Absolutely delicious! After trying so hard to find a good Mexican restaurant in Alamogordo, we finally found one! The food was flavorful and delicious. My sister loved the albóndigas, it came with plenty of meatballs and veggies. The menudo had great flavor, clean and a good ratio of meat and hominy. The caldo de res was packed with veggies and meat and the meat was extremely tender. The tacos al pastor (street tacos) were absolutely delicious, they are probably my favorite item. I will be ordering them again and again. This place also serves homemade, refreshing Aguas Frescas: horchata, jamaica, melón, watermelon, and mango. They also serve beer, a handful of bottled selection. The prices are decent, the portions good, and the service was friendly and attentive. If you’re looking for Mexican food, honestly, try this place out!

We were just passing through and decided to stop here last minute. And WOW we were so impressed. If I ever come back I’m definitely getting the street tacos that my boyfriend got. Don’t get my wrong, the taco salad was delicious and well prepared, but the tacos, especially the Al pastor in my opinion, were phenomenal! And mmmm the churros were also perfect. But this visit was really made by the incredible staff. We came in 30 minutes before they closed, half expecting to get turned away, but ready to eat fast. Every single person from the host, to our incredibly sweet server, to every passing server, cook or busser, was beyond kind and friendly. They treated us like we were family. Absolutely love this place.

I had the flauta combo ( 4 flautas with beans and rice). Meat was super dry and overcooked. Added enough guac and sour cream to make it palatable. My son had the 5 street tacos with Carne asada. These were really good!! Meat had good flavor and had just the right amount of onion and cilantro. Lastly, we had the tamale/ relleno combo. Tamale was moist, and red sauce was good but nothing special. Relleno was good too. Overall, was an OK experience. Total bill was close to $60 ( had to pay for chips and salsa...) with only water for drinks, so a bit spendy for the flavor.
