    Try the homemade tamales with a variety of fillings to choose from! But bring cash, they don’t take credit cards!


  • Description:

    • Although the term "healthy Mexican food" seems like an oxymoron, somehow these folks make it work. While it is a little off the beaten path, any restaurant that can make enchiladas, refried beans and tortillas low-fat, healthy and delicious is worth a visit. Your best bet is to try the tamales, the enchiladas or the chalupas with sides of Mexican rice and either refried or black beans. For an interesting twist, opt for the whole-wheat tortillas. Splashed with wild colors and funky ethnic decorations, the interior is small but inviting. The faithful arrive early for lunch and dinner to garner the best tables, with larger groups either claiming their space at the semi-private back tables.

      Take out was pitiful

    • First visit, likely our last. Our take out order was served on rather flimsy, flat paper plates which really weren't designed for it. These were place into individual brown...

      Heatlhy Mexican with a lot of flavor! Remember to bring cash!

    • The BEST queso hands down. Almost all the dishes are vegetarian, unless you get the chicken or turkey tacos...which btw are superb. I always get the guac. salad with balsamic vinegerette....
