Flavorful food you go back for. Stumbled upon it with a full parking lot of patrons and came back after running my errands. To sample the food I ordered a burrito with two types of proteins. While waiting I ordered quesadillas for tomorrow! Good choices! Good...Read More

I ordered tacos and menudo. The tacos were fine. I saved the menudo for the next day. I had a whole cow’s hoof in my soup. I’ll never eat here again. To serve soup this way was purposeful and inappropriate. I’ve had menudo many times...Read More

Really good tasting. Got the michoacano burrito and michoacanos enchilados. Very affordable. You order yourself from the counter and there are no servers. Not the coziest atmosphere, but acceptable.
