Maybe the food tasted extra delicious because Im 8 months pregnant. Either way, the best morisqueta and enchiladas. I wish they had the guilota to accompany them!! Service was exceptional.

As close to homemade as you can get in the Commerce/Bell Gardens area. Food is delicious, hand made and the people are super sweet. A little pricey, but the quality, the service and the flavor is worth the price. The quesadilla de nopales con Chile rojo on a handmade tortilla is by far one of the best I’ve ever had! It’s definitely a gem of a restaurant in our area.

Really glad we happen to drive by this place! So much traffic on our way home made us take a detour and we had the munchies.Super Nachos & agua de pepino were so delicious and fresh tasting😍Edit. I come for lunch every now and then and their torta de cabeza is so good.🙌🏽That agua de pepino🔥

Restaurant is a bit outdated but they keep it clean and make it up by great food, ingredients, and friendly service. Everything tastes fresh and they dont skimp out on cheap cheese too. Best sopes and huaraches Ive had.

This restaurant is the quintessential neighborhood dining place. The food was fantastic, plentiful, the staff ; two beautiful ladies were so nice, so helpful, so pleasant. The gentleman just stayed busy preparing everything and he still had time to assist the two ladies, and customers, in assuring that everyone had their orders met.This was a terrific dining experience. Seating, well, not so good. 3 booths, 2 tables and a counter for 3. Inside then 3 tables for four and a counter for 3 outside. Parking is 80% on the street and maybe 10 spaces off street.This is a great Mexican restaurant. Everyone speaks primarily spanish so know what you want prior to stopping unless your fluent in Spanish.Highly recommended.🙂😋

I ordered a carne asada burrito, not worth the money, it did not taste good. The rice and beans were very dry, it tasted like they were days old. Nothing on the burrito was fresh.

Review №12

The presentation on the plates are nice but, is not good as it looks. The customer service is really poor. Cashier didnt know the menu. I order the costillas and my husband the enchiladas. We know we would never go back and I honestly would not recommend this place.

I tried their fish tacos, the lady at the counter recommended them. They were freshly made, good portion, lots of salsa from the small salsa bar they have.The tacos had good flavor, not the best, but were very satisfying. Would I go back to get them? Defenetly, yes 👍.I accompanied the tacos with a fresh pinaple water, very delicious, not too sweet, just right. It came in a glass mason jar. Not the best option in my opinion.The restaurant was very clean and the staff was helpful and accommodating, considering my 30 minute lunch. The whole meal was inexpensive and satisfying.

They accidentally gave one of my orders to someone else but when brought to their attention, they immediately apologized and gave me a new one. Its very good and everything is made to order. The place is very small but other than that, the place is perfect.

Very delicious food! We ordered some sopes, tacos, and huaraches, they were all well done and seasoned. Each sope was big and had enough meat.

Chilaquiles were good but not extraordinary like I had seen on Instagram. The rice was dry. I went last Saturday around 3. Hope this information is useful for improvement.

I loved it! It was my first time, stopped by to try the birria and it was amazing. The staff there are so welcoming you feel like youre with family. That is definitely the spot I will be hitting every time I get craving for birria.

So I was working around the area, a couple years back, and I got invited to this place. Until this day, I thank my buddy who brought me here. The place was really clean. The lady in the counter made it feel that I was talking with my tia or someone from the family( but the tia that gets down at cooking, if youre Hispanic, you know what I mean) plus they have the habanero salsa, but you have to ask for it because they dont have it available unless requested. Make sure you ask for it, you wont be disappointed if youre into spicy food. Speaking of, one word, authentic! Taste like my tia made it for me. Thats all I have to say.

I had the Verde Mojado Burrito and it was excellent. Went with a group of 7 and we sat outside in the middle of the day, everyones food was great and the workers were eager to please. A+, would visit again, certainly worth checking out if youre in the area.

Really good overall. Nothing short of a traditional Mexican food Stand in California. I am from Texas and Mexican food is very different in all of the U.S of A but Cali food is quite known for its rice included inside the burritos.I really enjoyed the carne asada burrito sauce on the side and the asada Huarache with a Pepino Agua Fresca, Prices are okay not too shabby there and food quality was really good 5 stars to this little hidden Gem.

We arrived by mistake thinking they were selling pupusas. We bought a head cake and a chicken tinga quesadilla, the cake was good but the quesadilla was not. Chia water is also good. The restaurant is very dirty, when you are eating and you look around you in detail, you realize that they dont clean often. There was no toilet paper or soap in the bathroom. In the corner where the bathroom door is, there is a hole in the wall, where cockroaches or mice can get out. Setting up or having a restaurant is very delicate, there must be a lot of cleaning above all. I will not come here again nor do I recommend it.
