Everything I've ever ordered has been amazing. Today I had the consomme, my husband had a taco salad. My soup was so rich and delicious. I cant wait to go back for more. It's simple and fresh and reminds me of my grandma's cooking. It's a very special restaurant.

One of the top three most authentic Mexican foods in all of Santa Cruz county!! The suadero (beef brisket) tacos are off the hook. Knowing a bit of Spanish doesn't hurt. I HIGHLY recommend this place. I'm actually hesitant to give a review because I don't want my "gringo" secret to possibly have an affect on availability. Five stars easy. I'm guessing any and ALL one and two star reviews are from other local competition. Relax mi amigos, there's plenty of people and food so that everyone can be happy.
