Ordered their menudo for the first time and pretty underwhelmed. Maybe Im just used to having menudo rojo but the taste was bland and not fatty at all. Honestly I feel like it was just chicken broth minus the arbol and guajillo chiles in it....Read More

Quesabirria, chicken tacos, and agua fresca (cucumber lime) were a great way to end a morning of fruit picking. Everything was delicious. You know the spot is going to be good when it's got a swarm of folks waiting for orders when you get there....Read More

The food is phenomenal just be aware that they recently moved locations (the new location is much nicer) they are in the same parking lot but in a different suite. I highly recommend their Quesabirria and grilled fish tacos.
