“Stopped by in the morning for breakfast — what a great spot.”
Stopped by in the morning for breakfast — what a great spot! The place has a welcoming vibe with Mexican music playing softly in the background. I ordered a chicken burrito — nicely presented and pretty tasty. The salsa is homemade and full of flavor. Friendly staff and a cozy atmosphere. Definitely recommend it!

“Saw this place on Doordash with great reviews so we had to try it out, it did not disappoint!!”
Saw this place on Doordash with great reviews so we had to try it out, it did not disappoint!!! I got a carne en su jugo, and 2 whole chickens with rice and beans. The chicken is very well seasoned and is not dry, the sauces that come with it are really good too in comparison with other spots. We will definitely have to go try in person.

Went there with my mother today Great food So many options Chicken was tender and tasty The agua de guayaba was great! Bar area and drink options are fantastic The salsa that comes with the chips as an appetizer is good, however I wish their table salsa/Chiles were more spicy
