“ This restaurant was so great. I really appreciate the hospitality from the staff, the beautiful and colorful decor, and the tasty food. I tried the chilaquiles w/ birria and my bf had the chicken enchiladas. The dishes are prepared with a green salsa, and were so delicious! The portion sizes are very generous for the price too. Omg I was so satisfied. We'll come again, thank you! ”
“ Service was good! The food was delicious! I got the 3 queso birria especial and they were bomb. The horchata was good too. ”
“ We always order 2 or 3 a la cartes, beans, rice, and tortillas for friends' gatherings at my house at their request. Everybody loves them. ”
“ I recently came here with my family after a day at MOLAA museum. We were craving some authentic Mexican food and happy we found this place because it was exactly that! The food smelled delicious as soon as you walk in. We were warmly greeted upon arriving. You order at the counter then the food is brought out to you. Do yourself a favor and get an agua fresca because it will come with chamoy rimmed cup. Messy and delicious! We had gobernador tacos ( shrimp tacos), quesadilla, soyrizo burrito, (2) 3 taco plate to try different proteins everything tasted authentic, fresh and delicious! There were Mexican party jams, good food and vibes at this spot. The name got my attention but I'm coming back because of the food. ”
“ My Dad and I stopped here after a kayaking trip in Redondo Beach on a Saturday night. Cute, buried at the end of strip mall. I had a wet burrito with rajas and soyrizo. So delicious. My dad three tacos, two with carnival and one I can't remember. The portions were huge. The service was fast. They were busy to go orders. I think the tortillas are made fresh. If I lived in the area I would definitely come back. ”
“ I was in the area and wanted a quick bite but nothing too heavy... pulled up the Yelp app and it lead me here. We arrived around 8:30 on Saturday night and there was only another family dining. Parking: 5/5 in a huge lot next to North Gate si parking is a non issue. Food: 5/5 We decided to try some tacos Baja shrimp, birria, spicy shrimp and gobernador and boy I'm glad we did. They are made with tortillas he has a mano and they're pretty big! It had some delicious tasty salsas and it's garnishments! No need for extra salsas. The shrimp gobernador came in threes $12 and the tortillas were a little fried with melted cheese really really tasty! I took some nachos home and ate them later on. Prices are less than regular so about 4 dollars per taco. We got our agua Fresca with our check in. Super refreshing. Ambiance: 5/5 it's not a full restaurant but more of a quick meal. No frills just straight to the point! It's a decorated with lots of cute indigenous curtains and has a picture of mom with the chancla. I was glad I stopped by. This will be a place I would definitely come back to if I'm in the area! Give it a try you won't be disappointed! ”
