I’m surprised I haven’t been here by now. This restaurant is so close to my girl’s place. Good food, good service, and good atmosphere. Definitely will be back.

Ordered the small menudo, and my hubby ordered the nopales con chile rojo, eggs, beans and potatoes. Food was great the staff just needs to be more confident when speaking, It honestly makes a difference.

The service and atmosphere was great. The place was super clean but unfortunately I didn’t like the crispy tacos. The shell was too hard and the meat was off. The toppings didn’t mend well and the enchilada was too gooey. I would go again I would just get something different but I still had a 5 starts experience for the price!

Worst $ 29.19 I’ve spent on breakfast. The breakfast tacos were dry, tasteless and the egg was overcooked. The flour tortilla was not homemade and had not flavor. The menudo lacked seasoning, the broth did not taste like your traditional menudo and the beef tripe was chewy and undercooked. The only reason for the 2 star and not 1 star is because of the good customer service at the front counter, but that’s not enough to come back again.

First time visiting this place.. ordered 3 fajita tacos and my parter ordered 2.. flour tortilla was okay but the amount of meat they put inside the tacos might as well had ordered half a taco.. they do not put enough food to even make it a taco… I had to literally put meat from one taco to another …will not visit this place ever again!!

I’m a regular and every time I go, it’s great food, great price, friendly service. I love taking people who haven’t been, and they always enjoy it as well. Casual dress, no rush service and quick service make this an easy place to eat. I’ve enjoyed breakfast there as well as lunch and dinner for years.

I ordered the beef and chicken fajitas with shrimp,grilled onions and mushrooms with melted cheese. It was awesome, the rice was a little plain but the charro beans had bacon in it . I could eat those beans every day.
