I knew it was going to be great when I rolled up at lunch time and all the Tios were on their lunch break here. We got a caldo de res, caldo de pescado, and two tostadas de ceviche. Everything was delicious but the caldo de pescado blew me away. I typically stay away because I'm not a huge fan of seafood in soup form but this... This is my new holy grail. So fresh, tender, and I had to fight my dad to share his leftovers with me. Haven't had a caldo de pescado this good outside of Sinaloa. Can't wait to go back and try the 7 mares!

It's been over 15 years since I've had an amazing asada burrito and they have a SUPER BURRITO option, it's 2 burritos rolled into one, about the size of an average forearm and fuuuuuuu it's the best legit burrito I've had in a long time lots of meat and cheese just the right amount of beans and rice, they don't use rice as filler and that's key. Get a burrito and don't forget to grab a large watermelon aqua fresca, it's amazing! This place is worth it!

Everything that I have ordered from here is delicious. Today I ordered a menudo which is great for this chilly weather. They ask if you want with hominy and pasta. I ordered it with everything. It was so delicious the serving is a big portion. I definitely recommend it. The staff is very friendly atmosphere is great. The parking is sometimes a problem so I park on the Street. It's a must try
