It is a small place, the parking sometimes is a pain, but the food is delicious!! Our staple dishes are the tacos dorados, costillas en salsa roja, and chorizo with a side of French fries. (Don't knock it!). Delicious homemade tortillas! I wish they sold sweet bread because their cinnamon coffee is DELICIOUS!! I go there so often I know all the employees and think they are the sweetest.

Hole-in-the-wall Mexican restaurant. Customer service could be worked on. My go to dish costillas con chile. Their hot sauce could be spicy to those who have low tolerance. You don't need to get up to ask for your check just don't expect anything in paper it's all verbal. It does happen where they do over charge. Double check your check. CASH ONLY!!!

Food is good handmade tortillas courteous staff great Authentic Mexican Food. Only one issue is they don't bring you a tab when dining in instead they just give you a random amount verbally and they usually overcharge . I questioned my total and she said oh I'm sorry I charged you 2 extra drinks! It's not the first time either!
