    We were MIGHTY excited to have stumbled on this gem off the beaten path while in Milwaukee. The residential area is called Walkers Pt. This used to be a neighborhood bar several years ago and is now a bustling neighborhood Mexican eatery. Mainly Hispanic diners were here when we were dining for lunch. A good sign. Guadalajara was packed. Food was great, service was an A+ for both attentiveness & an extremely friendly waitress. Just a plain looking home from the outside...Surprise inside!!!!!! Heard they had good mole. We had a chimichangas & enchiladas. YUM. My son will definitely add this to his regular rotation dining list

    A small restaurant with a homey laid back atmosphere. Service was incredible! The staff was very friendly and attentive to us. The food was absolutely delicious. The shrimp fajitas were very flavorful with an abundance of vegetables. The flavor of the arbol sauce was so good I would order it 1000x. They also had conchas which we took one to go and was so soft and fresh.

    Mole Poblano

    I've dined here a few times over the years, and the food has always been excellent! There aren't many places that serve true birria (using goat meat), but this place is one of them, and they do it well. Most recently, I brought my sister and a friend's daughter in for lunch. I've been wanting to try the Mole Poblano I've heard so much about, and it delivered with an incredible rich flavor! The mole is served over chicken with sides of rice, refried beans, and choice of corn or flour tortillas. I enjoyed every bite! It's clear that word is out on how great this place is because it was the first time I've ever walked into a Mexican restaurant and had to wait for a table. They were busy, and they had carry-out orders on top of a full dining room! A couple in town for the NCAA tournament learned about them and went in for lunch, too. It's a small place putting up big, authentic flavors and great service, so get check it out!

    One of my favorite Mexican restaurants in the city. Although the space is tiny and cozy, they definitely make it super inviting and welcoming. They do a really good mix of various traditional soups and stews - one of my favorite plates to start off with is the coctel de camaron as an app. They also have really tasty horchata and jamiaca. Their michelada is solid and they have a variety of beers to mix it with. When I come here, I feel like it's one of my own aunts or family members are the folks who are serving up the great food that I'm getting ready to enjoy. It's always a pleasure to be greeted and although there might be a slight wait time, it's always worth it.

    Fantastic food and service. Parking can be a challenge and you may have to wait for a table but it's well worth it. Start with the beans & queso- yum. We like to order ala carte so we can try several things and not miss out. Love that they offer multiple soups daily including two different types of pozole (chicken verde and pork rojo)--take some to go! We always do.

    Looked for authentic Mexican restaurants in Milwaukee since I haven't been here since I was 15. Googled and found this place - great place to have some real Mexican food w a nice cold Michelada. It's 5 o'clock somewhere. We liked the look and ambiance here. Cute decorations - great service & definitely nice drinks! We had different choices to try more than one plate plus we had an appetizer. Queso fundido w homemade flour tortilla was the way to go - it also came w beans on the side. We devoured that in minutes. Then our meals you can see in photos - please go try this place out. The only downfall due to limited staff - they didn't have menudo or pozole or tacos de lengua to try. But that did not stop us from stringing and ordering other menu items. Please try this place they have a great variety of foods for your group. Also nice touch was an outside dining area. One small downfall was the parking area next to building fits only a couple cars do you probably have to park like a few doors down. Overall amazing experience - 10+stars Oh did I mention they helped me pack my leftovers so I can donate to the homeless. I hate to throw away my leftovers when we have too many hungry people in this world!

    hey now! This place was awesome! It's not fancy or ambient, but a true Mexican joint with lots of Spanish being spoken, Mexican music playing, and GREAT Mexican food. Not all the servers speak English well, so it's good to be very clear when. you are putting your order in. We had a little problem with the number of tacos being different from what we had ordered. Chimichanga - pretty much a fried burrito. DE-licious. We had the al pastor meat for this. Burrito - the menu shows the picture of a very small burrito, so we thought we were getting like a Taco Bell burrito... but it was surprisingly bigger and fatter than what they had pictured. It was quite good and very filling. Tacos - the "steak" is more like ground beef, that is just seasoned with salt and pepper. Their "ground beef" is the same cut of meat, but seasoned in a heavier, spicier sauce. Al Pastor was classic delicious. They do tend to sear their meat. This is great for bigger chunks of meat, like al pastor, but the the "steak" it made it somewhat dry. Next time, I'll stick with al pastor for the tacos. And a chicmichanga. It's been a few days and looking at the pictures, I'm salivating and craving some more. No wonder the place was pretty much packed at 2pm on a weekday.

    I forgot to take a picture of my food! :( so sad as it was so good. This place is a super cute and local restaurant with very friendly staff. Super polite and helpful. I got a combo platter for dinner which provided a variety of food for me to have. All tasted wonderful. The margs were a bit off to me which maybe it was just a one time thing?

    This place is amazing! My husband and I went about 40 minutes before they closed and they were so nice and didn't act as if they were annoyed or trying to rush us out of the door. My husband got a marg and loved it plus said it was nice and strong. I got a taco and a few other things (see picture) but don't remember what all of them were. The steak was good quality. Al pastor was also great. They were also attentive before and after our food came. Will definitely go back and would absolutely recommend!

I ordered a Gin Rickey and it looked dark after explaining twice to the bartender how to make it and it was absolutely awful because he made it with JB whisky and not Gin, whiskey, seltzer and lime juice with a fresh lime doesn't mix very well at all. My bartender miss heard me and corrected my drink with no problem. If I lived in the neighborhood I would probably be a regular.

    Sasquash Pumpkin Lager: Milwaukee (MKE) Brewing Company brewed their first beer in October of 1997…read more Although it's the appropriate time of year, it was not the pumpkin lager I have today. I've become less of a beer guy since my college days, but I couldn't resist the urge to pick this up. Even though I find them to be real hit or miss, I like to try at least one new pumpkin beer each fall. What caught my attention was the interesting looking design on the can of a sasquatch-like creature with a jack-o'-lantern head. It didn't even occur to me until much later that the name of the beer was not Sasquatch, but Sasquash. If you're as slow as me, it's a nice play on words that combines squash (pumpkin) with sasquatch (as in the mythical creature) into the name of this brew. I had a difficult time finding background information on this specific beer, but sources indicate it is made with both pumpkin and pumpkin spice. It is a Viena style lager that comes in at 6% ABV. Personally, I found it to have a light pumpkin flavor and it was a tad too bitter for my preference. The Sasquatch/Bigfoot may have achieved a legendary status, but this pumpkin lager is just okay .
