Customer Reviews

A nice little grocery section for picking up Mexican food items, like beans, masa harina, ingredients to make tamales, etc. Not familiar with their menu, I decided to try gorditas this time. They were as filled as could possibly be and excellent. I'll try something else next time, to learn other foods - will definitely be back! Update: they have Mexican Coke in stock in their fridge and we really love the street tacos.

Outstanding Mexican cuisine. Had a steak bureto, tacos el pastor, and Mexican Guacamole. Also a big selection of beers. Very reasonably priced and service was great. Don't be fooled by the facade. Best Mex. In the area. You will not be disappointed.

Delicious food! I got three asada gorditas, they were SO good! Super hot, very fresh and everything was perfect. They were made very fast, maybe 5 minutes. Great price. Friendly people in the store! The red and green salsa are awesome. Will be back soon!

I just stopped in for a quick lunch. Two wonderful steak tacos... prepared quickly, but completely fresh! Cooked to order and perfectly spiced. They also have a selection of sweets, and I picked up some to go.
