Great hidden gem of a TexMex restaurant. We ordered a variety of different items from the a la carte menu. Everything was delicious from the crispy tostadas to the chicken and beef fajitas, even the refried beans and the salsa. Service was quick and the server was friendly. The dining room is on the smallish side but this just adds to the cozy and warm atmosphere. Perfect for a quick lunch meeting with clients, or a simple meal with friends or family. Don't miss out, try it, you will thank me!!

Stopped for breakfast tacos. I got potato & egg with white cheese and chorizo and egg and paid about $6. They made my tacos fresh while i waited, I didn't care for the chorizo (personal preference) but devoured the potato. Red salsa was good, not very spicy though and I wasn't offered green salsa. Definitely want to return and try the chilaquiles.

Excellent spot for authentic Mexican food! Service is great, food is really good and prices are more than fair. I'd definitely recommend.

My first time trying this place, and I couldn’t be more impressed. I placed an order for 60 tacos to go at 6:30 AM, and they were already up and running, efficiently taking orders. When I arrived, everything was perfectly organized, with each taco neatly packed alongside a generous amount of green, red hot sauces and condiments.

Wilson Guzman

I came in after a quick search for tacos on Google Maps and I'm glad I did. These tacos are awesome. They are priced well and the corn tortillas taste amazing. The steak fajita meat was actually better than the chicken breast. I ordered 6 tacos and they whipped them out in about 5 minutes. I would highly recommend coming here for a quick bite.

I used to come here with my mom a lot a few years back before I moved out of Houston. Now that I moved back, I’ve been coming a lot with my brothers and friends. I’m happy to see that over the years the service has always remained the same! The waitresses are always nice and attentive, love the food, the service and the “home” feeling I get when I’m eating here.

My first time visiting this family owned restaurant. I wanted a good breakfast taco place to visit. This was the place I chose based off the reviews and plus it isn't far from where I grew up. I ordered breakfast tacos, I was first skeptical about ordering a taco with eggs because I don't eat scramble eggs. But I must say, they won over my palate I ordered 3 tacos: (1) Huevos con Chorizo / Eggs with Potatoes (corn tortilla) , (2) Chorizo with potatoes (corn tortilla). The food is fresh and made to order! The tacos with egg was great especially since I don't eat scrambled eggs. I was asked did I want fresh pico de gallo, that is a plus! The owner and her staff were well patience with me ordering and great customer service. Thank you again! I already told my husband about the tacos so I'm sure we will be back.

Talk about little holes in the wall! This place is just amazing! Authentic Mexican breakfast and lunches! Their servings are great and prices even better!

Orlando Godoy

Amazing hole in the wall authentic Mexican food! I love places like these. My custom salsa and egg burrito with avocado was to die for. Very warm food with friendly waitress. Try their freshly squeezed lemonade too!

Luisa Diaz

Small but to the point. Great service, and the food comes out fast. You'll get full fast, most of the food items comes with tons of ingredients. The food is inexpensive and it tasted authentic. They also have "aguas frescas", the lemonade was the best. They include chips and salsa. They customized my food just how I wanted.

Rick Consolabe

This place is AMAZINGGG. Food was great and the people are very nice and respectable. You should definitely give them a visit.

Evelyn “Wendy” Spiller

I was looking for a good taco, saw reviews and went by. As a black woman walking in I was not greeted I had to stop a waitress. The one at the cash register basically ignored me until it was time to pay. She then went behind the counter and with her bare hands put my flour tortilla on the stove. Them turned it over. USED NO GLOVES OR UTENSILS!! I watched to see if she would scratch or wipe her face etc. couldn’t see how they put the items in the taco. Hmmmm not sure I’ll be back.

sven viking

The only reason I put the score down as low as it is. Because I chose this place thinking it would be more authentic. Mexican, but coming from living in Mexico for 7 years, the food is differently more Americanized Mexican. Not saying the food was Horrible or anything I definitely had worse. The staff was extremely nice. Give them that too

Holly Colotta

1st time here. Ordered takeout. Great customer service. Gave them a try, cuz the reviews looked pretty good. I would give them a two-star. Wasn't as good as I was hoping for. Was disappointed.
