Went on Thursday night and very welcoming place . Since it was our first time she made recommendations. Very clean and food was spot on . Will be coming back . Only thing they could change would be turn music down just a bit .

Food was excellent, the quesabirria tacos and consommé very tasty. Service was good, not super busy on a Sunday at 1130am but I imagine that this would change with lunch crowds. Ambiance was good, music not too loud... over all a very tasty restaurant!

Always passed by thinking it was only a tamale place. They have some great tasting food and they have a lot of drinks. They have great servers and great music playing. Service is great. The agua de horchata is very delicious. The large queso birria is huge and good price. The flavor is so good with a great consume. The torta cubana with milanesa de res is fire. You get the option of res or chicken milanesa and they don't cheap out on the meat. The huarache con madre is so good and the meat so delicious recommend. The salsas here are great and very tasty. My favorite one is the one that comes with chips but I wished they would give you more chips. The machete papacito you can get up to three meats. All the meats here are great and flavorful. Recommend this place probably one of the better tasting near by.

What an incredible find, it's a crime more people don't know about this place. We got a mailing that had an ad and it had pictures of dishes I had never heard of or seen before. We were excited to go, the service is stellar, very friendly and helpful. They asked if we wanted an explanation of the menu and went over things for us. They have the most impressive looking drink menu I have seen, we all got Michelada's...something I have always wanted to try. They have several versions all with different toppings, kinda like a Bloody Mary bar thing. I got the La Toxica which had a huge slice of pineapple and shrimp. The warm green table salsa was killer, very unique. After much deliberation we got a few things to share first was a Machete Papacito which is kinda like a very long thin quesadilla only with masa. They have a lot of different toppings. We got half Al pastor and half Cochinita Pibil which is shredded pork in achiote. It was amazing, where has this been all my life. We also got a Huaraches Titanic the special one the Con madre that had a ton of toppings, including thin grilled beef, cactus and a bunch of other things that I cant even remember. It's a little like a big sopes, a really big one. I have never seen or eaten mexican food like this, it was a such a great experience, we have plans to take so many people we know here. The food was impressive looking and tasted even better. I hope we can get them so popular that they start a chain, its different but very approachable.

We were looking for a new restaurant, we have never been here and it is close to home... so here we are. The restaurant is beautifully decorated for Valentine's Day... balloons and table arrangements. There is Spanish music playing softly in the background. There is a large tv near the bar area when you first walk in. The waitress let us pick our table and gave us menus to look at along with complementary chips and salsa. The chips are sprinkled with a red powder and the salsa is a green chunky blend... so yummy! She put three different bottled sauces on our table too (see photos) the menu has lots of great options! Something for everyone... kids section too. I ordered the Pozole soup! Oh boy the soup very filling and flavorful. The temperature is just right. The meat is very tender and the beans are nice and chewy (Not hard or soft). This is the best Pozole I have ever had. I will definitely order it again. It came with a stack of crispy corn tostadas, onions, lettuce, and slices of limes! So so yummy! My husband ordered the Fajita Texana (a burrito with steak, chicken, and shrimp) he said the Fajita Texana was very good with all the vegetables and meats mixed together. It marinated well and made the flavor really stand out. We highly recommend dining here and will definitely come back again!

The service was awesome. The food was delicious and tasty, the portions and pricing were great. Ambiance was good, nice welcoming atmosphere. I came to celebrate my birthday and even that we came an hour prior closing the gave us an amazing service.
