“Wooow. Better than some places IN Mexico and one of the best authentic in the US. Fantastic taste.”

“Update 5/2/2026: I’m very glad to see that they have done something about the child solicitation. Eating here is finally enjoyable again! I would recommend the burrito suizo of cabeza or lengua! The steak plates are also extremely tasty! Update 8/31/2024: I used to love this place, but Im beginning to get tired of the kids soliciting and selling chocolates while Im trying to enjoy my meal. Instead, Im being guilt tripped. I wish the establishment would do something about this. Also side note, why are the parents of these kids having them do this type of work? Shame on the parents. Original Rating: 5 stars”

“Amazing. I love a soft burrito with plenty of steak. That’s what they gave. Horchata was so good. Also gave extra rice veggies and tortillas 🙏”

“Beautiful place dressed for Christmas, love that they get festive. Food is always delish! I think their best taco is the Al Pastor😋😋”

“So I order a Chorizo Gordita and they burn the chorizo. And it was not cheap. Normally they are good. But I guess it depends who is working and if they care. SMH.”

“Place takes up to an hour to get the food ready I meet a guy too that was getting angry 😡 at the time I arrived I didn’t know why he was angry but one hour later I realized why also try asking them they ignore you. Also what’s up with the plastic melting on my burrito 🌯 I feel that this is unhealthy might need to contact the city health department about this.”
“Muuuy rica la comida, excelente sabor, la gente muy amable. La mejor sopa Azteca que he comido en años!”
