" My family loves Grandma's Tamales! Every Sunday we come here for brunch, and we enjoy trying different dishes. The lengua tacos are a family favorite, and their breakfast specials are always worth it. Plus, the staff remembers us, which feels nice. Highly recommend it! " (*Curated Review*)

" In love with this spot! Their taco Tuesday is incredible—with excellent varieties and even better prices. I always leave feeling satisfied without breaking the bank. Highly recommend trying the carne asada tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has potential, but my recent experience left me wanting more. My black bean burrito was bland, and the chips tasted stale. The service was friendly but couldn't compensate for the mediocre food. " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, I was expecting more after seeing so many positive reviews. The chicken enchiladas were just okay, and the rice seemed overcooked. The ambiance was nice, but my overall experience didn't meet my expectations. " (*Curated Review*)

" What a find! The menu offers so many authentic dishes! I particularly loved the campechano burrito. The hand-made tortillas are a game-changer. The atmosphere is family-friendly and inviting! " (*Curated Review*)

Archived Reviews (1105)

" I really wanted to love this place given the rave reviews, but I found the food to be just average for Mexican cuisine. I tried the chilaquiles, which didn't impress me much—lacked flavor. The margarita was also underwhelming. I might give it another shot since others seem to enjoy it more. " (*Curated Review*)

" Recently had lunch here and was pleasantly surprised. I ordered a beef burrito and it was gigantic! So much flavor packed into every bite! The staff were friendly and the place was clean. I loved the salsa they offered with the chips. It’s a must-try for anyone in the area craving solid Mexican food. " (*Curated Review*)
