Description
What appears from the street to be a basic corner grocery opens up inside into a full-service restaurant. Beyond the standard taco run, the kitchen turns out classic plates like cecina al gusto and bistec con nopales, alongside seafood options like pargo rojo. Regulars point to the quality of the meats—particularly the goat barbacoa and the spicy, fatty al pastor—paired with superb salsas and house-made avocado crema. It offers a sit-down meal with generous portions at neighborhood deli prices.
