We stumbled upon this lovely restaurant when we were super hungry and on the hunt for Desayunos. We came to discover that this restaurant is run by Octavio, his lovely wife, and his two daughters, whom are all so very friendly and welcoming.

We were originally thinking that for we'd have tacos or burritos, however the prices were VERY reasonable and the fresh caught tuna and a combination mixed skewer were recommended. Based on our experience with the delicious margaritas we went with his recommendations. We weren't disappointed.
The meals were cooked perfectly and didn't require any additional salt or flavoring. The small portion of pasta served with the meal was quite good. We may order one if the pasta dishes when we go there next time. And there will...
Read moreOff the beaten path, what you look for in a traditional local establishment. The mom is the cook and the flavors are traditional, her cooking is exceptional. Very friendly. Her daughters are there serving to ensure that your dining experience is everything you’d want it to be. Super fresh food, homemade, prices are extremely reasonable.
