Great experience!
First time here and really loved it. After burning 900 calories at the gym next door, I treated myself with an amazing taco salad with carne Al Pastor as protein. Great size and amazing flavors!!!!! This restaurant is must visit. Small and cozy and most importantly very clean. You can see staff putting effort in keeping it as it should be. Prices are competitive with a wide variety of menu options. There’s a bakery also where everything looks amazing, but that I will try that next time.

Amazing little Mexican restaurant with a bakery attached. Pan Dulce here is made fresh and you can taste it. Super good. The food here is also really well priced and the food tastes amazing. Lots of options and classics to choose from. The staff is incredibly helpful and the place is very clean.

I decided to give it a try after hearing so much wonderful things about their food, but the service is such a mess! It was my first time there and I was trying to order the 3.75 tacos. The man didn't seem to be paying attention to what I was saying, I even spoke both in English and Spanish to try to make things easier for him. I got sent to the register, and the cashier seemed confused by my order, constantly asking me questions when I was really confused by how everything worked. They kept putting the wrong order and I had to keep correcting them, they had to keep going back to the man to ask him questions, and it wasn't long before more staff members came to the register trying to figure out what I ordered. I realized it would take awhile which was time I didn't have, so I apologized and left while they shouted at me to come back.
I asked some friends who came here, and they confirmed that happened to them too. The staff really need to communicate better. I wanted to try the food but unfortunately the service just scared me away.

My hubby and I were hungry for a breakfast burrito. We wanted to try a different place - I was leaning more towards a bacon and egg burrito with hash browns, but my hubby was feeling like a chorizo burrito. I checked Yelp but couldn't really find reviews for a breakfast burrito at the nearby Mexican food spots, so I suggested this spot. There really weren't any reviews for a chorizo breakfast burrito, but I did see they had it on their menu, we decided to give it a try.

Unfortunately, it wasn't that great. We really couldn't taste the chorizo and egg. It was mostly just a bean and onion burrito, which really over- powered any other flavors.

I really can't recommend this chorizo breakfast burrito - even if you were to ask for 'light' or 'no onions', this would mainly just be a bean burrito, with some small chunks of chorizo.

An extra star for the pan dulce - it wasn't the best I've had but it was ok - fresh and they didn't skimp in the fillings for the empanadas.

Went there for a juice after dropping the kids off at school. The vampiro and jugo verde is what we ordered. Vampire was the best of the two but both were good and healthy option for a quick "Blended Bite" 🤭 we picked up tamales before but today we were being good. It's open for dine in and some tables are available outside as well. The restrooms are nice and clean. Lots of food options too. You can see some of their food items and thus love at first sight 😍. Great place for lunch. Next time I'm having a chocolate covered strawberry from the bakery side. 😋
There is plenty of parking.

Been coming here since they opened gave them 5 stars 6 years ago but felt very Ripped off today.. Ordered Carnitas Torta and had barley any Carnitas on it.. was mostly Beans and Bread.. That is

why I had to change my Review to Two stars.. I will be going down the street from now on to Los Reyes All of there food is Huge portions for same price and 4x the meat.. Good luck with your business just lost a customer of over 6 years.

HORRIBLE SERVICE!!!!
Called in an order and food was not ready upon arrival, new people kept coming in and ordering and were getting their orders same food which was Menudo amongst other things and we still weren’t getting our food, after 20+ mins of waiting just cancelled the order, not the first time this has happened but thought I’d give them another shot. These people have no sense of urgency…
