    a beef sandwich on a plate
    Grant M.

    I will not use the word "authentic" because it has no meaning anyway. Just because I'm American doesn't mean everything I make is "authentic American". The family that runs Cemitas Tepeaca are from Puebla Mexico. If you know what kind of food they eat in Puebla then this is your place. A Cemita is a type of sandwich that originates in the Puebla area. Tepeaca is a town about 20 miles south of Puebla. So having said that don't go here for Burritos since Burritos are American food. Yes, they'll make you one because the white pasty folks keep requesting them. However, if you want to get a first hand experience of what Puebla is like have a Cemita which is their version of a Torta but on a sesame seed brioche roll. On occasion you may even convince them to make Chies en Nagoda for you which I highly recommend. If they had it all the time I'd be here once a week. You can count on there being Mole Poblano (Poblano, Puebla... get it?) being offered and several other dishes. This place is always quiet outside of a few kids running around and the TV running. I don't know how they stay in business but they seem to make it. I wish they had more dishes specific to Puebla and fewer specific to Texas to be honest. We have enough burritos shops already.

    Everything was fresh and made with love. We had the mole, burrito, and tacos. If we lived closer we'd be back often.

    In short Clean, bright, friendly family-style Mexican place…read more Full bar, plenty of TVs. In long I definitely miss the awesome Thai place that used to be here, but Luna offsets that nostalgia. They're doing a great job. There's a cool courtyard, with iron fencing and gating that seems to suit the Mexican decor even better than it did the previous tenant. There's a good-sized winding dining room indoors too. Brightly-colored paint, nice matching tables and chairs, some big screens probably tuned to the game. Service is right on point, cheerful and low-key, ready to make you feel right at home. You get a menu right away, water with chips and salsa in a minute or two. The drink menu isn't the main focus, but you get basic versions of most anything. I had a Luna Margarita with lots of fresh fruit in there--even had to clear the straw at one point. The chips and salsa are generic. Just pico and tomato sauce stirred up. Would be nice to see them make something in house, but not too many places do that (fewer than you might think). The carne seems to be the star of the show, and it was tasty. Ordered medium and came out closer to well, but still fully tender and juicy. Tortillas were fine, the roast corn and scallions were good, and the rice and beans held up their end of the bargain. Little bit of guac and fresca in the middle of the plate. They're working hard for your Mexican food dollar, and if you're anywhere nearby, they're easily worth a stop.

She took us to the back which featured a bar area and twinkling lights on the ceiling! Loved the plants and decors on the wall. Our server was so attentive and kind! Me and my girl friend's husband ordered the Mar Y Tierra, thinly cut steak with garlic shrimp and mushrooms on the slide with rice, refried beans, guacamole, pico de gallo and choice of corn or flour tortillas! The steak was my favorite -- so juicy, tender and flavorful! They have a great variety of drinks! I got the watermelon basil margarita. They also have Jarritos soda which, my girl friend tried the guava and it was good! You have to get here before peak or you may not get a parking spot. They do have parking at the back but I bet if it's a peak night, it'll be crowded. We will definitely be back next time!

    My bf's best friend's bf introduced us to this place and it's seriously a fantastic establishment!…read more I love the colorful interior inside, the art on the walls, especially of Frida, are really cool. They mainly have cute beverages, snacks, desserts and ice cream! It's actually one of the BEST here in Everett! We had the chicharron snack and this light dessert of churros with strawberries and whipped cream and it was so nice that it wasn't overly sweet! The esquites with tortilla chips is sooooo delicious! The mangonada is famous here. The agua frescas are something to try! Not overly sweet either and it really tastes like the real stuff, no sugar added -- I tried the watermelon and LOVED it, like real watermelon! My bf loved his pistachio ice cream and raves about it being the BEST pistachio ice cream! They really fill the cone up and it's only $5! They're all really nice and we cannot wait to come back!

The service is great, fast, attentive, and very welcoming. The snacks, fresh desserts, and ice cream are absolutely delicious. We ordered the esquite, fresas con crema, cóctel de frutas, dorilocos, and the concha nieve, all for just two people and we happily devoured every bite. Everything was fresh, flavorful, and so satisfying. We can't wait to come back again!
