I stopped in here on a whim while getting passport photos next door, just looking for a quick bite — and ended up having one of the best dining experiences I’ve had in a long time.
The service was absolutely wonderful. Hugo and Tino were so friendly and personable, they made me feel right at home. The food was incredibly fresh and full of flavor — you can tell they put real care into every dish.
What really touched me was when they offered me a sample of their fresh-made hibiscus juice. I’m from Tobago, where we make sorrel, and the flavor instantly reminded me of home. That small gesture made me feel so seen and special.
This is the kind of place where the food feeds your stomach, but the kindness feeds your soul. Highly recommend! Also, they were very good over the phone because I called first before coming over to ensure that they were vegan options and he went through the entire list of all the options...

I’ve been meaning to try this place for a while, and I’m so glad I finally did.

I ended up ordering the beef brisket burrito; what I got when I looked at home was brisket (with chunks of fat on the meat) tacos with nothing on them; only lime wedges, sliced cucumbers on the side and chicken noodle on the side as a sauce. Literally, they use the packaged dry chicken noodle packet and added it to the "brisket" sauce. $15 + tax; not worth.
P.S. this same exact spot used to be a Mexican place that went out of business. Tried it several times and their food was bad; as in canned,...
