    Clean , reasonable price. Soft tacos are great with great meat. Enchilada was good also. And the service is off the chart. Eric is super kind and amazing

    Nice family-owned spot serving really good Mexican food at a great price. Personally, my favorite Mexican restaurant in O.C. The nachos were so stacked I had to ask for silverware.

    The food and service were great. I had the camarones a la diabla. The price for the food is perfect, you'll definitely get a great deal.

    Great food and friendly service. I had the chicken mole; it was delicious. My wife had the 2 item combo. She enjoyed it. Fresh homemade chips and salsa. Homemade tortillas. What more could you want? Prices are reasonable. And they have a good selection on the menu. Check this place out. You won't regret it.

    Called in for pick-up on a Sunday morning. Wait time was ~20 min, not bad. Had the breakfast burrito and the torta with carnitas. Both were fine but not great. The breakfast burrito was 70% bean - it was difficult to taste anything else. The torta was fine but disliked that there was only 1 slice of a jalapeno and the cheese was a block slice (was expecting shredded cheese to cover the entire length).

    Went here for the first time. I ordered a michelada to start off. It was just a beer and tomato juice. And when I was gonna order my plate the waiter say they were out of rice.... that not good.

    Thought it would be good but nope. Fajitas were dry, they put rice in it and it was burnt at the bottom. Wet burrito was too salty. The time it took for them to bring menus and take the order was absurd. Perfect restaurant for the white folks, don't go here if you want good Mexican food.

    Eric is always there with a great big smile to greet our group. He has gotten to know us and what we like to drink or eat. He's a special guy at a special family restaurant. We go there on a regular basis.

    The food was delicious! The jalapeno poppers had a lot of flavor, and very little heat. The pork had fantastic flavor, and was complimented nicely by the fresh ingredients in the burrito. The staff was friendly and helpful, with plenty of suggestions. Do yourself a favor and get the churro!
