“The tortillas are still made by hand with a little manual press, right there as you put in your order. The cooking is true to tradition and honest. The food is so fresh and the flavors so excellent.”

"Handmade tortillas form the basis of the menu, which includes tacos, taquitos, chilaquiles, tamales, and a variety of sopes. The food is fresh, made right in front of you."
