A hidden gem – Mexican Halal food served with love. Generous portion sizes and good service. Tried the following items and loved them all:

I’ve never been able to eat non-vegetarian Mexican food, so I was excited to try it out here. Totally exceeded my expectations. Linda was so kind and gave great recommendations on what to order. And the food was SO GOOD!

I heard alot of good things about this Mexican restaurant so today was the day that I decided to see what the hype was about. I’ve been craving some goooood Mexican food and yes they did delivered!! I ordered the shrimp nachos and the portion size was more than enough. I was able to eat off of it twice and share. I also ordered a few deep fried jalapenos on the side

Im picky when it comes to mexican food…i got the wet burrito asada in red n green, i was a fan of both sauces so it was deff hard to eat of one side n stop eating when i was full fam ordered asada fries, tacos dorados, enchiladas michiocanas in cheese n chicken(fully topped) and a side order of the deep fried chiles with seasoning

This is my new favorite casual Mexican restaurant. Coming from a native southern Californian, that says a lot. We got there a couple hours before closing on Father’s Day. The girl who took our order was very friendly and helpful. She brought us complimentary chips and a Tex-Mex appetizer while we waited for the main plates.

Their ginger ale was refreshing but their Carne Asada taco plate was pretty disgusting. The meat wasn’t seasoned well at all. It was extremely flavorless and burnt. I won’t go back. Far too expensive for crappy food.

Good food at good prices. Takes about 15 mins for your order so I recommend calling in advance. The food is hot and fresh and the staff is friendly. I will definitely come back when I’m in the area!

Location is a hole in the wall place, kinda ghetto . Not a lot of parking either. Food though is halal and great! Customer service is also very good, the girl at the front is very helpful. Vegetarian friendly options too. I tried the California burrito, made it wet with half green and half red sauce. So tasty.

All my life I been looking for decent halal Mexican food. I finally found it and they were amazing. I strongly recommend the California burrito or the chimichangas.
