Blend of nostalgia and simple cooked food... First went here almost 18 years ago. Went back recently with friends and family after a funeral. And our waitress was great for 25 of us. Food was solid. Margaritas were strong. Carne asada is our favorite and we enjoy the margaritas.

Hello everyone! My boyfriend and I came in to this establishment and right away we were seated and given drinks as well as chips and salsa. Our waitress was very kind and patient with all of my questions. You could tell that she was not fluent in English but she did her best and once we learned this my boyfriend began speaking to her in Spanish and she became so much more comfortable with us knowing it would be easier to communicate. We ordered chicken quesadillas, cheese enchilada with double rice, and a big asada burrito. When we asked for a more spicier salsa they happily brought us more and my boyfriend, a spice fanatic, loved it! We will definitely be coming back... coming around the early lunch hour is the best time to go we had the restaurant to ourselves for a good 20 minutes and it was very private! :)

The food was very delicious especially my pozole verde so yummy and huge. I took about 80% of it home and had it for a couple more servings. My husband really liked the menudo and it's huge too. He had the pata on the side. The chorizo plate was good too but they need to add more chorizo - the rice and beans took about most of the space in the plate. The service was great every time. The ambiance is just right, I liked the warm sun coming through the large windows they have there. They had Mexican songs playing and two TV's showing a football game. Their credit card went down at the time we were going to pay but luckily we had enough cash for the bill. Great food overall.
