Tried this place last night and I have to say I was disappointed. Im always on the lookout for a good local taqueria but the food at this place was bland as could be. I had a Carne Asada Burrito and there was nothing positive to say about it beyond the large portion. The meat was greasy and tasted a little past its prime, the beans hardly had any flavor and the salsa they used was little more than tangy spaghetti sauce. My stomach was upset most of the night afterwards. I hate leaving a negative review but I feel like I need to since I initially decided to visit based on several positive reviews on Google. Be warned. Youd get better quality food for a better price from just about anywhere.

Honestly the best Mexican food in the South Bay. Nicest family owned restaurant, the workers are the nicest people my two favorite waitresses names are Elizabeth and Erika. these two i think work pretty much all the time but even when theyre not there the other waitresses work just as efficiently. I love the tacos and especially the Jr.burritos. they also serve an awesome breakfast like they have pancakes, eggs, and even french toast. honestly the best Mexican food Restaurant in the South Bay. PS: the salsa is BOMB!

I love this place!!! You can tell when you just get in, the faces of the people so happy enjoying the delicious food at any time, but in about dinner time is packed, this is a familiar restaurant and always managed by the owners: Miguel and Kathy, very respectful and friendly couple with a team of enthusiastic staff providing you an excellent service. About food.. not even mentioned is delicious, tasty and fresh, from albondigas soup to beef, chicken or seafood. Dont forget to order a wet junior burrito or flautas this are my favorites."Such as where the food is the fiesta"

well, if you have a big appetite, they have this Super burrito in there, for sure will fill u up. I weigh 195 lbs, pretty fit I eat a lot! and that will do the trick. Also, If your ordering to-go they have $1.50 Chicken tacos & $1.50 Bean/cheese burritos. Ohh man! they are sooo good! And for like $6 if you have a big appetite, just get 2 of each & boom! itll do the trick! I do it while working, Ill just order it to go & eat parked in the shade while listening to Christian Radio- may god bless you!

Solid Mexican comfort food: tacos, burritos, flautas, enchiladas. The salsa, while made fresh, is average. The food is tasty and affordable and they frequently post coupons in the local ad brochures. The service is hit or miss as the servers also help in the kitchen. They have a huge parking lot as they share it with CVS and Ross. On Sunday afternoons, they sometimes feature live music. Since they only have a wine and beer license, dont come expecting to order a margarita.

We came here on a whim- best decision ever!!! Our server, Erica, was so friendly, nice, patient (huge menu& we asked a lot of questions) & totally attentive. The food was so delicious & fresh- we ordered a torta, tortilla soup, nachos, fish Veracruz, a giant quesadilla, burritos & tacos- each person raved about what they were eating! It was really affordable & we left stuffed & very happy! Will definitely be regulars now!!!

A pretty decent place for mexican food. I wouldnt say I was blown away by the meal but it definitely was good. I had chicken fajitas. The chicken was a bit thick but was seasoned well with a delicious sauce, some veggies, onions, and a side of mexican crema. The dish also came with rice and beans but they werent tasty at all! They offer many mexican desserts including my personal fav; tres leche cake.

It was early March, perfect weather on a Friday at noon. Had a great 2 hour lunch and enjoyable time on the outside deck. Really good service, steamed clams were great though really big, great broth. Went back fro brunch on Sunday with friends - also recommended.

Such a great find! I ordered the spicy fajita burrito and it was delicious. Very spicy! They were out of the jalapeño poppers and called. She was very nice, friendly and helpful choosing a replacement. The fries were recommended and still good even with delivery.

They lost our business, due to the fact the no dogs on patio after 4pm rule. No loss, the food is not that great. They better be careful who they discriminate against.

Pretty good Mexican food with a touch of gringo for the locals. Wet burritos are great and the servers are really friendly.
