Great food and atmosphere. A casual Mexican restaurant fairly priced and with tasty options. Be aware that they don’t have tequila, margaritas and other drinks are made with agave wine. All the rest was great!

A friend of mine who grew up in Pasadena brought me here. 5 star all around. We all ordered the same burrito mojado and it was delicious. If I had to knick pick the Carne asada quality, was a 4 star. The service was top notch, and all our food was out in less than ten minutes. Would recommend to anyone and would eat again.

Neighborhood restaurant with friendly services, reasonable priced. Small but very cozy interior, charming without being tacky. Server are friendly and attentive, it was a very pleasant experience for us. Street Tacos are my favorite, you cannot best the $1.75 price. Good eats!

This place is a hit or miss depending on who’s working. Tonight I went to get food after attempting to give them another shot because they are close to my house they got my order wrong, so they had the cooks remake my food, they rushed and as you can see the cheese isn’t even melted and the beans were so bland no flavor at all. Their sauce is A1 tho and makes everything taste so much better

The place was cute. The service was polite and food came out quickly. A little too quickly it seems like they may not season all parts of the food but salsa was delicious. Oh and they didn’t have tequila only agave wine ‍♀️
