“By far one of the best Mexican kitchens in the city of Chicago! Hands down!”

“The butcher will sell you the cut of meat you desire just the way you like it. They sell most items you might need fir your meal preparation. Don't shop hungry. The wise decision is to start off with what is served up on the West side of the building, the Mexican favorites all prepared very well & don't forget to ask for HAND MADE TORTILLAS! They offer freshly squeezed orange juice. Menudo is served weekends only but Caldo de Reys is available everyday & other delicious soups & plates. OMG the Gorditas, fantastic selection. Enjoy your visit.”

“Overpriced old food they don’t make it fresh and their supposed medium is a small🧍🏽♀️and their gorditas are really small too and DONT GET THE BARBACOA it gave me food poisoning for 3 days”
