Happened to be in this area and craving some good Mexican food & pozole! Found this place on Yelp and it didn't disappoint. Way bigger than it looks from the outside so there's plenty of seating; booths and larger tables for bigger groups. Everybody was so friendly and helpful. Pozole, Burrito, & aguas Frescas had so much flavor! I would love to go back one day! read more

Nice neighborhood restaurant. Clean and nicely updated. I enjoyed a 2 steak taco dinner with rice and beans. As well as a medium horchata , $16.32. Maybe a few more dollars than I expected, but good food. Nice salsas, the red salsa had spice but manageable. Plenty of tables and booths inside for dine in. The service was fast and polite. Located on the South Side of 26th Street. East of Ridgeland Avenue. Free street parking. read more

Hace un momento tuve el peor servicio en este lugar. Quiero recalcar que mi familia y yo somos clientes frecuentes y generalmente no soy de poner reviews quejandome de los lugares que frecuento pero siento que merecen esta mala reseña. Llamé para poner una orden y la persona que atendió simplemente se le hizo fácil colgarme, pero no le tomé importancia y volví a intentar porque pensé que talves se fue la señal o algo por el estilo. Pues llamé nuevamente, y la dama que tomó mi llamada me respondió con muy mala actitud, entiendo que talves puedan estar ocupados pero no es mi culpa y tampoco estoy llamando para pedir regalado, creo que todos merecemos una buena atención porque al final de cuentas gracias a los clientes su negocio existe. En fin, puse mi orden rápido para no retrasar (todavia yo siendo considerada) y le recalco muy bien "por favor quiero mis tacos sin cebolla", la señora como por altanería me puso extra cebolla, algo absurdamente malintencionado e incomible, no quise regresar porque sinceramente estaba demasiado molesta y no queria montarles una escena en el lugar, simplemente me tocó tirarlos porque soy alergica y no puedo comer cebolla, y todavía para terminarme de fastidiar, les pedi jugo de naranja natural porque a mi hijo le encanta y le han puesto todas las semillas, y de todas las veces que mi familia y yo hemos ido a comer allí, JAMAS le habian puesto semillas a nuestros jugos y es precisamente por eso que mis hijos les gustaban (obviamente como mamá uno siempre va donde sus hijos comen y disfrutan estar) Les daría la foto de la factura pero fue muy "astuta" la persona que hizo mi orden al no entregarmela, solamente tengo la copia del pago de tarjeta. Pensar que todavia le di propina en efectivo a una persona que no mecere ni siquiera trabajar en un lugar de servicio al cliente porque evidentente no valora lo que tiene, ademas de que pagué por algo que ni me comí. En fín, no pienso volver y para nada vuelvo a recomendar este lugar. read more

Food is delicious!! Service is great, friendly!! Restaurant is clean!! Menudo is really good!

Really extensive menu, hole in the wall type of traditional Mexican place with pretty authentic food. The tacos were really well filled but a bit on the pricey side. Same thing with the burrito. But everything was really tasty!! Complimentary chips were really good. Nice variety of salsas given although missing a normal normal tasting red salsa. Nice service. read more

Al pastor tacos were mediocre at best and on top of that expensive, not coming back!!!!!!

Well I usually rate this place a 4 stars due to value, service, cleanliness but today I was disappointed. The torta asada was supposed to come with avocado but I received one 1/4 of it. Not normal. read more

Good food, good service, nice little restaurant with many folks walking in. Will be coming back here again!

I'm new to the area when I stumbled open this place, and so glad I did. I am extremely picky with Mexican food, because I grew up in a traditional Mexican home and Los Angeles. This restaurant gives home vibes. The service and staff were great. Please do yourself a huge favor and try this place. You won't regret it. Tips: Try and pay with cash. read more

Food was tasty but pricey. Not a lot for the price. Service is great and ambiance and in and out restaurant, authentic Mexican food.

I am leaving a 5/5 star review for their POZOLE!!! The best pozole hands down. I order every weekend and they never disappoint!

Hidden gem. Amazing tacos. Especially the Al pastor. Tacos are nice and loaded, service can be a little poor. But the food makes up for that. Highly recommend read more

Recommended by friends so I had to try. I brought my family to eat after church. Very busy place which you know food is good. I had the chiles rellenos I highly recommend. The gorditas and sopes are good size, very filling and tasteful. The only thing was that at the time to pay the cashier gives me my total. Then somehow had to reenter my order and it goes up $8.00. I question it and she tells me that 5 people or more they charge the tip. Which shouldn't be charged! I told her to put it up on the wall to inform customers at the time to pay. People will be charged tip and still leave a tip on the table. read more

This is my go to spot for carne en su jugo delicious and very tasty and there tacos de tripas delicious just wish there salsas were spicier other than that consistent good flavors recommend this place read more

Our favorite spot anytime we want something warm, fresh, and delicious. Best Carne en su jugo! Sabroso! Amazing menudo with pata.

Stopped here for a quick bite before an event that required us to be well feed prior and we left very content. Place is very clean on the inside and service is quick and friendly. The carne asada was good quality meat and well seasoned. Only knock is they add a 4% charge if you pay with card. Would definitely recommend and return. read more

Looking for a local taco haunt with really excellent food? This is the place. We are regulars at their competitor just a block west of them, but finally decided to walk a few more meters to give this restaurant a try. It always looks like it is full of people so that was a good sign. I was not disappointed. First off the restaurant looks very clean and the service was on the spot. Although there is a lot of Spanish spoken I there, the server helped us in English. They have a very complete menu of antojitos and other things one expects in an American Mexican food restaurant, but also things that you look for if you grew up in a Mexican household. The food was delicious and served in good portions. I had a variety of tacos to gauge the seasonings relative to what I do at home (pardon my narcissism, but i like my own cooking). There was not a clunker in the bunch. I especially liked their chorizo tacos because they cooked it so perfectly. Too often chorizo tacos fail because the sausage is over cooked and dry, this was great. I recommend it to my son who is a super fan of their closest competitor and even he came away saying t was in many ways, better. 26th street is not always an easy place to find a parking spot, but it is worth the frustration because you will have a great meal. read more

I visited a friend a nd we ate a burrito which was bought from this place and I like it that is why I decided to visit the place. I think I've already been here long ago. The place is clean and the atmosphere is cozy. The staff is nice and friendly in the counter. I just wanted their burrito but they got a nice and many Mexican food option on their menu so I also ordered some tacos. There are only a few people inside including me but the food seems to take longer than I expected. I waited patiently for the food and everything is served with a nice portion. The burrito was really good and I think I am going to be fan of it. The tacos were nice but not exactly how I thought it would be. That was all and I highly recommend their burritos! read more

Not very big restaurant mom and pop spot feel, Friendly staff, pretty quick service, delicious food i enjoy the carne en su jugo made to order the avocados, onions, and cilantro are always fresh read more

Great food and prices! Ordered a variety of tacos and had a side of rice and beans and an horchata. Everything was delicious! The food reminded me a lot of Atotonilco if you ever ate there. They have tables you can eat at inside. Good service and clean restaurant. Try the chile relleno taco! I will be back for sure! read more

Ordered delivery a few times recently. Delivered fast. Food was great. Chicken burrito and al pastor tacos are awesome.
