Menu is not specific. I ordered Quesadilla Gringa it is described as ” tortilla stuffed w cheese. Pastor.” All other meals that are described specify they have “chicken”. See on menu. I was shown menu and he said its says “al pastor that means chicken” and hands me the quesadillas w chicken back. Meanwhile I had ready said we wanted “cheese only quesadillas”. We got them fine. But. We weren’t checked on mid meal as all restaurants do… no asked if we wanted another drink other than water. The food is ok nothing crazy that you can’t make at home. I could buy all the goya already prepared ingredients and make the same meal. The quesadillas turned out too cheesy nothing special either.

Great tapas. Good eats. Friendly staff. Not easily visible to the public.

The service was great (especially during the pandemic), and the drinks were good. The food was certainly fine, but not especially flavorful. I would recommend this place to people who enjoy Mexican food but have a sensitive palette, but it might not be the right place if you eat a lot of Mexican.

The food and service is fantastic and the food is reasonably priced. I’m fortunate to live close by and have done take-out on occasion. As a soup person, I particularly love their chicken tortilla soup. Not salty, full of veggies and plenty of chicken served with sliced avocado and crisp tortilla strips.

Being from Mexico myself I can tell that this place has fantastic Mexican food!! The real deal and not the Tex-Mex version of our original Mexican cuisine. The service can use some improvement but I am confident that the owners will get it right with time. I recommend this place to the foodies that like to eat at a place that offers top notch quality!

So disappointed with this eatery last evening. We almost walked out halfway through our meal, something we have never done. The service was, at best, indifferent and the food quality poor….beginning with a comp bowl of stale tortilla chips. (When I remarked about this to our waitperson, we were basically told “they (the chips) are worse in the back” as if to say, “take it or leave it”…we left them.

I came here for a quick lunch, and ordered two tacos. The food was good, and the service was fast. Inexplicably, the entire place smelled like cheap cologne – I stopped noticing after a bit, but it was rather off-putting.

We went here for a work lunch and really enjoyed it. The margarita was great and the carne asada steak quesadilla was very tasty. I’m not one for guacamole but I actually liked theirs. They also made sure we had plenty of chips and salsa. Parking was a little tough but there was a parking lot nearby that was free and had plenty of spaces. Overall great experience.

Ordered delivery from here last night. So tasty!!! It came with a sweet hand written note, “thank you for supporting small business” in gorgeous handwriting. An artist must work there!

I think they just opened, so maybe they will improve with experience. Slow service, pork carnitas was very dried out, and the tacos just weren’t that tasty. I will try again in a few weeks.
