I had a great al pastor super burrito. The food was tasty and inexpensive. Our server was friendly and helpful.

If I could, I'd rate food and service more than 5 stars. From the chips and salsa to the entrees and soup, everything was so tasty. The salsa was so fresh... we joked that we could drink it from a straw if it wasn't frowned upon. We got the chorizo and egg plate with flour tortillas and the carne asada plate with corn tortillas. While I enjoyed the flour over the corn tortillas, everything was delicious and flavorful! The rice wasn't dry and the refried beans had a nice texture. We took home an asada burrito and the albondigas. The burrito was delicious even after a few hours of being in the fridge. That tortilla, man... love it. The albondigas was comforting. The meatballs and broth were perfect. If I had any criticism on the albondigas, it was I wish they gave us more meatballs.
I wish I got the gentleman's name of who greeted us and helped us. He was super friendly. Lovely man to chat with. Gave us enough privacy but also was helpful, interested, attentive, and grateful for us stopping by.
The restaurant is small and probably easy to miss. It's attached to a liquor store and has bars on the window. It's a hole in the wall environment, but totally worth to go in. The seating area was clean and comfortable and they had two TVs on playing Mexican music and a Mexican variety show. The kitchen is in the middle of the room with a wall partition separating it from the eating area. Whatever they do to ventilate the food smells/smoke, it's pretty impressive. Also, paying with cash will save you some money, but paying with a card won't break the bank.
This place is a gem. Please visit these nice people. It almost felt like going to my friend's mom's house.

Outstanding food, service is excellent, attention to personal dietary needs/quirks. Best “hole-in-the-wall” restaurant within 100 miles.
