Holy frijole! This place is amazing! Growing up on the border there was so much excellent Mexican food that many places lack what we are used to. Looking for a good place to eat in the area, Yelp reviews led us here.
At 4 pm the place was pretty dead for a Saturday but picked up by 5:30. We had a couple beers and ordered the Frijole de Amor which was refried beans and jalapeƱo cream cheese and more cheese you eat with tortilla chips. Mmmmm...
M ordered the carne asada plate which they season in house and grill -OMG. I had the 3 Amigos tacos - shrimp, carne asada, carnita. Each of them tasty in their own way. I asked if the refried beans were made with lard. The server hesitated, probably assuming I was a local health food nut, but told me yes, they were made with lard, the authentic way. I replied that I definitely wanted the refried beans then.
The best part of my meal was the Mexican Street Corn, or Elote en Vaso. This is such a popular street vendor treat along the border. This was one of the best I've eaten!
We will certainly come back. The service was fantastic! Everyone was friendly and the food came out quickly. Do yourself a favor and try this place!
