I got a beer, 1/2 pound of wonderfully tasty carnitas with the optional Fear Factor package (stomach, skin) and some tortillas for about $13. I would have be a dick to not give it 5 stars.

Being from San Diego, where mexican food is plentiful and the quality of our Mexican is above standard… dining in and/or takeout was terrific, enjoyed the quality, quantity and flavor. Great experience, I’ll definitely make it a must stop when I’m in the area… great food!

WOW……It’s really hard to find authentic (Not Americanized) Mexican food in California and this place has it. The carnitas were juicy and flavorful along with an array of some of the most delicious salsa I have had in a while. It’s not very hard to make rice & beans but they were much more flavorful than most places. I highly recommend this place for people looking for authentic home style Mexican food at a very reasonable price.
