    Enchiladas Verdes
    Mallory D.

    Ordered takeout and it was ready within 20 minutes which was great! The enchiladas verdes with chicken was good! Looks like a great place to sit down and eat too.

    Fajitas Mi Ranchito

    Unexpected surprise. Very local and authentic Mexican fare. Busy on a Saturday afternoon. The servers appeared to be overwhelmed but were very gracious. We were served complimentary drinks for the longer wait. I enjoyed my fajitas. There is indoor and outdoor seating. Festive vibe.

    Sopes Platter

    My hubby and I stopped by for lunch not realizing we just found our new go to place. Our waitress was nice and welcoming. The sopes were filling and the enchiladas were amazing. Everything tasted homemade. We can wait to go back!

    Flautas Platter
    Lynn D.

    I pass by this restaurant daily on my way home from work and never noticed it. The building on the outside is plain and set in a tiny strip mall. But walk inside and it comes alive with wonderful cooking smells and colorful murals-such a surprise! They also have a small bar with a variety of tequilas and while the margaritas look very good the VIP Michelada is the cocktail main character. It's kind of a cross between a michelada and a shrimp cocktail and it's delicious! I also really loved their chips and salsa-couldn't put my finger on exactly why but I couldn't get enough of them. The salsa was very smooth but with bold flavors and the chips were very fresh. For entrees we had flautas and taco combo-both very good. Service was good-only small complaint is that the beans were watery and lacked much flavor. Overall a great experience and I highly recommend!

    Don't hesitate if you want authentic Mexican food. A little bumpy but totally worth it to come into the Small restaurant. Service is friendly and quick and the food is absolutely delicious. I got the fajita sin tortillas .. because I just don't eat the tortilla. 3 proteins: asada, chicken & shrimp. Some guacamole.. because one must. And a Modelo Negra. It's delish. Do it! Come here!

    Chilaquiles

    The agua chile has beautiful presentation and good flavor Also tried the green chilaquiles those where amazing with the beans and rice Tried some tacos the tripe is the best everything else was missing salt Service was speedy and really nice! They have beautiful art on the wall and it is easy to have a conversation without feeling that you're being too loud or not loud enough

    The food tastes great, it always comes out quickly and the staff is always friendly! I typically inhale their burritos, they are so good.

    Hands down the BEST MEXICAN FOOD I have had in FOREVER!!! I wish I would have gotten pictures. I…read moreordered The Masterpiece. Chili Relleno, cheese enchilada, chicken taco, beans and rice, and a regular Margarita. Each of the dishes had its own distinct flavor profile. The margarita had a very light refreshing taste that was very enjoyable. They go down easy so be careful The service was incredible DENISE is not only the manager but a server too. She was cheerful, kind, and very attractive to all our needs. We had a party of 8 with 3 small children and she was a CHAMP! The ambiance was amazing. Like a old mexican cantina with raw bric and painted family portraits of the Matriarch of the family that started the restaurant. All in all I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE!!!

    Ordered the masterpiece…read more Chili relleno was rather bland. There was no seasoning and the outside fell off of the chili while the cheese inside fell out of the chili. So maybe a 5/10. The enchilada sauce was again rather bland though creamy. Likely a 6/10. Just did not appeared to be seasoned in any way. The taco was a 5/10. I liked how they achieved the crunchy corn tortilla, but again it was very bland. The rice was soggy and flavorless. The refried beans had some cheese . But once again, no seasoning of any kind. The flan was pretty well made, though they didn't bother giving me the whipped cream. Our waitress was hostile to us and we ended up having to go up to the register to pay at the end after 1.75 hours. I had ordered the flan after somebody else ordered and it had come out. I wanted to see what it looked like before deciding. The waitress looked at me like "really" like why did I not order it earlier. When I asked for silverware after getting it she just about snapped. She hadn't cleaned up the extra silverware on the table as is normally expected so she grabbed it and slammed it by me like she was losing it. The air of the place kind of gave off a toxicity like nobody wanted to be there, everyone was miserable, and the customers were treated as annoyances that needed to get out. The food came across as the kitchen having lost all passion for cooking and doing the absolute bare minimum. Felt like I was at a restaurant from kitchen nightmares and Gordon Ramsay was going to walk in at any second. I had terrible gas and pain after getting home even 5 hours later so I am pretty sure the chili relleno had gluten, though that's my fault. We ended up here because there were not many decent options open at 3:30 pm. It was a place nobody really wanted to go to and I do not imagine that we will ever find ourselves here ever again. Rather not feel like our waitress is about to attack us and the people at the register look at us like go away.

As someone who's used to Southern California Mexican food, I usually find a lot of the Mexican restaurants in Reno to be a bit bland.

We got right in and I asked to sit at the bar right in front of the tv. The staff were super friendly and the bartenders chatted with us the whole time while also enjoying the fight themselves in between making their drinks. The food was super delicious. We ordered Aguachile (really good but super sour), pineapple jalapeño wings (too sweet and not my fave), ribeye chicharron........be prepared to cough and have the people sitting near you cough non stop lol. It was spicy and a bit dry but good. My favorite was the roasted bone marrow with garlic bread. Insanely good. We had a great time and will definitely be back.

    I've been to (almost*) every Mexican restaurant in Reno and this is the one I keep coming back to…read moreand keep recommending. The torta ahogada with the carnitas is a culinary delight! The bread is somehow soaked in a sauce but still crunchy just beneath the sauce, and springy/chewy in the middle. The flavors are rich and amazing. Finally you can add the spicy hot sauce if you want and you will be sweating bullets but happy about it at the same time. I also love the tacos de canasta as a fun and delicious appetizer. The food is always comes out super fast, and I leave super happy. The only gotchas are that only some of the staff speaks English so be ready for that, and that they have live music at night on the weekends, and it tends to get a little loud in the building. *I haven't been to 1 in Reno yet because it's hasn't been open the 3 times I've tried, and I haven't been to all the places in the valleys yet.

I don't do raw onions, so I ordered grilled onions and jalapeños tatemados and avocado slices on the side... BEST decision. That smoky, charred flavor took the tacos to another level.

The coconut lime one surprised me... SO good. They really went above and beyond here.
