| - When I moved here back in June 2016, I found this place right down the street for me. Before I could get my kitchen together and cook in the hot summer weather, I came here to eat. The food is good and very reasonable, even with the recent price increases, the first in many years, I've been told. So, despite eating here at least five times a week for the first couple of months here, and being a regular since, I have never tired of this establishment,
In the past fifteen months I have eaten almost everything on the menu. My favorites are the tacos, the soups, the seafood tostada, and the salsa bar. The tacos are a bargain at $1.60 each. I love that they use two tortillas for each taco, ask if you want them with onions and cilantro (yes!), and that there are numerous taco filling options. My favorites are carne asada, al pastor and lengua. So, I get my three tacos with chips, hit the salsa bar filled with three salsas, radishes, cauliflower-carrot-pepper mix, and grilled hot peppers, get a horchata and pay less than $8 for a complete, nutritious meal. What a deal, and it all tastes scrumptious.
Another favorite is menudo, available on Saturdays and Sundays until it runs out. If you want some, get there early, This stuff disappears fast. I love when the menudo is made with tendon--fantastic. The seafood soup is also lovely, with all kinds of seafood, corn, potatoes and cabbage in a well seasoned, slightly spicy broth. It is one of the priciest items on the menu, but still a good value at around $12.
This place sells Mexican coke and other Mexican drinks, and has tap water for those who don't want to pay for a drink. It's frequented by primarily Mexicans and a fair amount of gringos. It does a brisk business, is clean and modern and has an extensive menu. Go in, get some tacos, radishes, and peppers, a Mexican coke, sit back and enjoy!
