Good chicken burrito.
Decor very authentic but run down.
Service, helps to bring someone who speaks Spanish.
But if you can recall high school Spanish, you can order and get your food.
Food is pricey but the portions are HUGE. -

Their food is not worth it, I thought this place would be good. But truly I don't recommend it. The only good thing about this place are the whores that hangout here at night. But not even cause of that I will buy food from here again.

When I walked in the decor seemed to give me the impression that I would get authentic Mexican food. We ordered guacamole, carnitas and carne asada tacos. The carnitas was at least have fat not meat. The carne asada was bland. The guacamole had no heat to it and was also bland. The service was good. The waitresses are very nice. But I was hoping to quench my craving for real Mexican food.

Hole in the wall dive joint. It looks like a couple of cantinas I have been in Mexico. 8 walked in the door at about 9pm on a Tuesday night. Two couples were the only others in the place. Chips were a little old but the salsa was flavorful slightly chunky and had a little bite to it. You also get some pickled jalapenos and carrots and a second salsa that definately brings the heat.
I ordered the carne asada. Well cooked and well seasoned. Comes with rice beans and a salad. Plenty of tortillas as well. All in all a good value for $13.
Only negative is that they do not take credit cards.
EDIT: I went there the next night (only steps away from the hotel) and had the tacos de lengua. I'm sure they did not cook the tongue that day, but the tacos were fantastic. double corn tortillas topped with cilantro and onion, just as tacos should be.
The only thing that knocks this place down in stars is the price. It's obvious that it does not have the turnover to kick prices lower. Still, good food at a reasonable price.
