beans are generally a throwaway but not here - beans still have textured, rice is actually seasoned and not mushy. It's a quirky little place that delivers great food. Check 'em out.

At 8:30 on a Saturday morning it was packed and take out only. I would get the carnitas torta and the full blown menudo. My carnitas torta was good with added cilantro and onions on a fresh baked roll. The menudo was a small but it could feed 2 to 3 people with a delicious broth and plenty of tripe, it's expensive but probably the best meatiest menudo I have ever had @ $25 for a small. Overall if you want a traditional good menudo this is the place to go and carnitas chopped on the spot and wrapped in paper like a old school butcher shop then stop by.

If you're lucky one of the bilingual youngsters will be there to help with your order. This is the real deal, folks. The tastiest, freshest pork in Milwaukee. Try the carnitas, wash it down with a Tecate or Modelo taken from the 50's-era soda cooler. The locals gather here to talk and eat. You may end up sitting at a table with total strangers, but that's what this experience is all about. If you want a margarita, rice, and beans... move along. I've never seen any of those served here. You'll leave thinking you were actually in some little mom-and-pop joint in a sleepy town in Mexico. And that's what makes this place great. And the food.
