“a family favorite and regular go to. today the meal was exceptional and the horchata was a real treat. we've been coming here for years if not decades and will keep coming as the food is so fresh and the salsas are very flavorful and perfect spice levels. ♡wayne”
— Rachel Gurney“I've been here many times over the years for their tacos and burritos but never for breakfast. What a mistake. The best Mexican breakfast in town!! The Huevos Motoleños and the Huevos Rancheros were OMG”
— Delana Agnew“Solid food. We got the steak chimichanga and steak quesadilla. Nothing mind-blowing but tasty and satisfying. Chips are above average too. The bean dip was a standout and takes the food from 4 stars to 5. Will be back to explore more of the menu and to stray from the tortilla, meat, rice permutations.”
— John Rieser“This is a great spot to take the family or friends. They have a nice range of homemade salsa's but what really set's this place apart from the rest is their Al Pastor. Most places can't do it right but they nail it! Another indicator is their beans and rice and they do a good job of that too! Edit: 2021. It seems that there has been some minor changes to the dishes. It doesn't quite have the flavor it used to have but it is still a good go-to and the outdoor seating is nice in these times. They also had to shut down the salsa bar. You can get little plastic small servings of their salsa though. The owners are really nice people and support the community through donations and fundraisers. I will still take my family here whenever possible.”
