There wasnt a long wait time for a waitress to come by our table once we were ready to order, so service was good :) and the wait time for our food to be ready was surprisingly short

Can’t really go wrong with a giant plate of chilaquiles under $10 before 10 am. Though it did give me the bubble guts 🙈 This place has been one of my friend’s mother’s go-to spots for years and I can understand why. Everyone at the table massacred their plates, including me, until I literally couldn’t anymore. The portion is just so huge. Our server, I forgot her name, was very lovely and attentive.

One of my favorite neighborhood spots. Excellent food. And portions. My favorite is the Seven Sea soup. It's used to be bigger and Spicer but still good.

The food was good for the price and portion, loved that the tortillas were made fresh by hand. The rice was okay and they could do with better more flavorful salsas. Enjoyed the music from the guitarist that was there and our waitress was nice and attentive.
