Description
Behind the counter of this neighborhood grocery store, the kitchen turns out a steady rotation of Mexican staples. While the menu covers the expected classics, regular visitors highlight the burritos, tostadas, and sopes as reliable standbys. The quesadillas come topped with queso fresco and chiles. The owners are known for their warm, accommodating service, though patrons note that the salsas could be better and the food is occasionally inconsistent.
