Horrible service. We walked in and they said sit anywhere.. once we chose where we wanted to sit, they told us “oh not there” and had us move tables. Once we ordered they only checked on us once. The waitress offered crackers for our order then never brought them. I watched that same waitress drop off the wrong plate to the wrong table, then come back and take it from said table and give it to the correct person (food was already picked at.) Pésimo servicio.
Food was good, didn't get refills on any drinks due to our waiter not coming back. Also random people would come up to our table and try to sell honey/cakes.
This place is tucked away in the back of a strip mall. We were looking for a place that had sopes, and we ended up here. The interior of the place is nice, although there is a quite a bit of dust on some of the decorations. We got the the sopes (pork and carne asada) and the carne asada plate. My wife was lukewarm on the sopes, as they were a bit harder than she is used to. The carne asada plate was excellent and it came with a roasted jalepeno and fries. Best of all were the homemade corn tortillas. The waitstaff was friendly and the service was good. Overall, I would come back.
Good experience! Caldo de rez had one big potatoe and one big corn not much Vegis, lot a beef! Fried fish was missing the head which was the best part! Way deep fried as well as the fries. Refried beans were good as well as the rice. We tried to ask for more vegis but they said I’d have to order an entire new order. Atmosphere was perfect, cantina style playing Spanish music / Salsa!🕺🏿💃🏽
Fresh Mariscos! We were craving fresh and simple dinner. This didn’t disappoint. We split it, and basically took over half home. Great experience!
