It was Ok. The steak was delicious. Chicken was dry. The noodle soup in broth was tasty. Tortillas were burnt and hard to chew—corn at that. Beans were interesting but seemed blended into mush but it was my first experience with this cuisine so it could have been how they’re traditionally cooked. I wouldn’t recommend what we ordered. I may give another try ONE day but slim chance

Great recommendations and awesome flavors. If you like authentic, this is the place. This is location 2 of 3. Little family place where it’s about doin what they love. Our friend tells me she has known the family for years.

The food of this place is good but unfortunately after my son ate a chicken soup from there he got a terrible diarrhea. We had to take him to the pediatrician and he was diagnosed with rotaviris. Apparently, the person who was handling his food did not wash his/ her hands after using the bathroom. Is sad because the food is good but sanitation is important. This restaurant is not clean.

We have been waiting for this restaurant to open to have a more diverse choice of where to eat. The place has been completely renovated. The food was tasty and fresh and the portions were plentiful. The staff was friendly and courteous. I would definitely recommend and will be back.
