Reviews
I was craving enchiladas and found this spot. This is a small family own restaurant that has been around for a long time I think. The owner made small conversations with his returning customers, and it was nice to see that. The place is a bit old and could use some updated ventilation. When they bring out their sizzling fajitas, the restaurant becomes smoky. It didn't bother me as much since I was ordering takeout out. He offered chips and salsa while I wait for the order. The salsa was spicier than I thought! It was good. The chicken enchiladas with the green sauce and the rice and refried beans hit the spot. It was exactly what I was craving for. I found my go to spot for this area when I get my enchiladas craving now.
Had the cheeseburger, fries and drink. The cheeseburger was so delicious and juicy. The bun was nice. It was soft and tasted, but got a little mushy, but I ate the burger anyway. Fries? Nothing special! I also ordered a kid's onion rings. It was just enough (5). The side salad looks delicious. I will enjoy it tomorrow for lunch. The drink is absolutely huge! I had my order delivered so I am unable to rate the ambiance. If you want a big juicy burger, Now you know where to go! It's definitely better than a fast food!!!! You can't go wrong with $9.99!!!
There was great service, everybody was so cheerful and nice. Also food was delicious and well presented. While you sit down and wait you can take a look at the cultural design and cool pictures. Perfect place if you want a good time and delicious food. My kids went in by themselves and they said they treated them so nice and took care of them. Would definitely go again.
My mom & I never agree on what's good Mexican, as she's so picky, but we have a winner! I saw a review about the beans not tasting like basic canned beans and I could not agree more. She got menudo and a pork tamale. I got the 2 enchilada plate. Omg SO. GOOD. I am struggling to stop eating despite being super full. Checked on Mom and (in between yummy noises) she said the menudo was delicious. Rice and beans we agree also, she said "delish." Service was good too. We were taking forever to decide what to eat and ended up being helped by three different people, since they had things to do - all of them kind and helpful.
Service was amazing they made a menu item they didn't have for me on the spot it was carne asada fries and it was amazing !!!! Loved everything about this place and they have an amazing horchata
