I have to say, Marco truly goes above and beyond. I hadn't been here in a few weeks, and we happened to visit on my birthday. He had no idea it was my special day, but he surprised us with dessert. When he found out it was my birthday, he came out singing and really made it a memorable occasion.

Chips with the best sauce

My fiancé and I went here today because we were hungry for burritos. It's very hard sometimes to find a good Mexican restaurant around here and this was such a surprise interior is small but it's done so nicely and it's so cute. The staff is incredibly friendly the menu pretty good size and let me tell you what we had. I had a I had a carnea asada burrito which was so delicious, my fiancé had the California burrito and let me tell you there's something that they do with the meat They just made it so unbelievably juicy and delicious. And while we were waiting, we had chips with this unbelievable sauce. I mean it wasn't spicy, but it was so delicious and it had such a rich taste. Our totals weren't really ridiculous for really amazing burritos you know so if you're looking for really good food go they do breakfast they do lunch. They do dinner go you won't be sorry.

Mexican to avoid. Atmosphere: Small shop menu is clear about 4 or 5 tables, nothing good or bad here. Staff: friendly & helpful everyone was very nice Price: prices are good $2.50 a taco probably one of the cheaper tacos in the area. Food we ordered: Chips: a smaller batch of chips covered in what i expect is a mole possibly and some cheese. This was pretty good nice crunch on the chips. came with two salsas a green and red both had a nice strong flavor and a bit of a kick. 3 Tacos Combo - Carnitas Taco - The best of the 3 tacos we got, strong lime flavor which i liked add some of both salsas and this is the thing to get. However my one pet-peeve with carnitas... If while you are adding carnitas to the taco and you see a LARGE piece of inedible fat DON'T PUT IT IN the taco... El Pastor Taco - The one recommended by the staff, strong flavor decent taste not my thing but also not bad. Chicken taco - this might possibly be one of the worst chicken tacos I have ever had.. No seasoning whatsoever the color was off i'm not sure they even put this on the grill.. absolutely avoid this at all costs. I wish I had photographed this one, it was that bad.. Rice & Beans - overall soggy and not very good, flavorless. Overall the food was not great. We went on a Friday after lunch so it wasn't busy. Im unsure if the food is just pre-made but nothing was really hot.. The food and the reviews on this place just dont match up... Not sure what people are eating but it isn't the food here.. Tips: Plenty of parking in the lot, the candys next to the soda machines are a nice touch.

Look at that meat quality!!!! Boom! Yes!

Onay, found IT. Here we go, the real deal, but with fresh ingredients. The owner is really nice and cares about his food, establishment, and customers. Plus, the food is AMAZING! This is now one of my top five places for authentic flavor and good quality in the Valley. I do have to take a moment and talk about the quality. Because the meat is exquisite, and everything that comes around it is like straight from the market. Free beans and cheese and sour cream when you show up on location is a fantastic addition to an already phenomenal place. PS they cater! One last recommendation... ask for the "lava" if you respect heat! I've searched everywhere, and everyone says they have fire, but no one ever brings the heat, but here they do!

Breakfast burrito and beef empanada

Food was excellent and a fair price. The bacon burrito was slightly under $10. I will definitely go back.

Special chefs dessert

Marco goes above and beyond ! We literally drive from Arizona to have this delicious food made with love .. been coming here for years and when we lived down the street they catered our special events and made everything perfect . This place is a gem and will always hold a special place in my families heart . Thank you Marco and team !

complimentary nachos and salsa

Would rate 4.5, bumped to 5 bc of service…read more Beautiful and aesthetically pleasing restaurant with even better service and palette of food. Came in last night to celebrate a friend's birthday (they have happy hour all day Mon-Wed) and was pleasantly surprised. My friends started off ordering the HH guava margaritas, which they enjoyed. I ordered the coconut margarita (not on HH) a must !!!! Not overwhelmingly sweet and tasty! We ordered and rated the following dishes: Guacamole: 9/10 HH tinga Nachos: 7.5/10 (flavor was there but most chips were burnt) HH Taquitos papas: 9/10 great flavor and sauce HH steak tacos: 7.5/10 the corn and portion of meat to the taco was very good. The steak a little well done for my liking. Enchiladas verde: 9/10 great portion honestly enough for two to share. Rice and beans were okay. Beans a bit salty and rice was a bit bland. Would definitely come back for the apps and drinks! They also have brunch which looks like fun.

I came here yesterday for a late lunch with a friend…read more It's a beautifully decorated restaurant. There are a lot of photo ops. It's definitely IG & TikTok friendly. When we got there, there was a DJ playing 80s/90s throwbacks. It was good music and vibes, but it was quite loud, we could barely hear ourselves speak. Luckily he wasn't there too long, as brunch-time was over. We ordered Mango margaritas, chips & salsa, birria tacos, tinga taquitos, elote, and chicken enchiladas with green sauce. Every single thing was delicious. I was highly impressed. This place will definitely be in the rotation. If I didn't live so far away, I would go for happy hour.

Make sure to check in through Yelp to save your spot! I always do this and never have any issues…read morewhen I arrive. The tableside guacamole is the best, and the Cadillac margarita and molcajete are must-orders every time I visit. The service is always great, and you can tell the staff works hard to keep everything running smoothly. The atmosphere is lively and busy, especially during peak hours, so be prepared for a crowd and possibly sharing a little space with new people. Overall, the food, drinks, and service keep me coming back!

I came here about 10 years ago and didn't understand the hype back then. Decided to give it another…read moretry recently, and unfortunately, I still don't understand the hype. The food was honestly terrible. Nothing we ordered tasted good, with the exception of maybe the chips and salsa. The shrimp taco tasted burnt, and the tortilla looked and tasted store bought and was served cold. The service was just as disappointing. We were a party of five and honestly not a needy table at all, yet we could barely get water refills and were met with a lot of attitude when we did ask for something. Parking is another headache. There's practically no parking, and having to pay $10 for valet on top of an already disappointing dining experience is ridiculous. Between the food, service, and parking situation, it really felt like they were more interested in taking your money than providing a good experience. I'm glad they're still in business after all these years, but I genuinely don't understand how or why this place continues to get so much hype when there are plenty of other Mexican restaurants in Los Angeles.
