The carnitas are mouthwatering. Delicious fresh corn tortillas, too. I have it on good authority that the Los Laureles margarita is great, but I am too cheap to spend that much on a drink!

Homemade salsa is awesome, very fresh and flavorful! If you're looking for something a little spicy, the tomatillo salsa is where it's at.

Muy authentic Mexican with the best tortas in town. They stay open extra late so head here after a night out on Court Ave.

Something happened here... the food used to be so good and flavorful. This time everything was so bland. The chips were cold and burned and the salsa was lacking any flavor. Bummer.
