This one of the best restaurants I’ve been too and it’s family owned I’ve seen some people complain about the prices of the food which is very ridiculous the prices are very reasonable I suggest those people to cook their own food if they can’t afford $10 but in all the food is amazing and the customer service makes you feel at home they may take a little longer but literally it’s a two woman show and that’s dedication it was not packed they day I stopped by so I ate with my family and will never regret it

I love this place! The food is amazing and the owner is super nice. Whenever I'm in the area I either get the chicken soup, mondongo, chicharrón de pollo with rice & beans or morro. If you're in the area check this place out. It has been renovated...it'd be great if it had outside seating!!!! Keep up the good work!!!
