For dessert we tried the guava cake, sweet tamale, and ice cream, I'm still thinking about the guava cake, it was delicious!!!

I've been to quite a few restaurants in Calvillo, including Camino Viejo, near the dam. This is…read morethe best food, hands down. Yes, you don't get views of the lake, but you get amazing food and service. The servers stood at a distance, waiting for us to signal them if we needed them. I love that. There were a few instances where two glasses of Brandy shouldn't have taken 20 minutes to arrive, but overall, service was good. The chips and salsa wasn't very good, because the chips, in our opinion, were stale. There were 4 salsas, all of which were too spicy for me But it was free, so I'm not going to take a star for that. I never ordered pan dulce, but they brought it and charged me for it. Normally I would be upset admit that, but it tasted delicious and it was worth it. The fire and marshmallows at the end was unexpected, and a perfect way to finish the visit. With the few negatives and the fact that I've been to many restaurants in Calvillo, this is by far the best, so it will get 5 stars from me.

I ordered enchiladas de mole de guayaba and they were excellent. A mix of a sweet and spicy mole along with tasty and fresh chicken wrapped in a soft corn tortilla made this dish one I highly recommend. But the dish that blew my mind was the enchiladas suizas de pollo, which my wife ordered. I've have enchiladas at many restaurants, but the ones here knock that dish out of the park. The best I've ever had. My only regret is that I didn't order the enchiladas suizas for myself. The service was fast. We were greeted as soon as we walked in and our order was taken within two minutes. The food also came out about 5 minutes after ordering. The ambiance is nice. Great for families and all walks of life. I highly recommend this restaurant.

I have been coming here for over 30 years to eat the best --and I mean the best-- tacos I've ever had. Specifically, I order the tacos de lechon which are to die for. The meat is tender and full of flavor and wrapped with soft homemade tortillas. Their salsas are great but I recommend the green one. I usually order 6 to 7 tacos but this last time I ordered and ate 10! You have to try this spot when you're in Calvillo. They open everyday at 4 pm and they close as soon as they sell out, which is usually around 6 pm. When it opens, you'll notice two lines --one to eat at the restaurant and the other for takeout. The service is fast and efficient whether you eat there or take out. Although it's small, I highly recommend to eat there to get the full experience.

Quite literally, and I mean this in all honesty and coming from a background laden with thousands…read moreof tacos, these are the best tacos in the world. Pedro, the owner/chef, purchases 40 pounds of carne asada per day and when he runs out - which he does, every day - that's it. Sometimes it's 11pm, other times it's 5pm. The beauty of his tacos isn't just the perfectly seasoned and professionally diced meat; it's not the beautiful double layer of onions (diced raw & carmelized) nor the fresh cilantro & cabbage; it's the tortillas, which are just crisp on the outside and soft, almost doughy, on the inside. Slightly larger than the lid of a Starbucks Venti, these small beauties are the perfect size vehicle for this ideal collaboration of ingredients. They also have a sweetness that I haven't previously detected in tortillas, and it makes all of the difference in the world. Absolutely outstanding - nee, amazing - and worth the trip alone. Also - at roughly 40 cents (American) per taco, you can literally go nuts; I had 15 in one sitting, 10 in another and another dozen my last day. Pedro is the Roy Choi of Huanusco, plain and simple.

Walking along I paused at this storefront, from the sidewalk I tried to make out what I thought I saw at the end of the long hallway. I told my family here, lunch, I have to hop on a Zoom call. My uncle said I had a good eye, great restaurant. We selected a table that was enclosed in its own private little garden. Paused to order a drink, a Chelada for the warm November day. Asked my family to find me something vegetarian from the menu and Zoomed into a brief work meeting. It had been remodeled we were told. Some smooth precious stone lined the floors and walls. They had ordered me a vegetarian plate. Requested nopales and avocado to be included. Pretty sure the cactus was freshly cut...little quesadillas sat atop a bed of salad and a side of rice. The white rice with Julien carrots, thin sliced chile, made with butter, a cup of milk- like the one served by my Great Grandmother also born in Calvillo. The taste of home, made with love.
