I came for lunch. This place has obviously not gotten the praise it deserves. The food was great and the service wasn't rushed nor was it too slow. Their salsa verde was so good, had just enough kick to not burn your mouth! The decor maybe a little outdated but it was pretty clean and orderly. They have some authentic decor, and the music was perfect. I am not Mexican but I think they would appreciate the atmosphere. The wait staff was really nice. Also with my check they handed me a flyer of some local events. What sense of community! Loved my experience. I would recommend coming here, for sure!

Trash!!!! Trash trash !!!!!
I completely stopped coming here years ago , but today decided to go in since it's been so long and literally by my job, I go in with my BF and he already seem d turned off by the lack of customers. There was only 2 Caucasian males one older one younger Literally only 2 patrons in the restaurant.
I knew it was a red flag when the lady server kept passing us not giving us any refills on water or salsa ! Kept going over to those gentlemen hmmmm. Seemingly a little racist ! check this my BF is Hispanic ! it gets more ridiculous.......
We were sitting there for 15 minutes staring at the lady and she clearly ignored us .... anywho We order I got the chimichanga and he got enchiladas. Simple right ? We waited 40 minutes for disappointment. The peas in the Spanish rice were all dried out the rice & the refried beans looked like they let it go in the broiler so dry yuck. My BF spit his out on the 1st bite.The chimichanga tasted like it was just frozen And dumped in the deep fryer! The cook and server are goofing off making jokes and talking about the warriors ! Like tf? This is why it took 40 minutes to make the most basic dishes because they're goofing off, we see an older black male come into the bar area mind you while all of this is going on NO ONE EVER WENT BACK TO CHECK ON HIM I HAD TO REMIND THEM AFTER I PUKED UP MY FOOD THAT HE WAS SITTING THERE !!!
I literally threw up after I took my 1st bite, I will NOT be eating here anymore. Stick to the margaritas and chips an salsa!! -

The bread wasn't my favorites eggs and bacon was good. Horchata was good.! The waitress was exceptionally friend. Great customer service. The food arrived fairly quickly.
They offer grub hub but couldn't find them on Grubhub.
Oh! They offer happy hours -

The best time to come is during happy hour. The portions for what you're paying is great! 6 taquitos for $6!
I love the staff there, they're always so nice and accommodating. I mentioned how much I love the hominy in the posole soup, and the waitress said that next time, I can ask for more hominy in the soup. The staff is super quick with your food too, and because they circulate a lot, you get the help you need right away. I've had a few of their other dishes, but I always keep coming back to the posole. -

Payed 6.57 for only one taco the meat was flavorless and the taco only comes with cilantro, your choice of meat, and onions. Service wasn't good either. Won't go back again
