An overall very nice experience. The food tastes very nice, the staff is quiet yet friendly and timely. The atmosphere is very relaxed, a nice home cooked Mexican meal ready to be served vibe that brings me comfort when I arrive. Very underrated spot for Mexican food.
We were going to Cuquitas, but it eas closed, made a quick Google search and found Ernesto...did have high expectations, but it didn't disappoint. The server was great, greeted us right away, broght me nice hot coffee & took care of my somewhat demanding older companion with a smile. The suggestion of the Puntas Monterey was great!! The guacamole was delicious and fresh and the flan was on point!
I have been a fan of this restaurant for many years. The Margaritas are excellent. I absolutely love the tortilla soup and my go-to favorite dish is Puntas Monterey. The guacamole is always fresh and the seasoning in their food is perfect. Also, I would like to mention that the service and staff are always friendly.
We have visited several times and never left a review. This place has truly great authentic Mexican enchiladas, and the flautas are also really good. The food is consistently excellent.
The menudo is amazing! Reminds me of my Mama's. The lunch specials are a great deal and the food is really hearty and delicious. The service staff is friendly and definitely knows their regulars. Love this little mom and pop shop!

Authentic Mexican flavors served with heart, where every meal feels like home.
