Service was friendly even though I had to say three different times I wanted an iced latte. Lol. My iced vanilla latte ($5.75) was good. I needed to stir it quite often to maintain a consistent taste, though. A bakery called Goodies Go Last also shares space with this little shop. All items are charged on one ticket. They also had an array of souvenirs. Cash or plastic was accepted. Plenty of parking.

She was so chipper and welcoming! Just sweet as could be. First off the chips and salsa. I mean other worldly! How did they get them so thin and crispy. The salsa a perfect spice not too much. Fresh! Ordered the combination plate. Again was expecting over the top spice since I am in NM. The green sauce was medium spicy, almost not spicy enough for me, not very thick you could taste the broth. The red was good too! Barbacoa very flavorful. Beans and rice like my tia used to make! I am a stickler for grefried beans! Authentic! Plenty of food! Basic tables, the mural on the wall just adds to the authenticity of the food! Plus the locals come so you know it is good.
