What an amazing little spot. The atmosphere is perfect. It’s set in a really nice downtown area with lots of places to walk to. The service was excellent. The gentleman with the mustache was on top of it. Food was ready almost instantly and the flavor was on point! If you’re looking for a good quality Mexican restaurant I highly recommend it!

We were so disappointed by this lil restaurant. The place is shabby and cute, but the place didn’t smell great. That should have been our cue to leave. The food was average, and nothing stood out for us. We will not be back 🙁

Ordered no meat breakfast burritos. The man who took order on phone was very nice, he offered to swap the meat with vegetables. Our burritos were full of onions, peppers, tomatoes, potatoes, beans, egg and cheese. Salas were delicious. Thank you for making a no meat option!

I smelled a delicious aroma of beef steak as I was walking up Dana St to Castro St in Mountain View. My friend and I went there for lunch and sat outside. My friend said their tamales were the best she’d ever eaten. I had the birria tacos and hard taco both were incredibly delicious. The service was great and the birria was the servers suggestion.
