I meal and two beers 39.95 Barely any protein on the plate ! Nice friendly people, but very small protein portions for the price!
Place is clean and staff are nice. Food is good . So my Family ordered chicken mole, flautas, Carne asada tacos, Shrimp with red sauce and cow tongue with green sauce and everything was delicious. They also brought out a Habanero green hot sauce which was good.But not spicy for my taste buds.As you know I like spice! So let me just review the food now the Chicken mole was really good , Although it did kind of taste like donya maria's mole I would recommend it for those who don't like Mole that's too strong. The floutas were good.I ordered chicken and it was really tasty.It was juicy and the flavor was there.I love the crunchy flour tortilla. The tacos were good.It was beef and they come with green sauce and red sauce.Both were good, very flavorful.Typical taco meal love it! So The shrimps and red sauce Is supposed to be hot, but I'm immune to hot sauces.This was really good.Has a good kick and it's delicious.The shrimps are big and it feels you up.I would order this again. And last But not least the Cow tongue in green sauce.That one is my favorite , I actually ordered this couple of times that I've been here.This one is Best it comes with Tomatillo green sauce and onion. Now all of the dishes come with rice and beans.And those are really good too.I highly recommend this place ten outta ten
I ordered tamales and rice for my bday party recently. They were both excellent!! Everyone was very helpful in making suggestions such as getting the tamale sauces and getting the oven safe containers. We kept them in the oven on low and then served them from a hot plate. They stayed moist and warm. Thank you all for making my party a success!!
Great food / portions / service!! We had the catfish and beef tongue plate. Both were delicious!! Catfish was cooked perfectly and crispy on the outside. Beef tongue was tender. Portions were large.
