Hidden gem on Madison's northside.
If you crave authentic Mexican food (and I'm not talking Habenero's...) this is the place! Inexpensive, delicious, fresh, tasty, authentic and worth the investigative travel to find their spot. I told you it was a hidden gem!
Amazing salsas- all fresh and homemade, real chorizo, and great anejo cheese.
Try the enchiladas (any) or spend the extra $1.50 for the empenada. For two, you can walk out with under $20 and have delicious leftovers for the next day.
Service? Pleasant. Helps if you speak Spanish.
Atmosphere? It's not a sit-down place (well, not really) so order to go as it's also a busy bodega.
Visit again? Absolutely! Compared to any other Mexican restaurants in Madison- or the trendier places that attempt to serve authentic Mexican food- no one else is even in the ballpark. Oh, and the Mallards ballpark is a block away for your summer picnic fun!
Thoughts during lunch? I wonder what they sell at the D&S bait shop (store next door) or who can reach the cotton candy on the 10 foot bodega shelf?
