Genuinely friendly and made us feel welcome from the moment we walked in. They start you off with complimentary chips, salsa, AND a bean dip--and I'll be honest, I'm usually not a bean dip person, but this one actually won me over. So good! I ordered the Chipotle Scramble with Hash Browns and wow--those hash browns were perfectly fried, crispy on the outside, tender inside. Absolute perfection. My husband got the Burrito De La Casa and couldn't stop raving about it. Fresh ingredients, great flavor, and no unnecessary fillers--just honest, delicious food.

We will definitely be back.

Just tortilla chips in a little bag and salsa for the chips that's it. She was very rude. Horrible customer service. This was a middle-aged lady (on the older side) We used to go there a while ago, and it was really good. We used to get huarache done the right way with fresh meat a good amount of cheese, lettuce, and avocado. This time we got a plane one with old crusty meat, Whoever said this is the best hole in the wall is not being honest they used to be good, now they are overpriced bad quality and customer service is awful. they lost a customer. plus this place is rundown they need to redo and update the Restaurant! Spanish version: Horrible!! No pierdas tu tiempo y dinero, mi marido pidió un huarache de carne asada y quería lechuga, aguacate y salsa verde para llevar, la señora que estaba tomando los pedidos en la caja registradora le preguntó si quería un huarache vegetariano... él dijo que no, ella tomó su pedido y él consiguió un huarache con frijoles, muy poco queso y carne asada seca que estaba picada... ¡sin lechuga, sin aguacate, sin salsa verde! Solo chips de tortilla en una bolsa pequeña y salsa para Los chips, eso es todo. Ella fue muy grosera. Horrible servicio al cliente. Esta era una señora de mediana edad, quien dijo que este es el mejor agujero en la pared no está siendo honesto, estaban buenos, ahora son demasiado caros, de mala calidad y el servicio al cliente es horrible. Perdieron a un cliente. Además, el restaurante parece viejo y desventado. Necesitan rehacer el restaurante!

To my surprise, it's definitely worth going in. As you walk in, they have a smoothie/fresh drinks area. On the left side, they have the ordering window. Since being my first time there, I ordered several items. We ended up ordering menudo which was tasty and not fatty. It came with a side plate of spices (oregano, chile de arbol), sliced lemons, chopped onions, and cilantro. The chicken taquitos dorados (a la carte) were flavorful, tasty, and moist. There were also a bit larger than other locations. They were served on a bed of lettuce, half guacamole and half sour cream, and some cheese. Ordered Chilaquiles (verdes - choice of green or red). It came with rice, beans topped with shredded cheese, and 2 eggs (choice of over easy). It's a small place that feels like home away from home cooked meals. Overall, definitely coming back.

One star off because you do have to get a key to go to a bathroom that is outside, but I lucked out and one of their extremely personable employees happened to be walking out on their break and let me in with a key. Bathrooms were clean as could be. Definitely worth the price. You can see the locals all know what's up. It wasn't packed, but definitely a-buzz at dinner time on a Saturday.

One meal can easily be split between multiple people. My favorites are the green enchiladas and the spicy chipotle burrito, and the rice and beans are just as flavorful and delicious as the main entrees. Upon being seated, you are served a spicy and cheesy bean dip with fresh chips, and there is a salsa bar inside where you can fill up on your choice of salsas. I sat in the outside patio area in my most recent visit, and while the quality of the food didn't change, the service was not the greatest; my table and a couple of other tables had a difficult time flagging anyone down for refills, to go containers, or the bill. There's also a pretty big price difference between paying with card and paying with cash; multiple menu items were at least 3-4 dollars more if you plan to pay with card. Still, the food is good and if you're craving some hearty and comforting Mexican food, S&B is a good option.

The menus need replacing the laminate is peeling off. The food portion though it was plentiful I do feel like the salsa's that were provided were most hot. You have patrons who can't have hot/spicy.

The driveway into…read morethe place could be a little confusing since you could enter through Roscoe (by the 7-11), around the corner off of Wilbur, but there is another drive way that has been closed off which leads there the Plaza Signage is located. I had this location saved as one of the local mom and pop restaurants that I wanted to visit since I truly enjoy local small family restaurants. No table service, but able to order at the counter towards the back of the restaurant. Once the food was served, great customer service. The young lady kept checking in on us if we needed anything else. We ordered Menudo which was a little more oily than normal, a bit bland. The meat was fatty, no hominy, and about half of the bowl had meat. Served corn tortillas and with side of cilantro, onions, chile de arbol, lime, and oregano. Also ordered a combo of Chile Colorado with rice and beans. The beef was tender, tasty rice, but the beans tasted like from a can (not homemade), and 4 corn tortillas. 2 large drinks (size of cup were the almost the size of napkin holder - A+). Overall, it was ok.

Of course I had to order the 2 tamale combo plate. I went with the Chicken Verde and Pork Chile California. First off... these tamales are HUGE. I couldn't even finish everything! The masa was super soft and moist, not dry at all, and they packed each tamale with a generous amount of meat. The salsa on the side added the perfect extra flavor too. The beans and rice were honestly so good, those were the first things I finished. Everything tasted homemade, like a true comforting home-cooked meal. Definitely recommend trying the tamales if you stop by!

I like ordering #2 because you get to choose 2 tamales from the menu. The Sweet Corn was good, but I was surprised to find that it was too sweet for my taste.
