This place is not only amazing with their food but their customer service is outstanding. I recommend trying something you never usually do and you won't be disappointed. I tried the sope, never had before and now I am hooked. Such a great spot.

Went here for the chilaquiles plate. Chilaquiles is a Mexican dish for those who do not know, are fried corn tortilla chips and cooked in either red or green chile sauce topped with cheese and Mexican Crema (sour cream sauce). Usually served with over easy eggs or eggs scrambled and incorporated into the dish for breakfast. I went wth the red sauce. The texture was perfect. I like to have a little crunch when I take a bite. Sometimes the chips can get softened when cooked in the sauce too long. Not the case here though! These were cooked just right with that perfect crispy crunch in every bite. The over-easy eggs added a layer of flavor. With that warm soft centered broken yoke oozing and mixing into every delicious morsel. The refried beans were perfect. The rice was flavorful, light, fluffy and on point. The house salsa has fresh chunks of tasty avocado in it and is very delicious on the chips served when seated. See photos. My wife opted for the mashed potato filled hard shell tacos. She really enjoyed them as well. She's not a real big meat eater so this was a perfect choice. Bold flavors, authentic recipes, visually stunning colors on every plate, plus the great friendly staff makes this all worth it! Be sure to try their thick hand made tortillas too! Visit and support this local small family owned business! Tell them you saw this on Google maps.

I popped in here after some clients had recommended this spot, and I'm so so glad I did. I had their breakfast burrito, and it was easily the best breakfast burrito I've had, ever. I will be coming back for their weekend buffet! The staff is friendly and welcoming. They have patience with you while you're ordering and answering your questions. I had the pleasure of meeting the manager Alejandro, very kind person and genuinely cares about the customers experience.

The buffet here is excellent! It only has a handful of items, but everything is delicious compared to other buffets that give you lots of options but the food is gross.

I got the Chilaquiles con frijoles y arroz. The chips were still crunchy and freaking great man. Nancy was very kind and helped me through all the available options. I'm saving this spot for when I'm back in the area. I wish I could take better photos because they don't do the taste or quality justice but, I couldn't wait and it was really good. Perfect taste.

Great services. Made reservations for 13 people for their Sunday brunch buffet everything was good with hand-made tortillas. Lots of options and portions are great, and you can get as many times as you want. Due to covid they started serving for you but they serve big portions for you. They do recommend that you are courteous to other and limit your stay to 1hr and 30min when they have a full restaurant. We (a party of 13) were in and out within an hour. Great experience and got FREE chocoflan because of my birthday.
