One of the most authentic and hospitable places for Mexican and Tex-Mex food and experience!

Authentic and really filling. If I have to recommend any thing I would suggest the tortilla soup or the enchilada combo. So good I forgot to take a picture. The service there was 5 star, please understand english isn't their first language and thats why the food is A+

Seen many very good reviews at this place and thought it would be a good idea to stop in before working my shift.
Food was okay. I had the enchiladas combo plate with rice and beans.
The secret is out…… my food was okay.
I would go back to see what else they might have that is great! We will see.

Some of the best Barbacoa and Al Pastor tacos I have had in a while! Came here on half hour lunch break and was able eat and pay and get back out to the work truck with eight minutes left over. The tacos are a good size for the price. The green and red salsa had a nice kick, but they were not overly spicy.

I had been to the other location once and it had been a good experience. Today, I visited the original location with my adult kids and three friends visiting from Germany. Like the other location, the simple and forgettable exterior belies a terrific gem of a restaurant.
The service (by Jocelyn) was very friendly and prompt and all the orders were correctly handled (even with special requests). The food was terrific, everyone enjoyed it immensely.

Service was good. Fast. Good chips and salsa. Food was good except my pork taco bits were black burnt. I'd probably go back and try something new. Atmosphere was relaxing 😎. Good staff.

Standard Tex-Mex fare with daily specials and a wide variety of choices on the lunch and dinner menu. Several choices of nachos, quesadilla, and tortas too. Drink choice is limited to soda and beer.

I was craving Mole and heard that El Secreto de Abuela has a few Mole dishes. I went during lunch time and got the #21 Enchiladas De Mole to-go. When I got home the first thing I noticed was the food was STEAMING HOT, which I was both happy and surprised at since most take out food is room temp by the time I get home. The Enchiladas were fantastic, the mole was savory with a little kick to it. I will definitely be back!
