If you are in the mood for authentic, Chihuahua (Delicias-style) Mexican cuisine this is the spot. This family-owned restaurant is located in the South Valley, conveniently located off of the major streets Bridge and Isleta. The restaurant has ample parking. When you enter the restaurant, you receive a friendly greeting from the owners, place your order at the counter, and seat yourself where you choose. At the front there are two coolers where you can choose from an assortment of Mexican sodas in glass bottles. The restaurant dƩcor is vaquero-style (wood beams, horse silhouettes, horseshoes, old wooden wagon wheels, and antique ranch tools). The music playing overhead reminds me of that of classic-era Mexican movies. The dining area is large and can accommodate both small and large parties. As for the food, it was fresh and delicious. The portions were good size, but not overwhelming. The restaurant serves burritos, menudo, carnitas, enchiladas, chilaquiles, chicharrones, and much more. My husband and I came here for breakfast and tried the chicharrones and red chile cheese enchilada plates. You can opt to add an egg to your enchiladas if you wish. Both entrees were promptly served with sides of beans and Mexican rice. The chicharrones were light, fresh and crisp. The red chile of the enchiladas tastes homemade, like my mom makes from red chile pods. The owner is attentive and checks on you regularly to make sure you are enjoying your food and dining experience. We definitely did enjoy, and will be back to try some of their...

Ā Ā Ā Read moreStopped in because I heard I about the place on a food page. The post said they had some of the best chicharrones and it couldnāt have been more accurate. We walked in to place our order, and while we were waiting we were offered a chicharron to try. Me and my girlfriend ordered some and decided to dine in for breakfast. I had the Pork Chile verde and she got the Carnitas, both were just as expected and hit the spot. The atmosphere was so welcoming and nostalgic. I felt like I was inside of my abuelitas house watching old westerns and eating fresh tortillas. 10/10 recommended and will be a...
