My sister suggested this local spot, so we came here for dinner on a Saturday early evening. It's a small, casual place. the service was good and the server was friendly.
Most places serve complimentary nachos, this spot gives Chicharrones de harina instead, which was a hit at our table. It was my first time tasting that, it's a popular Mexican snack made from wheat flour that's deep fried until it puffs up and becomes light and crunchy, kinda like funnions chips when it comes to texture.
I ordered the chicken tacos and they tasted authentic, served on corn tortillas with cilantro and onions. There's also an option (for an upcharge) if you want to swap that for lettuce, tomato, and cheese. The food overall tasted fresh and flavorful. There were 3 different fresh salsas on the table, salsa verde being our favorite.
As an appetizer we shared the chorizo loaded nachos, which had really good flavor. My cousin ordered guac and chips . it looked fresh, but for $9 I felt like the portion could have been a little bigger.
I tried a bite of my man's chicharrón quesadilla and honestly it just wasn't for me. But for dessert we got churros and those were a highlight...fresh, crispy on the outside and soft in the center, generously sprinkled with cinnamon sugar. I do wish they had dipping sauce options like Nutella, dulce de leche, or vanilla icing because that would take them to the next level.
One thing that surprised me a little was being charged for extra lime, since that's something that's usually complimentary at most places.
Before leaving I ordered birria tacos to go for my daughter at home, and my sister had the birria tacos as well.
Overall, this is a nice little small local spot with friendly service and fresh food. I'll definitely be back to try their birria tacos! read more
