I came in on a Saturday at noon for lunch. I thought I'd clear out one of my bookmarks and this place is just down the street. Not hard to find, it's right on the corner of 2 major streets, the building looks like it may have been a Taco Bell at one time. The place is small with about 10 tables inside and a drive through window. There isn't a lot of variety on the menu. They feature several tamales and combo-meals. They have a variety of breakfast burritos and a few different soups.
When I arrived the Mariachi music was blaring a little too loud. Another customer requested that the music be turned down a notch. The woman at the counter was very helpful explaining the menu items I was unfamiliar with. I ordered a pork tamale and a small bowl of menudo. My tamale was out first. It was good, but nothing to rave about. The tamale was warm not hot, and a little on the bland side. Some hot sauce did the trick. The pork was cooked right and was tender. The masa was soft not rubbery. The menudo came out piping hot with a side of corn tortillas and onions and cilantro for a garnish. The soup had a nice flavor but was too greasy. I could feel my cholesterol jump 30 points. I've had menudo that didn't have an oil slick floating on top.
I won't give up on this place just yet. Next time I'll try the pozole or maybe a combo plate. Today's meal was just average, but the price was very reasonable. Looking forward to another go.
