This is the first time I come to this restaurant and I honestly didn't like it at all. Since it arrived everything was fine but then the waiter behaved very informally and was pressuring us with the orders and to finish they brought us different dishes and they were not what we had ordered. To finish it took a long time with the food and they were simple quesadillas with chicken. And also the cutlery was dirty. .........
Best Popusas I’ve ever had!!!!!
Was told my order was going to be ready with in 15 mins, i got part of my order with in thay time, and they forgot about my burrito! Waited another 15 mins for, a total of 30mins for food is crazy! And its not that it was busy, they simply forgot to make it..
Food is absolutely good but the service needs to improve went in put an order they said 20 minutes it’s was almost an hour only because it was a relative birthday and this is what she wanted very disappointed
Waited an hr for partial food, then after 10 more minutes decided to ask them about the rest of our food (tacos) waitress said she would look into which meant she forgot to place the order. She took the order wrong and was now upset. Took a while (3 requests) to get the bill. I guess sometimes restaurants don’t want customers.
It's the second time I come here and I absolutely love it!! The first time I came i ordered some popusas which where wonderful.. Now today I'm having the Quesadillas Gus and all I can say is that every bite is unforgettable.. the flavor is on point and if I were to rate it, it's definitely a 10/10 if you're planning on checking this place out you won't want to come just once but rather make it a weekly place to dine in????????
Simply the best tasting Mexican food in the area
Loved the Tongue dish
Great service huge menu good prices
Best L Pastore in the area
Food is overpriced But is good. Very different flavor from conventional Mexican food. Also they serve small portions, they could be bigger or add rice and beans for a $15 dollar plate. The staff is very friendly, and they help right away. Food takes a while to arrive. They usually play salsa and cumbia. And weekends they have a taco estation Mexico style, outside the shop. The food is really good. Lots of flavor and big variety to order from.
Also they only accept cash. But they have an atm inside.
If you want to try Mexican food they serve in Mexico city this is the place for you.
