Recommended by our friends and we stopped by after a hike. Great spot with service and food. Variety of choices of entrees and definitely recommend.

Great spot for some delicious authentic Mexican food!
They start you off with chips and salsa- so good!! We had to ask for a refill on the chips.
We went around brunch time so one dish we ordered was the chilaquiles in green sauce (mild) with scrambled eggs. The sauce was perfect for a kid who doesn't eat spicy and loves semi- crunchy chilaquiles.
Next dish, the enchiladas suizas with chicken. These are made with a flour tortilla and melted cheese.
Next, bean and cheese burrito was huge! See picture with a 12-year old hand for comparison. Nothing fancy but good flavors and hearty portion.
Lasty, the combo, one crunchy taco and one enchilada - both with chicken. Yum!
I also tried the champurrado which was very flavorful and got me feeling ready for the holiday season!

Great what appears to be a family run business. The food was delicious and the service fantastic. I ordered the cafe de olla (black coffee with piloncillo (Mexican brown sugar), and canela (cinnamon)). It was just okay, no real cinnamon taste and just okay.

I ordered the campechana, which was packed to the rim with shrimp, abalone, pulp (octopus), avocado, cucumber, and pico de gallo. My partner had the chilaquiles with steak and eggs. We asked for the green sauce but spicy. It had a nice flavor and a little spice, but it was great. The steak was delicious! So tender. He asked if instead of tortillas he could get toast. The young lady said sure, but did not disclose they would charge $2 for a piece of toast.

Overall, great place with great food and service. We will return.

Saw this place on Instagram so my family and I decided to try it out. Service was crap our waitress was mostly nice but still had an attitude when we asked questions about if there was any gluten in certain food items as my sister and niece are allergic and the other lady was extremely rude. They got our order wrong and still charged us for it. Food wasn’t exactly great either for most of us. Waste of time and money definitely will not be going back there again. The only positive review would be the chicken enchiladas were really good.

The food was spectacular!! We went there at 430pm on a Thursday. Great service too, we brought our kids and they even changed the channel to something more child friendly for them. I'll definitely be going back to try more, The quesobirria tacos were phenomenal!!!

Homemade Mexican Food ❤️🌯🌮🫔🥣❤️

Food: Home made food! You can really tell that the food is cooked fresh small. Food tastes fresh and order to cook. On certain days, some of their food items are only available on those specific days. I ordered the albondigas.... The meatballs were massive, the broth with savory, and the vegetables or fresh! They also have great enchiladas, posole, taco salad and great salsa. I also enjoy their carne asada.

Servic: Family-owned ❤️ friendly reception and attentive customer service every time I go. Usually the husband and wife are cooking and serving, and sometimes the daughters are there serving as well. Great hospitality.

Final Thought: a staple for any of those that are looking for great Mexican food with that homemade taste that other restaurants just don't provide! I love this place!
