Description



This family-owned Broadway spot offers a menu built on daily-fresh preparations, ranging from birria tacos and al pastor to weekly favorites like chile rellenos. While the kitchen excels at these staples and turns out large portions of fresh guacamole, some visitors note consistency issues with complex orders. The experience is anchored by friendly service, making it a relaxed choice for a casual meal paired with margaritas, even if opinions on its exact level of authenticity occasionally vary.
