Alli Mexican cuisine

Review: Gorditas made to order, Refreshing Jamaica agua fresca and friendly service it doesn't get better than that. Their gorditas were spot on, not too thick where the maza is overpowering and their fillings are popping with flavor. Their Rajas & Queso Fresco was amazing the poblano peppers added a mild smoky heat which was cooled down with the queso and it paired beautifully with their spicy salsa roja. The Desebrada gorditas was juicy, complicated with onions and cilantro. Adding their salsa verde just elevated it giving it freshness and acidity from the tomatillo. Their sopes were tasty with the saltiness from the refried beans as the base then Alpastor which is their spin on it but still good topped with tomato, lettuce, queso fresco, sour cream and avocado. Highly recommend and hope to go back to try some of their other items like their tacos and tortas. Rating: 10/10 Gorditas: Alli’s unique maza pockets prepared at the moment. They take 10-15 minutes to be ready. One of the most traditional and authentic item on our menu. (Cheese, Sour Cream, and extra Avocado additional charge) Desebrada: slow cooked marinated shredded beef. Rajas & Queso Fresco: Sauteed Poblano peppers and Queso Fresco. Sopes: Three mini-sopes with refried beans, sour cream, lettuce, tomato, avocado and queso fresco. Your choice of ONE of the following meats: Carnitas, Bistec, Pastor or Chicken. Alpastor: smoked marinated pork

Wow, the food is absolutely incredible. The location will be a turn off for some, but give it a try, some of the best Mexican food in Austin. The prices are super low too. We feed a family of three for $20!

Probably the very best carnitas I’ve ever had anywhere! Love the way they crisp it up before they serve it

This place was amazing with authentic Mexican food, unfortunately looks like they have closed for good.

One of the best breakfast tacos I’ve ever had. Woman at the front counter was very sweet. Will definitely go back

The food was delicious and fast! Their Chile rellano is phenomenal, we will definitely be back!

Quaint little spot with fresh & hot food, friendly staff.

This has to be some of the greatest traditional Mexican food I’ve ever tasted and it’s actually affordable. Very much worth the trip out of the city.

This lovey family owned eatery has made it into the trusted weekly rotation. The primary draw has been their tacos, made with fresh corn tortillas just slightly crisped. They are well-filled. Their barbacoa and lengua will make your tastebuds ecstatic. Their tripa is fried (fried intestines)--crisp, delicious, and clean tasting without any funk. Their higado (liver) with its grilled preparation does not have a strong livery taste; it's cooked with onions and peppers, pillowy soft and cooked through. The chorizo and suaredo were also quite satisfying. The carnitas, though would be best paired with some of their salsa to combat some of the dryness. Speaking of salsa, their red one is great. Nice and smokey, with some heat, dark red and orange tones. This place has a few other quirks. Not everything listed on the menu is available everyday. Originally, we had come here for some caldo de res, but they didn't have any that day, so we went with caldo de pollo and menudo. Their broths are lightly flavored, but still quite enjoyable. Tortillas come in a choice of corn or flour--definitely go with the corn. That day, they had also served chips and salsa. Their refreshing agua frescas were horchata and hibiscus. We came back to try their tacos. Their lengua preparation has displaced the previous lengua best that had held its position for over 5 years. But if their lengua is good, their barbacoa is better. I also tried a smattering of other items on their menu. Their mole is adorable. Their enchiladas verdes is toned down in terms of savoriness and acidity, not quite achieving perfect a savory verde. For their gorditas and tortas, my takeaway is that they prepare meats very well. And what better platform to let it shine than their tacos. Alas, I'd like to say this place has frequently been in the weekly rotation for a while now. However, as of June 28, 2025, it appears that at this location ALLI has closed shop--the place appears to be empty--no more tables, decor, horchata, or register. Only their Santa doormat remains... I'm now uncertain what to do with my life in the absence of barbacoa and lengua that once had undoubtably brought joy into countless customer's lives. If ALLI's absence is permanent, then Austin will have suffered a tremendous loss to its culinary scene.

I ordered three tacos from them today--carnitas, barbacoa, and lengua--and I'm really impressed with the quality. The barbacoa is rich and oily from the rendered fat, but it doesn't feel heavy or off-putting. In fact, that fat is what makes it so flavorful and tender. The carnitas are perfectly crispy and absolutely delightful, while the lengua is cooked beautifully--both firm and tender at the same time. Their meat preparation is truly top-notch. Another big plus: the restaurant is very clean, and the woman taking orders is warm, friendly, and genuine.

This may be my favorite *real* Mexican food in Austin. I love taco trucks, and fancy "Mexican-inspired" food like Suerte, and everything in between. But if I just want real Mexican food that makes me feel transported to Guanajuato, this is where I come. The chicarron gorditas are incredible, and also cheap. The service is friendly. It's clean and nicely decorated. But it's also not fancy or catering to gringos. You can't go wrong here.

I've been coming here almost 5 years and they never disappoint!! GREAT food, my Mexican mom loves the gorditas (they are so big!!!) TACOS ARE DELICIOUS! The staff here are so nice, they definitely make sure your experience is great. The spot is super clean and very authentic! Overall, food is AUTHENTIC delicious, great portions, GREAT price overall! 10/10 THIS PLACE DESERVES MORE RECOGNITION!!!

Best and biggest tortas in town. You even get chips and salsa and see videos at the same time. Highly recommend this spot. You won't be disappointed.

The first time I ate ALLI was a pivotal experience for me, and that's not praise I endow on just any restaurant. It was a moment of elation, a tummy euphoria, peppered with a bittersweet sadness. The joy, because of the caliber of the food. And the sadness? Regret for the countless Mexican meals, years and years of which I'd recklessly squandered by not dining at ALLI. ALLI is a family owned Mexican restaurant located in a nondescript (& a bit disheveled) strip off Payton Gin. Do not let the exterior scare you off, like it did me for several years. You'll regret it. The first time I had real Mexican food, it was prepared by my roommate's abuela in the valley. It opened my eyes. I must have eaten 3 whole plates of carne guisada, rice & beans that night. I'm sure some of you gringos have had a similar experience. Most of the taquerias around Austin can't replicate that homemade vibe; they supply a cheap imitation, at best. ALLI is different. A lucky someone's grandma is making that food, and it tastes exactly like you'd expect. The gorditas, with their fresh made-to-order pockets of masa house their spiced & braised deshebrada, without that overpowering masa flavor. The crisp exterior supplies the perfect amount of structure for your fat deshebrada bites, all the while mopping up the yummy juices. The end result is a beautiful, glistening gordita pocket that's soft and supple without falling apart in your hands. Enormous and at $6 a pop you can't go wrong. I believe it's one of their standout menu items, and the proprietors themselves describe it as one of the most authentic items on the menu. You must get one as an accompaniment with your meal. They also have the best chicharron en salsa that I've had the pleasure of having in the Austin area. In Austin, I'm accustomed to a slimy mess coated in an ambiguous watery mixture, which I choke down due to my gluttonous masochism. At ALLI, you'll enjoy large, silken chunks of chicharron with some actual texture in each bite. It's bathed in a rich, oily & chile-infused salsa that fully permeates each delightful morsel. Unfortunately I moved away shortly after discovering ALLI and I have not been able to extensively explore the menu, but everything I've tried (bistec ranchero, molcajete, mole, chile relleno) has been stellar. It just blows all of the other small chain taquerias around here out of the water. Life is too short to eat crappy tortillas and poorly seasoned meat. Next time you're craving a traditional Mexican meal, come to ALLI. They'll serve you as if you're a guest in their home, and it'll taste like it too.

I'm basing my review solely on the Al Pastor tacos that I ordered to-go today. I order these everywhere and basically compare all on taste, flavor, cut, and tenderness. These Al Pastors met all of my requirements. They were juicy, yet cut into smaller than bite-sized pieces, which is difficult to do without overcooking. I ordered them on flour tortillas whereas traditionally they'd be on corn; but the tortillas were just the right size and flipped on the griddle to be still soft, with no crispy edges, yet toasted and pliable. Perfect. They were adorned with the traditional diced cilantro and white onion; no pineapple added, yet tasty nonetheless. I asked the bilingual order-taker if they had "creamy green salsa," which is my favorite to accompany these types of tacos, and she said, "yes," but it turned out to be simply "verde," no creaminess. I wished then that I'd asked for some red salsa to compare--oh well, it was not to be this time. The salsa verde was a chunky version and mild, tastier with a bit of salt added. I would definitely try this place again--I'd like to check out the mole, which comes Yelp-recommended. On the menu it just lists a chicken mole dinner, but I'm sure that they'd be willing to serve it shredded, in enchilada form. The restaurant sit-down patrons seemed to be enjoying their chips and red salsa on their table, but I chose not to interrogate them about their meal (this time). The greeters and wait staff were extremely friendly and showed me where to order "to-go"--Hint, it's at the bar counter register, not at the front door podium. Oh, and a last hint/warning: nowhere on the outside signage is the word, "ALLI," but it's the farthest storefront to the left within the strip center, and obviously a home-grown place, so please frequent these hard-working folk who make delicious food locally. Enjoy!

My daughter and I were on a quest for local, authentic Mexican food, and we found it here!! The chips and salsa: perfect, and the customer service was top notch! I ordered the pollo platter with corn tortillas, and my daughter ordered the carnitas plate. Everything about my dish was delicious, and the portion size was exactly what I was looking for that evening: large! The carnitas plate was ordered with flour tortillas: wonderfully flavored, but the meat was slightly over cooked. With our dishes, they provided a bottle of salsa verde... I could have eaten that by the spoonful! It had great flavor and a good balance of spice; both the green and red salsas tasted freshly prepared in-house. The restaurant is located a bit off the beaten path and could be a tad cleaner inside, but we had a very good dining experience and are new fans of this local, dine-in spot!

I work on Burnet Road and decided to try this place again and omg it's unreal how good this place is. 100% authentic hands down my favorite Mexican restaurant.

Authentic Mexican. Clean and great service. Mexican Coke. Delicious * 100. No booze, unfortunately.

Loved the food here !! Mauricio was our server he made our experience much more better here ! Loved it, food was amazing and great customer service We got an amazing and delicious plate and on top of that, our server was super friendly and he gave us a great experience here he deserves a raise or a promotion! He's really committed into making customers feel welcome.

Authentic Mexican Cuisine (Not Tex-Mex) Made to Order Gorditas "Texas Size" Beef Cheek Barbacoa (Le Creme de le Creme #Flavortown)

I had lunch two times there, service was excellent, always a smile always willing to answer questions about the menu. Food has an authentic Mexican flavor, not the texmex yellow cheese you find everywhere. I will definitely will be back to this place.

My criteria for a good Mexican restaurant is the salsa. Alli has the freshest tasting salsa around. 2 thumbs up.

I found this little hole in the wall on Yelp, and took my doubting co-workers along for late lunch. The place and location made me a little more skeptical, but I kept thinking these little mom and pops are always the ones that deliver. The reviews were solid, as well. The place was a home run. The chicken and cheese Ranchero enchiladas, rice and beans were great. Free queso with Yelp checkin was excellent, so we ordered more. Hot sauce was fresh and delicious. Some were happy with the mild nature, I could use more heat, and they had alternative sauces. I literally could not move for a few minutes because I ate too much of this delicious food. What a nice discovery! Service was attentive.

It's really hard to find a place with real authentic Mexican food but this place is 100% authentic. I've had their breakfast and lunch meals and I haven't had a single complaint. The staff is very friend, the food comes out quick and the environment is very clean, This is my favorite place!!

Upon entering this location, we were greeted with a big welcoming smile from one of the employees. Off to a great start!!! The place itself is on the smaller side but quaint and clean. It is not what I would call hipster or such, it seemed more like a family establishment. The decor - well ..nothing to special, but that is fine with us... we are here to eat, not stare at the walls for an art show. We were given menus and my husband ordered the Bistek Taquitos and I ordered the Caldo De Pollo. We were brought chips and salsa out while waiting for our meal. We dug in and I was immediately concerned that the food would not be too good. Usually, the chips and salsa is the deal breaker for me, if I do not like that -then chances are I will not be back. The chips tasted a bit stale and the salsa, well... it was meh... different - but edible. At least it was not a fire in my mouth. Out comes our food and I was pleasantly surprised when I tasted my first spoonful of the soup. The soup was probably the best I have had in Austin. Now, this is not the run of the mill chicken soup you would find in a Tex-Mex place, smothered in tortilla chips, cheese, and such. If this is what you want - don't come here for it then. But if you want the real deal - homemade and prepared with love -then you have got to try this soup. The broth had a subtle saltiness without being salty and in this soup were huge chunks of chicken breast, not shredded chicken nor dark chicken but HUGE chunks of white meat. This chicken tasted so clean and so fresh that I could not stop talking about it all night long. Typically in most places, when you order something with chicken, it is salty - I am not sure why, perhaps as a flavor enhancement, but typically chicken in most places tastes like sodium was injected into it to some degree. NOT this place - what a treat!!! How can I describe this chicken other than just fresh, clean, and pure? That is what I kept telling my husband - it tasted so pure. Another thing different, there was squash in this soup - nice big pieces of fresh good quality squash, along with cabbage and carrots. I do not believe I am giving this soup all the justice it so richly deserves. You know the saying that when you love what you do, it shows?? Well, those who cook well - they usually love to cook. This soup tasted like some sweet grandma who has been cooking this recipe for decades was in the kitchen just whipping up a fresh batch, like a family recipe passed down generation to generation. You could taste the love in this soup- seriously!!! Of course you get a huge bowl of this comforting yumminess and the usual fixings, cilantro, lime and onion. You are also given a little plate of rice and your choice of corn or flour tortillas. The rice was not bland nor overly seasoned, it was really good and of course I opted for the corn tortillas and was very happy indeed. They tasted freshly homemade. My husband ordered the taquitos with bistek. He was very happy with his dish. They looked like mini tacos with queso freso and avocado along with grilled onions. The dish did not disappoint. We were also given two more salsas which were a bit better than what comes out with the chips. I think we just got a bad batch as other reviews for the chips and salsa are good so we are not worried it will happen on our next visit. This is my new go to spot for this soup for sure. We really enjoyed our food and went home content and satisfied. Great customer service and the amazing soup will bring us back. Great authentic food and customer service is what you will get here.

So good! They recently reopened and it is wonderful. Great service, cute atmosphere. It really feels like a community spot. Try the chicken tacos :)

La comida no tiene buen sabor. El caldo de Res estaba muy desabrido y con poca carne y vegetales. Los chips con salsa estaban dos que tres. Los trabajadores estaban sentados en sus celulares detrás del mostrador. Precios muy altos para la "calidad" de comida.

Stopped in for breakfast on a Wednesday, pretty quiet, one other customer who was finishing up. Ordered 3 tacos (carne guisada, bacon and egg, and machacado). The tacos were kinda small and a little undercooked at first glance. But glad that they were, because I would have been really full. Each one had a good taste, as what yo be expected. The machacado was okay, didn't really taste all of the ingredients that I'm use to looking for in a machacado taco. The service is friendly and attentive. Will be back to try their lunch menu.

First impressions: clean, fresh paint, Mexican music playing, a tv with a soccer game, and an extremely friendly waiter. We saw some pictures people posted and knew what we wanted. We ordered the "Taquitos" (we got 3 bistec, 2 pastor) and Caldo de Res. The tacos: They were so well dressed with plenty of queso fresco, an avocado slice, cilantro. The plate had a deliciously grilled half jalapeño and thin perfectly grilled onions. Could it be better? Nope! We both overlooked the slight excess oil on the double tortilla'd tacos; the meat was not greasy and it was altogether delicious :) Caldo de Res: It was spectacular with fresh green beans, calabazita (squash), corn, cabbage, carrot, and plenty of beef. The flavor of the soup was to die for...like when you taste ramen bone broth except for not salty nor greasy! A couple words that I am fully behind to describe it are "clean" and "pure" beef flavor. It came with 4-5 fresh made corn tortillas (you can get flour too), a side of rice, and a side of diced onion/cilantro/lime halves. The only thing I could say is they need to step up the salsa game. The salsas need to be a little bit more spicy. They have 3. One comes with the chips, one green salsa, and a red salsa with smokey peppers. They all have good flavor, just missing the kick.

After moving back up to north Austin, I was bummed that I no longer had a neighborhood Mexican spot that always delighted (La Placita was my former South Austin love connection). After exploring the area, mostly various establishments on North Lamar, I stumbled upon ALLI, which was right under my nose, as it is practically walking distance from my abode. When I dipped into my first scoop of salsa I knew I had struck gold, being so fresh and authentic it dripped off of my chip. Then, my entrees arrived and my hunch was now a certainty. That morning my meal consisted of a chicharron gordita and bistec ranchero, and both were impeccably prepared. ALLI prepares their gorditas using traditional Mexican recipes created by the establishment's matriarch, with a menu disclaimer stating that they require at least 15 minutes to prepare fresh. Chicharron will never be the same for me, and I'll never forget how perfectly layered the textures of the pork skin were expressed! Delicately crisped with a hot, delicious layer of fat that dissolves against your palate, this chicharron is legendary! Proceeding with my meal, I was taken aback by how well-seasoned the braised beef was, not to mention how tender and juicy every ounce of the bistec was! Not only that, the service is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. This is a gem that will leave you with only one regret after you dine: that you didn't visit sooner!

This place is so great! They have an extensive menu with enchiladas, tacos, tortas, soups, and more. Everything we have ordered has been so good, even their chips and salsa. It's a cute family run business. Come by for the .99 breakfast tacos before 11, lunch menu specials, or their taquitos (small street style tacos). I'll be coming back soon !

We normally like small local places, but for us, this place did not live up to the high Yelp reviews. The single staff member was very polite. They don't serel beer or wine. Staff discouraged me from bringing in beer because it would encourage others to do same. My wife got enchiladas; today my she had diarrhea. I was unhappy because none of our entrees came with side dishes,, no rice or beans. I recommend to leave this place to the locals.

Doesn't look like much when you drive up, but man oh man are we glad we drove to this place. We were downtown looking for some REALLY good Mexican food, and we totally found it. Being Mexican, my bar for authentic Mexican food is pretty high, and let me tell you...SOOOOO good!! Had the enchiladas, a gordita, and my hubby had the torta and it all was AMAZING. Really, do yourself a favor and come here!! (AND if felt really good to be supporting a family business) We can't wait to come back

Not sure why the high reviews here. We didn't have anything near the experience but who knows, maybe we came at an "off day". I will say that the salsa with the chips was really good. And, the wait person was nice and friendly. But. I had the chicken enchiladas but all I could taste was salt, salt, salt. There had to have been a salt accident in the kitchen. I ate most of it because I hate sending food back. I believe that all restaurants get one chance to make it right. The first and only chance. My dining partner ordered a veggie platter which he said was 'ok' and he ordered tea but it came sweetened (very). He drank it but doesn't care for sweet tea. Lastly, the thing that stuck out the most in my head that was very preventable was the big water puddle in the hallway going to the washrooms. Yes, there was a yellow warning stand there *but* you literally had to step around the water puddle. No one ever took a mop to it and the restaurant was very slow at that time. Overall, we've had better and in Austin the competition for Mexican food is very good.

Had the Chili Relleno dinner - it was awesome!! The Guac was obviously homemade and simply delicious! If you get near here, you owe it to yourself to fine here. I will be back if I'm in the area.

Awesome food! Authentic Mexican quality .. excellent! Great location !!!! Service is excellent!!! Ample parking, on a quite street, neighborhood setting family setting plenty of seating... open late and lunch specials from 11-2

I was very impressed. The service was great and the food was excellent. I had the chicken enchiladas verde and my wife had the salad with napales. I will definitely be back really soon.

This is an amazing Mexican restaurant. My son took me out for Mother's Day. I had the Pollo Chipotle and it was delicious. I'm not usually impressed enough to bother with a review; but this was exceptional. Others in my party enjoyed tacos, El Pastore, mole. Oh, and the salsa is perfect. Give this obscure little place a try. You won't regret it.

Deliciously authentic Mexican food! Great prices and good lunch deals. They don't honor the yelp coupon, which is one of the reasons I went, but the food was very good anyway. Because the prices were so reasonable ($5.99 for a lunch), I didn't complain or push for the free queso. I'm looking forward to being back in Austin for this little hike in the wall gem.

ALLI won Best El Paso Style Red Enchiladas in the recent Great ATX Mexican Food Challenge! Talk about great! ALLI's red sauce is the stuff of legends. I am also addicted to their huge crispy fried corn gorditas! Thank you, ALLI!

Me and my wife were out looking for some food and happened to run a cross this place. We had mixed feelings on it based off the exterior look but we went with a gut feeling. It's like a diamond in the rough, just fix up the atmosphere a bit and perfect restaurant. BUT THE FOOD WAS MINDBLOWING!!! And for that price! Needless to say we WILL be coming back!

The BEST taquitos I've ever had! Seriously, I dream about the Bistek taquitos at night. Those cozy little tacos will make your worst day, better. Alli has the best staff around, the best food around, and you're a fool if you don't give this place a try! For real, go try it! I'll be back for lunch again soon!

Great simple home made cooking. The place to go for breakfast tacos! Tried the corn chorizo, sausage and bacon and all three were really good. Oh and don't forget the hot sauce ;)

the pastor and bistek taquitos are the and price is great too, glad to have authentic mexican food by us!

This place is awesome! Real mexican food and not tex-mex. The hot sauce is really hot but very yummy! The taqueitos were amazing. We will be back!

I was raised eating amazing mexican food. Surrounded by great cooks, from grandmas to aunts, on both sides of my family meant we rarely ate out. This has made it very difficult for me to enjoy mexican restaurants because I'm always comparing it to my grandma's cooking. So today we drove from Steiner Ranch all the way to this location at 4 pm. I just knew the drive was worth it the moment I got my caldo de res (beef soup). The flavor was unique and just what I expected from a mexican cook. See mexican food is not complicated, in my honest opinion. If you use fresh ingredients, lots of love and attention, and the right amount of salt-you will have authentic mexican food. The taste of my caldo de res was perfect. I love the comfort it brings once you start eating it. Of course it won't be exactly like how I make it but caldo de res takes a long time to cook-its a slow process, i like to compare it to pho. Anyways, the food is great. Yeah, the salsas are not great but I really think it's because they don't want to exclude gringos. Sorry, but it's the truth. Real salsas are bursting with heat and flavor and they are not always welcomed by everyone so I can see why they prefer to play it safe and include the majority of the population. I don't mind eating fresh tomato salsa as long as the ingredients are fresh but it's not "chile". It would be nice if they recreate their salsa recipe to reflect authentic mexican flavors. Like the ones where one of the main ingredients is garlic or maybe even cominos, yum.I mean, there's plenty of tex-mex restaurants with bland salsas so why do you want to imitate them when the rest of the food in the menu is f* awesome! Don't be afraid to be original and authentic. If people don't like your unique mexican flavors, then there's Chipotle where everything is americanized.

GREAT food. I can't remember the name of the gentleman who served us, but he was AMAZING. Very polite, prompt, and kind. I wish I could remember his name. He was a taller Hispanic gentleman. He deserves the recognition! The habanero and jalapeño salsas KICK YOU IN THE FACE, and I couldn't ask for more! Huge variety in an easy to choose from menu. Needless to say, I will be returning on the chance I'm in that area again. Very satisfied.

Let me start with the chips, cold, hard, almost stale! They would have been put to better use as a centerpiece on the table. I asked the waiter if anything on the menu was close to Tex Mex and he said enchiladas rancheros so I ordered that dish. I was not disappointed. The food was excellent and the service was excellent! I will return!

Hey there! There's everything good about ALLI Mexican Cuisine. It's owned by two sisters and staffed by them and their sons... you can't get more home-cooked than that in a restaurant and it just has that totally legit feel to it. It's so genuine and wholesome. It's also not pretending to be anything it isn't. I've had a lot of items on their menu (we live nearby) and there's nothing I wouldn't recommend. Real pastor-style tacos that are awesome, terrific Gorditas, super sopas... Love the salsas too. One item I can't recall the name of was just fantastic. Anyway, if you need a break and just want mama to cook you some really good soul-replenishing Mexican food, go to ALLI's. (Used to be called Mi Cocina)...

I love hole-in-the-wall restaurants, and this is one of them. Doesn't have the best decor, but boy did they have great mole! I wish I lived closer because I would be a regular. Great food, fresh chips, attentive service and good prices. Tastes homemade and it was. Give this place a try!

Phenomenal. Good taquitos with queso fresco. Both salsas good, but the hot is the jam.

Succulent poblano taco. Spicy nopalitos taco. Friendly service. I've only tried this place in the morning, but will have to come again other times.

Definitely was expecting something else . Food was good. You get what you pay for. Pombazo could use more chorizo and papas instead of lettuce. Tacos could be cooked a little more. Salsa with chips, was very watery. Restaurant was very clean. Very beautiful inside. Agua de piña is a no no . Waiters were very nice and attentive. Food could use more seasoning. Over all acceptable. Maybe just chose the wrong thing (:

HOSPITALITY AT IT'S FINEST! I was greeted by a young man, very polite and very attentively focused on customers needs. Great experience for me in customer service. The place is small and colorful. I had the bistek tacos. Very good and authentic flavor. I can't wait to be back and try more on the menu. Thank you for a great experience.

Really great food! 1st time eating here. Thanks to all the reviews. I ordered the carne gusada, hubby got the burrito. 5.99 lunch plates were good size proportions.

I stopped in today and had the Bistek taquitos. These tacos are delicious and served with avocado, grilled onions, queso fresco, and toreado. I also had some chips and salsa which were really good as well. The service was quite fast and my server was really friendly. I will have to come back to try other menu items.
