I have eaten here at least once a week for the last 5 years. Such a nice family with excellent food. Highly recommend their Pozole, tacos, and fresh-off-the-grill chicken. They marinade their carne asada and chicken with great flavors. Some of the best local Mexican food I've found in Phoenix.

I'm totally hooked on this place! The people are awesome, and let me tell you, their menudo is next-level good. And don't even get me started on the bread—it's toasted to perfection and buttered just right. Seriously, I'd tell anyone to check this spot out, I'd even go to crazy lengths to get there! Whenever my husband suggests we hit this joint, I'm ecstatic. Like, this morning, I couldn't contain my excitement—I was dancing when he pulled up, danced in line, danced when my food came out, danced while getting it ready, and of course, danced while chowing down. And you know what? They never let us down, no matter how many times we come through. After a meal here, I'm always left feeling so darn happy and stuffed!

I was invited to meet a friend to eat menudo here. This menudo was excellent! I past by this place for years and the place doesn't look inviting but I tell you, I'm coming back not only for menudo but I seen their menu, and WOW! I know I want to try other dishes here. They have more then your typical Mexican Style foods. Go for it here you will not regret it. Plus the staff were nice and helpful.
