First time been there..... only a mile from my location for months thinking I'll try it but to my disappointment it was not very likeable. Young lady didn't offer a welcome or any greeting only one couple leaving upon entering Took a seat with my daughter having skip meals to be dining tonight rather hungry. Ordered two drinks and had to repeat orders. Order one was wrong. My daughter had specifically ordered two beef fajitas with bell pepper only. That was wrong. And asked if I'd like to order it again without onions???!!? I was remarking that it was wrong and yes I stated. Another thing please serve fresh chips not served with salsa as I was to guess why.. and asked for an explanation but as the salsa bottles were delivered but no bowl and given a small container upon requesting it. Had to ask for my lemons again. Was brought limes and not told they only had limes. The final blow was mid way eating the female had over poured fragrance cleaner so badly it shot out of the restroom like a nuclear bomb. Not kidding. It was so strong I got up from being in the area and it made me sick. I did tell her that was way too much and ruined my stay. Mentioned it was my first visit and likely my last. She apologized but wanted to say it was over kill and have some common sense or something like that. I haven't been trying to comment on these things but I figured my money is my time and it's not good to throw money out the door. 😞

Small, quiet and quaint Mexican restaurant with food that tastes homemade, straight from a house kitchen rather than anything prepared in bulk. We polished off everything we could fit in our stomachs and savored every bite along the way. The carne / steak in the quesadilla was a little tough to chew but had so much flavor, no one minded in the least. Overall, the food was so good, the family didn't even mind the lack of soda fountain drinks... which is saying something with our crew. Update: The family already considered this a 5-star experience, but on our most recent visit, I tried the Tamalito Burger and don't want anything else. I hadn't had tamales on a hamburger before, but I can't imagine it always tastes as delicious as it did here. Every bite was glorious!

The food here is very good. I had Migas a la Mexicana for breakfast and came back for lunch. The food and flavors were great. They use the easy melt cheese which I prefer to cheddar less greasy on the food and plate. One disadvantage is that parking is tight and the inside is a little small. But the foof and flavors are huge. If you look at the photo of the tortillas. Well just an FYI those are homemade corn not flour. By looking at it I thought they brought me flour but no it was on fact corn tortillas. Very light and fluffy. I have dinned here multiple times. Looking for Mexican food try here your going to enjoy the food. If this help you please give it a thumbs-up.

Don't go here it's a bad experience with hidden up charges... Came here with a party of 9 the service was not good at all. The majority of the party ordered tacos and we waited about an hour and some for our food. A lot of the orders were either missing food or just incorrect. The waitress kept getting switched out and one waitress even laughed at one of us who was missing food when everyone els was already eating, saying "poor you" while laughing aloud walking away. Aside from that no food special was honored even after it was brought up to the same waitress. Her response was "that's just how it is, sorry". After we finished eating what we did have, we were "given" empanadas as what was thought to be a curtesy due to having a poor experience (so it was acknowledged) just to find out we were charged for that (we didn't ask for it/most us of did not want them). Even after we finished some of us were pushed to accept the food that never came to the table and instead have it to go while still being charged for the unwanted items. We all have understanding of working food service so we had patience knowing that sometimes things just get out of hand, it happens. In this case the service was just so bad and disrespectful/unorganized. Even one of the cooks stepped out to the front saying "Are these the guys" to a waitress right in front of us while making irritated facial expressions to us.

The restaurant looks cute and the green salsa is great.

Ps. If the responses to reviews are defense over resolution. That...

Love this place!. Very small and it just overall feels comfortable. The food is very good their country sausage is the best I’ve tried anywhere in a long while so meaty full of flavor and no fat. Also their enchiladas are so so good love that they use American cheese it’s way better creamier makes your food taste 100 times better and there’s no oil or grease everywhere.. Congrats to the management!.. don’t change a thing..👍🏼 Update!…🌠🌠 I went last weekend and totally new vibe I spoke to one of the waitresses and found out the original owner decided to rent it out so now it’s a new owner and boy is he tight or on a budget maybe?.. well to start ingredients not the quality it was before and the cheese they use now horrible that nasty yellow cheddar with a sour taste and removed creamers that they always had at the table now you have to ask..well sorry to say I will no longer be returning anymore.. and it’s sad to tell you the truth I loved it before maybe they’ll see this and go back to being amazing who knows. 🤷🏽‍♂️ but still ill no longer be a...
