Delicious food with home made touch. My favorite: steak ranchero with fried eggs on top.

Food is always great, the service got 3 stars just because some of the waitresses are so great and others just never come back to your table after they serve the food and, that's what happened on this occasion. My cup of coffee was empty and even though I tried to call her attention she never made an effort to offer more. Also don't know how they wash their dishes but the first fork she gave me had food remains from the prior customer.

Chile Verde was great, they have my favorite beer here (Bohemia). They messed up girls order(no biggie she finished it)and our table was rocking quite a bit. Otherwise great spot.

First and last experience here! I get my food to go and as soon as I get home I realize my order is wrong and not only that but they overcharged me so I had to drive all the way back again and they had an attitude about it. Working in customer service isnt for everyone.

The menudo is my favorite out of all the food it has a distinguished notes of flavor impossible to recreate literally the meat falls off the bone by itself and the hand made tortillas are out of this world. Just a heads up tortillas seems to be only made on Saturdays and Sundays don’t forget to taste the delicious fresh cinnamon coffee ten out of ten in my books
