What customers say?

“ Very good food here. Kind of hard to see from the road and difficult to get to because it sits on a one way street. Well worth the effort though. ”

“ We where passing by on the way back home that was far and decided to give it a try. Its like a little hole in the wall but it was packed. We got the pick 3 combination plate, kids lunch and two drinks. We spent about $60 with tip for two adults and a 4 year old. Food was flavorful and the tamale was my favorite of all. Some of the items felt like they just heated it up from the microwave besides that im happy we gave it a try. Food was great and the service was good too. I wished the chips are made fresh but the hot salsa was spot on. ”
