My wife and I were staying across the street and spotted this little restaurant and gave it a try. So glad we did! Food was terrific and people were super friendly! We had the machaca burrito, a beef enchilada, soft chili relleno and pork green chili. All were excellent! We were there on a Saturday and we watched several bowls of menudo pass by to neighboring tables and it looked insane. Next time I'll be trying that for sure. If you're looking for authentic flavors and no frills, run to this place. You won't be disappointed!

My husband and I come to this families restaurant every weekend we can. Usually in the morning or afternoon and have had very friendly conversations with some of the family members. I love supporting them! Their food is amazing! You cant find good Mexican food like that in Orange County. But for the first time I came in the evening, I ordered my usual and it came in record time. But I think we were kind of being rushed out. The food wasn't to the standards I get when I come early. Don't come before they close, you won't get the quality you would get during the day. I showed up an 1 1/2 before they closed and the quality wasn't there.

I give this place 3 stars for a few reasons. As far as the service goes it was eh, just okay. Nothing about the front lady's attitude stuck out and to be honest it felt kind of rushed. My family paid 13$ for a burrito with no sides and one of them came bigger than the other. They ordered streak and frankly it just tasted and looked like ground beef to me. They told me it was for sure steak but there's no way. My cousins burrito came undone and he hadn't even taken a bite yet. That's ridiculous. I got a chile Riano and an enchilada, the chile was actually pretty good but the enchilada was not. Cheap tortilla and barely any cheese inside. But wouldn't be disclosed to trying something else in the future.

Wandered in randomly because I love small authentic Mexican restaurants. Tried the super deluxe burrito and it was fantastic. Makes me want to come back to try more of the menu.

Tried this place today for lunch and was not impressed. The tacos were super greasy and not particularly good. The enchiladas seemed like they needed to be baked longer and the sauce was watery and didn't have much flavor. The beans were super thin and bland. Not a place that I will visit again.

This is the closest if not only REAL Mexican food in the peninsula. Super good. Not fancy just flavorful and to the point. The breakfast burritos are my favorite.

The beans and burrito was pretty good but the beef taste like it was spaghetti sauce with beef. Kind of a weird combo and not what I was expecting but not horrible. Just not the beef and beans burrito I was expecting.

My favorite place to eat. I really love the food and service and have been a customer since the 90's. Always laughter and good times from the staff and 'Carnitas hungry' customers(which I am). The bean and rice are like Mom'a and they have 'HECHO EN MEXICO' Cokes here
