This is the best steak I've ever had!…read more The place looks very unassuming and at first I thought the recommendation was a joke. However, inside, it is very clean, has plenty of space, and smells delicious. I felt bad for the server as he was dealing with 12 of us, but he did a great job despite that. All of our steaks were cooked perfectly and drinks came quickly. All details were perfect. The steak is hands down the best steak I've ever had. Seasoned perfectly, cooked exactly medium rare, and a portion size that will leave you full no matter who you are. This place is a MUST VISIT in El Paso. Anytime I'm in town, this is where I will go.

This is…read moredefinitely a little hole in the wall restaurant with I remember like five tables in the inside and two on the outside. My mom actually took me here because she went with her coworkers and said that the tacos were delicious. We came in found a table and went up to the counter to order. They had a good selection of tacos and tortas, and I decided just to let my mom order for me. She ordered me the Tacos Asada and thankfully just a water because I was super dehydrated. Was tempted to order a Watermelon Agua Fresca because those are my favorites, but I really needed to hydrate, and little did I know that later that was the right decision. The order of tacos took forever to come out and normally this would not bother me because I do not mind waiting if the food is worth it. Unfortunately, what was disappointing was that four other people that came after me all got their orders before me, one of them included a group of five people. When the tacos did arrive they were delicious but against contenders like Fool's Gold and Tacos El Toro Bronco they did not match up. Although what helps step up their game is the salsa. Some of the hottest salsa I had at a restaurant in a while and that is what I loved the most. I love spicy food and this salsa was killing me, had to make sure to get another bottle of water because my mouth was dying of thirst from that salsa. We rushed out pretty quickly to get home because we were a little tired from the wait and chatting so much, but I have a feeling I will be headed back to see if I can buy the salsa.

Needed an ice cold beer and I found it here!…read more Anyways, aside from the ice cold beer the fact that the food was delicious was a definite plus! We ordered the flauta plate with the homemade queso sauce and they truly hit the spot. The cheese is scrumptious. The flautas were freshly made and had the perfect amount of crunch and meat filling. Yum yum. Now, my absolute favorite food item that we ordered was the Tripas Tacos, they were not overly fried to were they are too crunchy or undercooked and gummy. They were perfect and ohhh soo good! The salsa and chips were very good also. The salsa was flavorful but VERY SPICY, I couldn't stop eating it although my whole mouth was on fire! If you don't eat spicy food BEWARE! As far as service goes, our waitress was friendly and greeted us with a smile. She gave us a few item recommendations once we told her it was our first time eating there. Everything she recommended was on point. The atmosphere was ok, it was a relaxed and quiet, granted there were only two other customers when I visited. This place is a hidden gem, nestled inside a small neighborhood and next to a school. If it wasn't for Yelp I wouldn't have known this place existed even though it's been here for 50 years! Definitely give this place a try and enjoy a small piece of El Paso history.

So, funny/true story:…read more I tried to go to this place when I first moved to El Paso, but they were closed when they were listed as open, and then I completely forgot about them. (The old storefront back then is what is pictured below: the restaurant is now in a very new updated location.) Fast forward years later and I discover them again, and they are now my favorite carnitas in El Paso. Really consistent and tasty, sold in various quantities, including by weight. Pico de gallo is delicious as well. I have had and can recommend the carnitas, cueritos and barbacoa. I have not had the other meats or the desserts yet. The new location has a decent sized dining room for about 15 people or more, but they seem to do most of their business via delivery apps or pickup. Recommended!!!

The Quesabirria tacos were so satisfying. They were crunchy, flavor packed and had a bit of a kick to them. They came accompanied by a small/medium sized ramen which was also very flavorful. The Pepe Bol is my mom's favorite. She loves the flavor of the fideo which comes in a delicious broth that has some cheese in it. The rolled tacos are reminiscent of Chicos Tacos when it comes to flavor. The Caldo de Res was freshly made and had a generous amount of meat in it. The large bowl was way too much for me but would be perfect for the hungry men out there. It was mild in flavor so I did have to add some salt and some of their salsas to better suit my taste but it definitely killed my hangover. Definitely recommend. Each meal comes with a FREE small margarita for you to try, yeah, awesome. The menu is ample, prices are around $10 a plate but they are generous servings. They offer various alcoholic beverages and beers and do have specials. They also have a kids menu. The service was fast and friendly. The atmosphere was nice, music was playing and the decor is fun. If you are on the lookout for some good Mexican food, you'll find it here.

I've always been intimidated by the lack of parking and the long lines. Today I was heading back with hubby's car from the auto body shop in Canutillo and I saw there wasn't a wait at 10:00 a.m. I found parking in front and was surprised that the seating was outside. It makes sense once you get inside because every square inch is covered in sodas and goodies. Chicharrones piled up in the display cases, trotters, tamales, bunuelos, etc. The Mexican Cokes were the big ones 500ml from Mexico and only $2.60 each, the smaller normal size was $2, so no brainier to get the big ones. There were helpers that spoke English and they take credit cards, so even though the food is super traditional and it looks like a hole in the wall, don't be fooled..this is a well run modern operation. I got a half dozen because it was cheaper at $1.67/each than getting an individual one at $1.75/each. It's a wash after that, but people seemed to order a dozen at a time. The prices came out to be higher though than advertised with my tamales at $10.40 and that's before they added the tax. It's not much but it's a pet peeve when the prices aren't what's advertised. I'm not sure if that's a credit card fee because it seemed like the cash price as well. In any, case, I got half a dozen with 2 each of the Rojo w/Puerco, Verde w/Pollo, and Chile w/Queso. I also got 2 burritos at $3 a pop (barbacoa and chicharrones), 1 lb of chicharrone nubs, and 2 large Mexican Cokes came out to be after taxes $25.01. Not bad for a lot of food. The trio of which I shall now dub the Three Kings, because they were bursting with meat in the middle, was warm and moist. The Chile one spilled over so it looked like it was hollow, but trust me, it overflowed the edges and got messy. I don't know what the reviews are saying about the meat to masa ratio being small because definitely isn't. The only thing I would fault them for is not having a lot of flavor, it was sort of bland. I don't know. I only eat pasteles for Christmas and they eat it with ketchup. Am I supposed to have salsa on the tamales? The barbacoa was greasy. I think Los Primos is still my favorite barbacoa and it's down the street. The chicharron burrito was exceptionally good, one of the best flavored ones I've had, and honestly that's all I really eat when I order burritos here in El Paso so I've eaten a lot. Definitely go try it and enjoy a local legend and favorite. There's a whole lot of love, labor, and lard in each tamal. I really appreciate that I can get them easily all year round because of their hard work. Go out and support local!
