Top notch. I've been coming to this location for over 12 years. This is some of my favorite food for Mexican food on 1960. The customer service is good. They stay open late. The food is always made fresh. As you can see from my Food pictures below, I've had a mixture of taco plates, breakfast tacos, nachos. Everything is simply top notch. Also, they have great breakfast place as well. I've never had a bad meal from here All of the customer service staff knows me here and they treat me very well. This is a hole in the wall spot on 1960 but I suggest you go in there and give them a try. You will not be disappointed. I am no longer in the area, but when I am in the area, I will always remember to come by and stop here and pay them a visit. They fed as well for the past 13 years.

Been regulars here for five years. Hands down the very best and cheapest Mexican food in the area. The tostadas are incredible, fresh, filling, high quality, healthy ingredients, and so cheap! The fajita beef tacos are also excellent - and so cheap! Don't miss their green sauce- it's perfection! They pour nice margaritas and the staff are so friendly, this is a neighborhood gem and we probably pick up carry out at least once a week!

I was craving a taqueria kinda of breakfast when I found this place last minute. Let me tell you as soon as we walked we we're taken care of from the seating to our refills to bringing our entire meal. Everything came out fresh to order and very tasty! I had the green chilaquiles with egg, beef fajita, and beans and enjoyed every bite! My daughter had the pancake breakfast with bacon and eggs. Please note they serve a pretty good portion for children plates. It is very spacious and they even have Karoke nights. I will definitely be back for their lunch and dinner menu!

My brother loves this place. It's close to home but I wasn't really a fan until this last time we went. Their ceviche has way too many Serrano peppers in it! But I did order the grilled chicken salad and the plate had orange slices all around it. The salad was so tasty. That's my new dish I'll order from now on. I also ordered the Berry Margarita which was good too. It was 5 de Mayo so why not? Irvin was our server and he was awesome!

I always Uber fajita tacos with cilantro and onions from here. My food is always delivered fresh and hot. The green sauce is better than red, but both are good. You can't go wrong with a quesadilla or a taco salad. Wait!! The Carne Asada La Perla is another favorite. Charro beans...simply delicious .I've dined in once and, it's a nice restaurant with a full bar. You're acknowledged upon entry and the service is quick!

I've come in a few times with my friend after the gym. It's typically on a Friday night around 10 or 11pm, so it's rarely ever busy around that time. It's a karaoke type of restaurant in the sense that there's always someone singing and customers will go up and sing sometimes. We've only ever had the steak taquitos and rice, I would definitely recommend them. We always add queso fresco and avocado and they're perfect that way. I would recommend coming in for a late night meal!

Hello? Houston, why isn't this place packed?! (Maybe it's more of a takeout spot)! I'm no expert in authentic Mexican fare, but from Telemundo on the TV, to the menudo, to the nopales (cactus tacos), to the music, this place feels authentic. Even if it's not, the food is fantastic, the restaurant is incredibly clean, and the service is great. I thought...key word thought...I could tackle both the supreme mangorita and la Adelita (since they both looked delicious and were on special for Latin Restaurant week), but I only ended up conquering one- the mangorita! The glass was the size of my head, and while I personally didn't taste the alcohol, or feel it, I'm sure it was just completely masked by the abundance of mango, tajin, and chamoy! This thing is dangerous in the best way- the result if a mangonada and a margarita had a baby, and the mangonada had the dominant gene. Adult candy at its finest! All of the taquitos (the mini taco kind, not the fried kind) were amazing, the corn tortillas were flavorful, and fresh while maintaining their structural integrity. The tacos are filled with flavorfully seasoned meat minus any tough or chewy bits, fresh cilantro, and slightly grilled onions. Additionally, the green sauce was fire, without being overly spicy. The quality of the food allowed it to sparkle in its simplicity. While a bit thinner than I prefer, the Chile con queso was nice, and the salsa was fire. Do a taste a hint of Chipotle? My dining partner said the torta was a win. Nothing we tried was a miss. I'll be back for the tres leches and la abelita for sure!
