Fresh, Tasty, Authentic, Can't get enough of, Mexican food. I highly recommend this place. If you don't like spicy food, they'll make it non-spicy for you.

Best authentic Mexican restaurant! The food is to die for! I may be exaggerating a bit, but you give it a try and tell me otherwise. Let's just say I eat there at least twice a month. I don't even look at the menu. I walk in...give the big man (Mucio) and his mother a hug...sit down...stuff my face...laugh a bit with Mucio and his mother...and walk out a fat and happy camper.

- Very Good #30047
I came here for dinner last night. I've been here before and surprised that there isn't that many reviews here on google.

I usually get tacos here. Either the al pastor or the chorizo. I enjoy the tacos here because the tortilla is bigger than other places. And they only use 1 tortilla per taco. The meat to tortilla ratio is meaty. I hate places where each taco is a double stack of tortilla and not enough meat.

Anyways, I also got the mole pablano which was the special of the day. I think my expectation for the mole was too high. The chicken was a older chicken, like a hen. The meat was not simmered long a slow. The meat was dry and chewy.

The place is small with 5 tables. I noticed they were really busy with take-out and delivery orders. They charge $3 bucks for delivery. I heard the owner over the phone. A place so small you will here everything.

The bathroom is right next to the kitchen. You can see all the action if you need back there.

I will come back here for more tacos. But might have to skip the mole and check out other authentic delicacies.

Credit card accepted here.

- Terrible #30049
El Shutdadoor is what this place should be called!

My first visit here, and menus were wrong, I got pushed over and ignored for Mexican and other Latin customers who texted, called in their orders and walk-in. I can clearly see the helper who was busy on his Mac computer expect every customer to be familiar with all the Mexican items.
This guy needs to be more courteous and helpful to non Hispanics. I had to walk out of there when my breakfast was getting prepared by the cook. I was disgusted by the attitude. Hopefully someone had my breakfast. Thanks to Google I found another place close-by that satisfied my hunger for Latin style food, and they were pleasant to non Hispanics.
