Food was not fresh it tasted like microwave food . No flavor really bad service and it was expensive . Ordered a milanesa and a full fish dish . I will not come back again to eat their food again . Also did not like that they only accept cash and no debit card . Really inconvenienced if only carry plastic . More

Their michaladas are killer and a good price. Sauteed shrimp was good. Food was good as well. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was because it was hot in there. Hopefully the price of the michaladas will stay the same price as people start to learn about how good they are and good priced.

The homemade sauce! From scratch, they add it to their tacos and it sends a slow flavor to the taste buds that almost makes you want to devour the taco. Do this at home not in the resturant. The sauce is also for sale, just in case your own taco you make at home is ..bland.

This was my first time coming here. The tacos de asada that I ordered were delicious. I also ordered a agua de horchata and it was really good too. It didn’t have any extra cinnamon residue like other peoples aguas usually do. I would recommend. :)

  • Skillz (Tommy)

Mediocre is a pretty apt description. Taquito platter is not very loved, just unbelievably hard shells with dried chicken. Tacos are not bad but not amazing, and the enchiladas come with tomato sauce and store brand cheese, not your typical

  • Isabela Jackson

If there was 0 stars I would put 0. I came to this place one time and that will be my LAST. It first started when she didn’t take our order right and gave us an extra plate. When she walked over with the extra plate we were all confused and

Went there Last Sunday with the lady. Haven't been there since I left the eastside. Anyways We ordered enchiladas, the mixed appetizers and Menudo. Waitress got our drinks and asked if we were ready and said she would come back. It took her

This food at this restaurant on Capitol in San Jose, is absolutely superb. I traveled 3 freeways, just to get their food! Would keep doing it over and over again. The food is fantastic, the service is great, the food portions are excellent,

I ordered the fried fish. And it was really bad it was so over cooked the eyes had completely piped out. The tail fell off it was so Crispy. The tortillas were like rubber you couldn’t even hardly pull them apart. There was more bones than

  • Julie Sanchez

I order from this shop through door dash and when I went to pick it up with my husband they made a big deal. Then when I opened the bag to make sure my order was right and I had enough hot sauces and notice my soda was MISSING,they accused

  • La Princesa Salvadorena

I came in late around 1:30am. The service was quick and easy. The sever was very nice and welcoming. The food was fresh but unfortunately the tortillas for the tacos weren't warmed up enough. They were a bit stiff and cooling down quickly.

  • Paulette

I’m giving 2 stars only based on MANY years when I used to always enjoy the food. This used to be good (mostly). There’s always been a problem with non- Spanish speaking customer orders. Even though years ago I went with my x and he speaks

  • Helen Garcia

I recommend this place to everyone out there. My daughter brought me here for the 1st time,and I've all ready been back twice. The tacos were delicious . Only thing I recommend is that they invest in AC. Not only for the guests. Mostly

  • shikya belfield

This is my absolute favorite place. My experience has been great. I love the taste of my food. And this sounds crazy but even when they get my order wrong it taste good. So happy I found a place with reasonable prices and very tasty food.

  • Tania murum tacos Estrada

This is a real complaint from an actual customer and the owner saying I’m a fake is proving the the restaurant doesn’t care to investigate my complaint, there are other bad complaints because your doing terrible at your job and don’t know

  • RIS3N

I don't really post reviews but man this place was rough. If you want food without any flavor that tastes like it's straight from the can then you'll love it! But, if you're like me and want actual authentic Mexican food, I'd probably go

  • B Garcia

Food Quality has significantly dropped.... Food was soggy and not hot! Seems as the order was rushed! The cook didn't follow special request due to food allergy and waitress brought the food anyways.... Asked them to remake and they just

Four family members had a late lunch here while traveling and were very happy we did. The food was plentiful, fresh, and delicious, not greasy. Amazing homemade tortillas! Service was very good as well. Lovely people! Not cheap, but the

I ordered 10 carne asada tacos and 6 chicken tacos. I requested all salsa and onions on the side for the carne asada tacos, only cilantro on the carne asada tacos. The chicken tacos were to have everything on them. When I got home and

In the past I have had a bad experience with this establishment,but I didn't want to be that person to write a bad review. I recently decided to give this restaurant a chance again after some time,but I am very disappointed with the

  • Paula Ramirez

Horrible place to eat ordered food and there was a roach in the plate and when I told the person in charge “ he laugh saying he didn’t charge me for the extra meat. Definitely they don’t care about customers More

  • Un Known

Shop was clean. Staff was nice and courteous. Food was not the greatest. Meat was either burned or very old and oily(asada meat for burrito). Restrooms were out of service. Definately will not be going back.

  • Diana Castaneira

I give them a very bad comment since their food is very bad and disgusting I recently went and found a cockroach leg apart from that they are very rude and not at all respectful even though we are women

  • Ellie Rose

Me & my boyfriend always drive around looking for new Mexican spot. We stumbled across this place. Do not waste your money. No flavor at all.

  • Leivi Inc

Overpriced just go to MI Rancho more food cheaper price. I walk in one day and my order of rice is 4$ the next its 6$ make up your mind.

Great for what it is. Got a burrito and it was fairly large and consistent in size the few times I’ve had it. More
