it was okay.. nothing more. the place is really cramped with tiny plastic chairs (like in a classroom) and small tables to match. this didn't bother me much because i'm tiny too. the tables weren't sticky either, so that's a plus. we went at around noon on a wednesday and there were 3 people sitting there eating or watching the olympics on the television. the guy at the counter was really nice and spoke more english than i expected. he explained to us what certain things on the menu were and poured us two cups of water. from your tables, you can see the kitchen right behind the counter and it looks really big and clean.. so one star for that.
i took my mom here and we ordered two tacos and the highly recommended consomme loco (i got a junior size). all together it costed around 6 dollars and some change.. so that wasn't that bad. the tacos were the size of a toddler's hands (super tiny) and according to my mom, they were nothing special. the consomme loco came in a medium sized bowl with pieces of cilantro and onion floating around. there was shredded chicken and mexican rice in the bottom of the clear broth. now lets talk about the taste.. it tasted almost exactly like slightly watered down chicken flavored top ramen. i don't know if it's that top ramen is really good, or this soup is really bad but i didn't really think it was as good as other people said it was. after eating that soup, i'm left with a really dry and thirsty taste in my mouth. even though i got the junior size bowl, it was actually really filling and i had to force myself to spoon down the last few drops. for filling me up, i'll give it another star.
overall, the food wasn't great but at least it wasn't nasty.. i grew up with a lot of mexican friends whose mothers made delicious soup for us all the time, so that's what i was expecting when i came here. it's not a place i would come to again.
