★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Mayron De la Cruz Pérez · Dec 2025

The place smells bad, i order 6 steak tacos, honestly speaking the worse seasoning, taste like water, that was not a fresh meat at all. This is the place you go once and never return. Very poor quality food and atmosphere not pleasant. Hopefully they can change before the business closed.

I should have taken the fact that the restaurant was practically empty as the first red flag. The menu prices posted inside are not accurate, and the cashier made no effort to mention the changes or put up any signs. That lack of transparency feels misleading. The food itself was a major letdown: Lacking the authentic flavor you’d expect, and the protein portions (steak, chicken, etc.) were embarrassingly small for what they charge.. Overall, this was a very underwhelming experience and not a place I would recommend.

★★★★★ 5.0 Ashley Singh · Jul 2025

The food here is honestly very good. You can tell by the taste in the meat that it’s properly cleaned and seasoned. The Pupusas are great as well. You can definitely tell that the food is made with love! Such an authentic place!

I've been coming here for 3 years now. Hands down this is my favorite Mex spot. If you're into boujee Mexican food this is not for you this straight home cooked mexican food. Aesthetics need updating but that's not whats it's about. Keep up the great job folks!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Joey Riz · Apr 2017

Went here for the fist time last week. Walking in At first you know it's a mom and pop kinda restaurant. Small menu but had some good choices. Ended up with the pork tacos and a few little things. The food is all scratch made home cooking. It was good but a little on the expensive side. May go back and try again.
