A great friend of ours highly recommended this place, and we weren't disappointed. My honey got the salad burrito with shredded beef and I got the shredded beef burrito and both were fantastic. The salsa is homemade from what we can tell and it's super delicious. It's spicy but not over bearing, and it has a lil bit of heat that stays with you. It was definitely worth the drive.

I've been coming for years as a kid to adolescent. Recently I brought my girlfriend and she's brought her parents, siblings and friends. The food is good, the atmosphere is like a traditional Mexican restaurant setting and the warm hospitality we get from Arturo is great!! He treats us good and always have a good laugh or story to be told. I recommend this restaurant if your ever in the neighborhood or just want to enjoy a good Mexican delight.

Love this place. Family favorite, and we have very picky young ones. I knew it would be a hit the first time we came as soon as I saw the rice...if the rice is good, the rest of the food should be spot on. The beef taquitos are almost as fat as me - they are so stuffed with delicious shredded beef. My husband loves the shrimp dishes, and they are not tight with the shrimp. Good service, chill spot, great food.

Food was ok. I had two taquitos and they had no flavor. Beans and rice were good at least. Tostada was good. My wife had the chile rellenos which were good.

I've been here over 8 times now! Every visit is a treat for my taste buds, and my favorite dish is hands down the arroz y pollo. The salsa is fantastic and spicy, which adds an extra kick to every bite. The staff is always friendly and welcoming, and they make me feel like a valued guest every time I visit. The atmosphere is casual but it is truly a gem.

Fabulous and flavorful food. Everything I’ve had is excellent but I keep coming back to their carnitas. Order them crispy for an extra treat. Lard is prominently used - enjoy the flavor! It’s why the beans are delicious. The rice is delicious. Damn you guys. Even the usually forgettable sides are excellent. Don’t fill up on the chips and salsa!

Hands down my favorite enchiladas in OC. The rice is light and fluffy, beans are creamy and flavorful. Sauce and tortilla are perfectly cooked. Salsa has a nice kick to them. I just ate here the other day and I’m craving for them already. Service is fast and friendly. The margaritas are refreshing but on the light side of alcohol. There is always a wait. It’s a local spot and people from the neighborhood are always there. My best friend moved to Westminster/Huntington Beach area and still come here for enchiladas.
