My experience here was great here. I’ve bought many belts and boots here. I speak Spanish and I brought my English speaking friend and they were so nice to her. They were patient and let her try on as many boots and pants as she needed until she got the perfect ones. I also had the same experience and was here for hours until I finally made a decision and got a great deal. I’d say this is the best and authentic store for Mexican apparel, shop here and get the best quality and price!
This was the second shop we tried, and the difference was astounding; Alejandro and Betty instantly made us feel at home. They were eager to assist us without being pushy, and patiently let us try several options before we settled on what we wanted. I would definitely look for reasons to shop here again. The vibe was wholesome and happy.
Love this store! Great customer service all around! I’ve been shopping here for many years, but this year especially, it has truly stood out. From folklórico outfits to traditional Mexican dresses and shirts and now preparing for my daughter’s quinceañera this store has had everything we’ve needed for every occasion. Alex has been incredibly helpful, always answering our questions and offering creative ideas for the men’s attire for the quince. His guidance and patience have made a big difference during what can be a stressful planning process. Also, Alma (mi tocalla) is so friendly and always greets everyone warmly as they walk in. She’s constantly looking for ways to help Alex and support around the store. The clothing and shoes are high quality, and you can tell they’re made to last. This definitely won’t be our last time shopping here. Thank you for making these special moments even more memorable!
From the moment I walked in, I was warmly greeted by the owners. Alejandro went above and beyond to help me find the perfect dress, boots, sandals, and belts for my children and partner. All of their products are authentic from Mexico, which I absolutely love. Alejandro was incredibly knowledgeable and patient, showing us so many different options and staying with us until we were completely happy with our choices. The attention to detail in his merchandise is truly impressive. The owners are so kind and amazing. I can’t recommend this place enough. I’ll definitely be coming back!
Absolutely loved this place! The selection of authentic Mexican crafts is amazing everything from hand painted pottery to beautiful textiles. You can tell everything is made with care and tradition. The betty and Alex were super friendly and helpful too. If you’re looking for something unique and cultural, this is the spot. Highly recommend!
