This place is great! The guy who runs it is very nice. I always like to try a variety of food when I find a new business. We got a picadillo gordita, barbacoa sope, quesabirria, and a barbacoa quesadilla.
The picadillo was by far the highlight for me. I really love picadillo and he did this one exactly right. I could probably just eat his picadillo straight out of a bowl, it's so good. I had it in a gordita today and that was fantastic. His gorditas are excellent. But I'd still eat that picadillo straight out of the container. lol
The sope was sooo good. It was puffy but crunchy around the edges and the pico, queso fresco, and and crema topping was on point, very fresh.
I loved the quesabirria but the consommé was a little thick and just a tad sweet, reminded me a little of an Italian tomato sauce. The rice had a seriously good flavor but it was a little undercooked. If it was softer, it would have been a great side to the quesabirria.
My boyfriend ate the quesadilla and he said it was probably the best quesadilla he's ever had. He would get it with chicken next time, the barbacoa was a little greasy in a quesadilla. Well cooked barbacoa is greasy, that's exactly how it should be, just turns out it shouldn't go in a quesadilla. lol
We had quite a few leftovers. lol His portion sizes are not small. The green sauce was incredible, but I could barely breathe at the end. lol I couldn't stop eating it, the flavor was so good. The red sauce was also good, less hot than the green sauce. If he made a milder green sauce, still with a little kick, I could drink it with a straw. He really knows flavor and spices.
I honestly cannot wait to go back. That picadillo is already calling me. read more
