Possibly only one cook for the entire restaurant. Need to do better. Also, be warned about the cost of a side order of quacamole! A small dish containing a small portion of quacamole made from most likely ONE avocado is a ridiculous $12.50! Expensive? No...Ripoff? YES! Grade: C Good food, slow service, high prices for cheap ingredients.

Every time I eat here, I always say it myself that this place has the freshest best tasting grilled chicken, grilled shrimp, seasoned vegetables, salsa, and food! I don't know how they do it, but it's so delicious and served perfectly hot every time! Actually, this is one of my two go to restaurants and favorite spots that I use all the time! It's not uncommon for me to go here every weekend for even eight weeks in a row. While the service is excellent. the food is cooked to order. So you may wait a little longer than you're used to for your food, but that's the reason why it's so delicious and so perfectly served! If you'd rather be served faster there's plenty of other options to go. You still get served fast enough though and they do put a nice bowl of chips and salsa on your table while you wait. I am sort of stubborn so every time I go I get the grilled chicken and shrimp fajitas with corn tortillas. You could also get regular tortillas. This meal is so perfect for me. I'm never gonna change but oh my goodness they have one heck of a menu. Also, this place is absolutely beautifully decorated, and you feel like you're in Mexico City! I guess it's time to let the secret out, you'll really be happy you went here!

We came here for dinner after reading the reviews and were excited to try it. We got here and were…read moreimmediately seated. The restaurant is small, with walls that are white on top and brown on the bottom, 3 booths lining the left wall and 2 booths on the right, and regular tables seating up to 4 guests. The Mexican flag is hung up on the right wall while Ecuador's flag hangs on the left and cultural items surround them as well. The drinks refrigerator can be seen in the back and the entrance to the adjoining store is found on the back by the left wall, with decorations on strings hanging over the entire restaurant. A soccer game was playing while we were there. We ordered the following: Lengua Forrada; Arroz y frijoles- Hubs thought this was ok. We weren't expecting an uncut tongue. Normally, when we order lengua, it's all diced up and put on tortillas. This time, we got a couple of whole tongues. It was a little weird. LOL. The rice and beans were good. Flautas- corn tortillas filled with chicken or steak and fried topped with lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream and cheese. I chose steak. I actually liked it because the flautas were nice and crispy. Enchiladas Mexicana Bistec; salsa Verde- corn tortillas rolled and stuffed with choice of shredded chicken or steak, topped with either red or green salsa. Daughter chose the steak with green salsa and said that this was pretty good. She thought it was flavorful and meaty and that it hit the spot. Tres leches - I got it to go. I found mold on top of the tres leches. You wouldn't be able to see it if you didn't open the lid because it was underneath their label. I don't know what made me open the lid but I'm glad I did. I returned it to the server and showed it to her but she never removed it from the bill. I didn't say anything about it but counted it as part of the tip. I'm giving this place 3 stars because of the mold on the tres leches and the server didn't take it off the bill after I returned it to her. I didn't say anything about it because there was a language barrier and I didn't know how to approach her saying it. While service was quick and friendly, I won't be returning here because of the mold and we got billed for it, anyway.

TLDR: Nice flavors in a low key spot…read more The food had a nice balance of heat, sweetness, and salt. Some of the pork was overcooked and hard though. The salad was fresh and crisp - a welcome addition to the rest of the rich plate. At $20 the plate was an ok value. The restaurant was bustling and low key. I would consider coming again, but with so many other restaurants in the area I'd probably try something else first.

I figured onions / peppers (ya know, quesadilla stuff) and said sure. Instead of a pressed cheesy quesadilla I received a tortilla stuffed with huge pieces of broccoli, carrots and zucchini. Totally bizarre and unappetizing. The pieces of chicken were equally bad and were steamed and dry and not flavorful, almost felt like chicken you'd find in a stir fry without seasoning. My husband had the same kind of chicken in his tacos. Not good. Other misses included my kids cheese quesadilla which wasn't properly melted and just filled with shredded cheese. And the guacamole which was watery and not thick or creamy. We weren't sure if this was made with tomatillos, or maybe just water. Whatever it was, I wasn't sold. Pros included a nice outdoor patio, good service, BYOB, and decent chips and salsa. Maybe that's why people come here? For appetizing food this is not where you want to be. I won't be returning.

The tortillas were fresh, the shrimp tacos were surprisingly good, and the salsas tasted homemade and packed plenty of flavor. I'll definitely be back to try the chile relleno. The prices are a tad high for what you get, and I wish they offered some chips and salsa to snack on while waiting. Still, for quick roadside eats, this is a solid stop that's well worth pulling over for.

Hubs got the Taco Lengua, which is beef tongue taco. The order comes with 3 tacos and is ridiculously heavily filled. He said that the beef tongue is nice and soft. The provided brown sauce was very spunky and the green sauce was pretty good as well. It was nice and tart. He said that it was one of the best tacos that he's had. I got the Plato de Chile Relleno along with a side of tortillas. We were surprised to see that the rellenos came with macaroni salad instead of rice, but it was delicious! The beans were nice, soft and flavorful. Chile rellenos were delicious, as well. Everything was made to order and delicious. All came with chips and soda. There were some booths in the back alongside the wall but we chose to eat at a community table in the middle. There wasn't anyone sitting there. This place is struggling. We were told that customers have stopped coming since the new administration took over. Hopefully, business will pick up soon for them. Service was quick and friendly. Will definitely return to try other items on the menu.

The staff was kind when we picked up the food and the ambiance was similar to any mexican take out place. The chips were the perfect crunch and seemed homemade. We bought chips and salsa and it came with a green and red sauce. Both sauces were good. We ordered a side of guacamole. It came in a sauce container and is overpriced for the quantity. It was bland and probably not worth ordering. The taco had good flavor, but the meat in it was chewy. The loco burrito was massive and the ingredients were dispursed well, however the ingredients were slightly bland. We were going back and forth on if this place is a 2 or 3. We have been here once before and the food we thought was worthy of a 4. Overall, maybe this place is considered incosistent in their quality.
