Waiter / bar tender is rude and when ask what do they have to drink he just looks at the bar and said lots of mescal and tequila...then when u ask for a drink he just puts it on the table all rude as he's paying by.Mind u that there's only 6 people here would not come back again.But the restaurant is nice they just need a person with good attitude

Michoacan style Mexican cuisine Fair pricing! $1.50 tacos & every other item seems reasonable considering this is a brick & mortar not a truck The tacos, chicken & beef were clean & flavourful.The corn tortillas were delicious.Not overly soft or hard.Pretty straight forward Typically off put by being charged for chips & salsa but I will pay again & again here.They served what seemed to be basket of chips that would be easily annihilated but it nearly defeated two hungry persons that also had two tacos each.Nice chips, there’s a thinness to a fluffy crunch.Large.Just enough salt.A red & green sauce with tasteful kick.Their beans!!!! Wow! Mix all together, add to tacos, eat separately...whatever, so great The owners are very kind & accommodating.The only drinks are bottled including water.There is beer.Will come back again :) Thank y’all, with love from Texas
