this place is more like a 3.5 out of 5 stars. Located right off the freeway, in the same plaza as gulf gas station. we ended up getting a lengua burrito and breakfast (huevos rancheros).Both items were about 10 bucks each, and they were really filling. before the food came, they gave us chips with salsa. they also brought out additional sauce (red and green) and i have to say, the green sauce is extremely delicious. i ended up using it for the chips and the food. it does have a kick, but not too bad. The huevos rancheros came with three eggs. along with rice and beans and your choice of flour or corn tortilla. The burrito was good, but the lengua was a bit dry...We also ended up getting horchata and it was pretty good. rich cinnamon flavor.Friendly workers and servers. Also, when you need to pay, you walk up to the counter. I suppose this place is "legit" in terms of mexican food, since the time we were there, we only saw mexican folks come in to eat.

The food was quick and delicious. The enchiladas, the taco plate the caldo de rez and quesadillas is what my family had. All the plates were empty. Will return!

I was in the area and wanted something tasty, so I tried this place. I got the taco plate with Barbacoa and two beef tacos. The lady at the counter was super nice and recommended the Barbacoa. It was more flavorful than the beef, so next time I'll get all Barbacoa. The restaurant was cute and culturally themed. I would have eaten inside if I had time.

One thing I love, an independent hole in the wall, serving excellent tacos. Two things I hate, crappy service and burnt food. I came in with my friend, early evening on a Saturday. It was not busy when we walked in, just three tables occupied. There were two women at the counter and no one said anything to us. There was no sign to seat yourself so we just stood there for a bit. Finally I started walking toward the women at the counter and one just said "anywhere". Ok.We ordered something to drink and both got taco plates. Chips, and salsa were brought out, and they were decent. No heat with the salsa but it had good flavor. Tougher we ordered barbacoa, fajita, carnitas, and tripe tacos. The only ones not burnt were the barbacoa and fajita. And we are talking black and crunchy, burnt. The kitchen sent that out. The fajita taco was average, but the barbacoa was actually really tasty. That and the chips and salsa were the only things worth coming for. The hot sauces were just ok.No one ever came back to the table, we just went up to the counter, paid and left. The prices are great but the service sucks and the kitchen doesn't seem to care about what they are sending out.

The service from young gentleman was great. My husband got a michelada and it was good. We both ordered Caldo de Res and it was horrible! It had no seasoning and tasted like they put water in a bowl and added the meat and uncooked vegetables. We told the waitress at checkout that we didn't like and didn't eat it, she just said oh. Very disappointed!

Customer Service: AFood quality: DBeverage quality: ALong story short...the carne asada was dry and tough same as the bread. The amount of beans were thinly spread on the bread. It definitely needed could've used some sour cream to give it some moisture. But honestly the sandwich was disappointing, so I scraped the topping off the bread added the salsa from the chips to at least have some type of lunch. Not a dish I would recommend at all.Ronnie's pick

Food was alright. Someone recommended this place as authentic mexican food and the food was alright, not amazing but the service made it worse. I finished eating and no one approached me until i got up 30 minutes later and asked for the check. If thats the policy of the restaurant then maybe someone should have explained that. Place was not busy at all and the 2 attendants behind the counter completely ignored me being there the entire time i was there. Unfortunately I wouldn't recommend this place.

I've eaten here dozens of times. I have developed a serious addiction to their caldo de res. I can't stop thinking about it. My coworkers ridicule me for ordering it when it is 100+ degrees outside. I try to try other things, but I just can't. The caldo is so delicious and so cheap that I am too afraid of regretting it to order anything else. They're just loaded with meat and fresh vegetables and so flavorful.

Friendly service and authentic Mexican food. The lengua burrito was flavorful. They bring out chips and salsa while you wait for your food. I'd recommend brushing up on your Spanish, it's not required.
