I recently got takeout from here and was so impressed! If you're looking for classic, old-school Mexican comfort food, this is the place. The prices are incredibly reasonable, and the portions are massive—I definitely had more than I could eat! I ordered the vegetarian bean burrito, cheese enchilada, and tostada, and everything tasted wonderfully authentic. My husband raved about his chicken burrito. The salsa was very flavorful and a great accompaniment to the meal. The only minor critique is that the food was a little too salty overall. Despite the saltiness, the great value, huge portions, and satisfying comfort food flavors make this a spot I highly recommend! We will be back for sure.

I came here for lunch. Their carnitas and rice were very good. I wasn't a fan of their beans. Their flan was delicious. I will definitely return.

Hadn't been back here in a while and nothing has changed. I prefer a more sophisticated approach to decor in a Mexican restaurant. This place hasn't spent a dime to refresh the ambiance and the murals are tired and dated. The food was good, portion sizes were plentiful and our server was attentive, even spotted him running from time to time. Not sure why they sat us upstairs when there were open tables below. The place needs a deep cleaning and a fresh coat of paint.

This place was great. The order was almost perfect but they put a few onions in my rice and I told him I was allergic. I didn't notice them until the middle of my meal. Also, not sure what was on the fries but it looks like it was cooked in old grease. The steak was cooked just right and the burger was kid-approved. Please take a chance and eat here. I hope you enjoy it like me.
