Even at 1 a.m. on a Friday night, the parking lot where he sets up was packed with customers, which definitely says something about how good this place is. If you're in the area during his operating hours, this is a must visit spot. The amount of toppings you get for the price is absolutely worth it. My go to has always been the elote en plato, topped with mayonnaise, butter, cheese, and chili powder. He's been using the same flavors and style for years, and that consistency brings back memories of childhood. It's one of those places that has stayed true to what made it special in the first place.

I don't live far, but somehow it's rare for me to drive by over here and today my friend said she…read morehad the same experience and we should go for lunch. The last time I was over here was when it was a kbbq taco spot back in the day. We arrived a bit after 1pm and the small parking lot was full, much easier to find street parking. Especially since a lot of people mentioned in their reviews a lot of take out orders. We sat in their outdoor patio area and recently it's been windy so be sure to bring a light jacket or sweater. The food took a while, but it came out hot and fresh. The owner said hi and asked if we needed anything which was a pleasant surprise. She was super welcoming! The food was delish. My friend ordered the albóndigas special she saw on social media over the weekend - so it's not always available. I got the Egyptian nachos which was beautifully played with a jalapeño cilantro hummus, chips decoratively fanned out and nice pops of color from the pickled red onions and sliced cucumbers. I am sooo full and didn't even finish my food. Gonna put the extra meat in a tortilla at home! I would recommend and will try to make it out again soon.

I came with a group and was asking for items that are fusion and blend both Mexican and…read moreMediterranean cuisines but the cashier's suggestions were such a let down in the end. I really don't recommend this spot and I don't think I'd ever come back which is such a disappointment because I've been wanting to check out this spot for months. For the price I don't think it's worth it even if the meat portions are generous. Not to mention they were extremely stingy with the sauces. Kofta Egyptian nachos: these were supposed to be the best fusion dish here but it just tasted like kofta on chips. The pinto beans were barely dispersed in the nachos. The guacamole hummus was pretty good but i think the overall vibe of our dishes just let me down. Kofta yalla bowl: this tastes exactly like the nachos and I prefer it bc it's more refreshing but it's so monotonous since the portions are huge. Chicken gyro: had a small bite and it was good but nothing outstanding Esquite: this was pretty tasty but I've also never had bad esquites. Sample o Pumpkin spice horchata: too much cinnamon but also I'm not the biggest fan of pumpkin spice. Sample of pollo & asada: honestly there was probably a reason why the cashier kept recommending only kofta. These were not very good; dry and lacking in flavor. The pollo was slightly better than the asada.

Beans were smoky sweet and flavorful with chicharron inside. Would come back for some bomb grilled chicken that's for sure! Entire chicken and all the sides were only $23. Cash or zelle accepted

It's a small shop, very limited indoor and outdoor seating. There was a line even at 2pm. I was chatting with my fellow line mates and most of them have been coming here for years. They said the cheap prices, consistent quality, and familiarity keep them coming back. After trying their chile relleno and green salsa burritos i can agree. Simple food, simple recipes. I felt like i was eating my grandma's food. It tasted like the food I grew up on. Don't be shy, ask to share a table with someone when there are no seats. The patrons are friendly. I can't wait to go back. Tip: don't come here expecting to be in and out. They have a sign that says it perfectly "We don't make fast food. We make quality food as fast as we can".

I just never had the opportunity or time to stop just there my way home or when I passed by. Today I was off work, in the area and I was like yes !! I'm going togo there today. First off congratulations to them standing out there committed to doing what they're doing in this ridiculous heat. As soon as I pulled up curbside, the aroma in the air was just intoxicating. I'm not sure what wood they use, I did see it was charcoal as well. There was grills lined up with beautiful grilled chicken going down /. Ribs being kept at temp on a flat top. It was just awesome , with music , like a little mini fiesta . A couple ladies were working the other side, serving drinks and one making handmade tortillas that were delicious.. I got a whole chicken , knowing i'd ear some for lunch, rest for work tonight The flavor is definitely spot on. I absolutely enjoyed it, but it was just a tad dry. I definitely would still order it again. The ribs were beautiful -delicious , tender / had a nice chew to it. I'm not a fall off the bone kind of rib guy so I liked that it has a little pull; nothing that would make you think tough.. it was also lightly brushed with a barbecue sauce, but nothing heavy, which is just the way I like my ribs. It was a rib plate and it came with two sides which was beans and rice. I haven't even tried yet. I'm kind of doing low carbs right now, but I was gonna take a bite just so I could review it but I've already packed it up for lunch tonight so can't tell you about that but I'm sure they're they're good. I mean they look good.. Overall, 8/10

Sadly we do not recommend this place. We were highly recommended to this home "local" business, but…read morenot satisfied at all. I'm Italian so, it's going to be tough to beat our at home pizza, but we give everyone a chance. So let's start off with the crust. It tasted like thin paper that was totally burnt. The margherita pizza had bell pepper on it. I'm sorry that is not a margherita pizza at all! And zero basil. Price was not bad, but for an at home business it seemed over priced. When we went, he was not at all together and we had to wait for someone to come help us finally. The service was ok, no where to sit and eat and it's Soto street which is a Main Street and I wouldn't sit on that street anyhow. Too many fast cars flying by. All in all, we have it a shot, but won't be back. There are several local pizza spots not too far away that are way better. Sorry to give a not so good review, but it was not good at all.

Service was fast as my pizza was made within 10 minutes. The pizzeria is actually at a residence so it's a little difficult to see. Hugo was friendly and generous.

They didn't get soggy at all! The flavor for both chilaquiles sauces is 100/10 & not super spicy where you can't enjoy your food! If you wanna add a little more spice, they also make a salsa on the side that they give to you and it's so spicy and yummy! One thing about the cook is his flavoring is A-1 Not to mention they over pack your plate to get you full. It's so hard to find places like this where they are not stingy when it comes to portions. It's always nice to have a little extra to share or even save some for leftovers later when you crave them again! The cucumber limon agua Fresca he made was also so delicious!! It was the best one I have ever had in my life! So sweet, tangy, and refreshing all in one. Service was amazing. They are all so kind and were fast with making the food. They have a little seating area off to the side you can sit at also if you want to eat right there after you receive your food. Overall, this little pop-up is 1000/10 and I highly recommend. Give them a try, you will not regret it. Also, on a side note....they have two other people selling next to them and they serve michis and Mariscos. Get the best of all three in one stop!
