No idea why or how I’ve waited this long to eat here but so glad I finally did! So close to 5 stars. If it weren’t for that horrible smell upon entering. But that aside, the food, service, drinks and view from the patio are amazing. Our waiter Berto, was prompt, personable, knowledgeable and professional. LOVE how they serve a side of beans with the chips and salsa which were great. We ordered a breakfast burrito with steak and the green chili on the side. The burrito is plentiful, full of flavor from the moment it hits your mouth. The green chili was delicious and I’d leave it atop the burrito next time I order it. The chile rellano was that perfect amount of chile flavor, loaded with melted cheese. The rice and beans both authentic as they come and tasty. The cheese enchiladas was simple but still maintained a satisfying taste. I was able to sample the Chili Colorado and that is definitely on my next order too. Thick chucks of tender beef in a thick, red sauce that boasts so much flavor. Ordered to go: OMG, the Mocha Cake is a must, light, just the right amount of sweet - divine. I’m craving one as I type this. My son enjoyed the Birra Tacos and would order them again. The drinks were on point. The only thing that was a major turnoff is the funky/ foul smell. Resolve that, and you’ve got it made all the way around. Pretty sure this is my new favorite Mexican spot. Try it today it may be yours too!

Felt homey and was beautiful interior! Had a lot of options on the menu, our waitress Olivia was very helpful when I let her know of my allergy and she made sure my food was allergy free! Very attentive and very sweet. I got the Mar Y Tierra and it was amazing! Seasoned well and very large portions! My boyfriend got the Colorado burrito and said it was an 8.9/10 very delicious! Had so much leftovers. To end it with the Tres Leches cake it was simple sweet and was the best way to end a meal. 100% recommend and we believe we found our new spot!

The portions are huge The food is great. The flavor not overly spicy perfect blend. The size of the plate is like giant frisbee. Bigger than a steering wheel. So if you're a couple you probably only need to order one plate of food. This is is a buffet they just don't advertise it as one. We forgot our to-go boxes and the man brought it to our car excellent service.
