Love it! This is our favorite place for Mexican food! Our criteria is: 1. Salsa-got to be good! 2. Chips-home made. 3. Tacos-both crispy and street type made well. 4. Metal utensils!!! Too many places have good food but provide only plastic... what's up with that? 5. Not a chain. This is a family run business. Friendly and good values. You have to try it!

Never been here and I've lived up the street from them for over 15 years. Just went in to pick up a parrillada and a potato and bean burrito. My boss had the burrito and LOVED IT!--He is a VERY finicky eater. I had the parrillada and it was savory, hot and fantastic! Lady at the counter was very sweet and the food is unmatched. I'll be having the oysters next time. My only advice is that this place needs more light. It's a bit dark in there.

Almost like a Tarantino movie. A place made out of a Mexican movie. Heavy ambiance but very intriguing. You feel like you are lost in Mexico it’s a gem because you can’t find places like these anywhere in the US. You can tell the food will not disappoint you. Buried on the hills of Oceanside but it’s original.
