We got there at noon and i don't know what time it opens but they only had pork skins in green sauce (stew) and fideo soup for the comida corida thats why we went there. They kinda took long to get us our food. It was really good once we got our food and they got handmade tortillas. Service was good. Great salsa. Their sala taste like it was roasted and hot.

Well, this was "my" first visit here and I'd come along with my cousin who'd been here before. The place was quiet but clean. We ordered 6 soft shelled steak tacos and they were delicious. 2 different types of sauces came with our order. Meat was tasty and tender. Everything was freshly made. The customer service was superb. I can't wait to go back and when I do I'm gonna have some Cilantro sprinkled on top.
