My family and I loved the food. I had the taco dinner meat was delicious, rice & beans good too. My daughter caldo de res and that was so delicious. My husband had the burrito man that was stuffed and good. We definitely coming back and bring friends & family. Our waitress is very sweet and nice.

It was my first time stopping in and I was so glad that I did. The menu was really great with lots of variety. The food was fantastic. I highly recommend. We will be back soon.

Took my dad here for Father’s Day. Our server gave us a warm welcome and was kind and attentive during our meal - bringing us each cups of homemade Fideo soup to try and it was lovely! All our dishes were delicious and we ended with the best fried ice cream my dad said he’s had in years. We’ll be back!
