Great food and VERY AUTHENTIC!!!! Broad selection of options. Small place that had you feel at home. Only one waitress at lunch but she covered the tables very well. Never needed to get her attention or ask for anything. Great find. Highly recommend.

It wasn't sour cream, maybe some kind of flavorless mayo?? The chicken and other sauces were meh. The beef in the asada fries was very grisly. I'm all about great no frills hole-in-the-wall authentic Mexican places. Yelp has steered me to a couple (one amazing place in El Paso, for example) but this wasn't it. The only reason for two stars instead of one is for the salsa bar, which was not bad.

The shredded beef was placed in home made corn tortillas that were lightly fried. These flautas were just like grandma used to make, and a great surprise; far superior to the typical commercially made and deep fried variety. The retired beans were authentic made with real lard and had a buttery taste which complements the heat of the Pico de Gallo perfectly. Like any hole in the wall restaurant, you must over look the condition of the building, accept the less than fancy tables, and focus on the friendly service and spectacular food.

Do NOT stop here if you are passing through. I was stranded in the drive thru for nearing one HOUR…read more I am not exaggerating. The answer by the manager and drive thru employee was "sorry, we're swamped but he (I assume manager) says it's only been 25 minutes. That 25 minutes was AFTER I placed the order. It was a 20+ minute wait before that because you are held hostage in the drive thru because they have it all curbed off. You cannot escape. After my initial complaint (I'm usually not a complainer, hate confrontations) was minimized to "25 minutes" it was an additional 15 minutes, for a grand total of an hour wait. In addition this location is dirty. And as you can probably guess the order was incorrect in almost every way. I understand it's hard to retain employees right now, but it's on the manager to stop taking orders or inform customers of 45+ wait BEFORE they are trapped in line. This added an hour to a cross country trip.
