We ordered menudo and tamale de chicharon with green sauce. Yes, yes, yes I am happy, absolutely flavorful. We were greeted with a great smile and then handed delicious meals. The café de la olla was not too sweet which is my preference. Gracias Carmen!

We got our holiday tamales from here and they were unbelievably delicious. They were so filling, stuffed with meat, and the spice was perfect. Some of the best food and quickest services I've received! Love this place.

★★★★★ 5.0 Gianni Aguilar · Jan 2026

Amazing food, atmosphere, service, and super affordable prices. I always love everything I order. Would highly recommend the chilaquiles, sopes, tamales, and any of the agua frescas, but seriously everything on the menu is amazing. The service is always great and it’s so cozy, it feels like having a home-cooked meal at your grandmas house. I’ve lived in the area for years and it’s such a hidden gem.

This is a small place that feels like you're eating at your Abuelita's place. With authentic Mexican food and drinks. They make the cafe de olla in the clay pot. They even tweaked a meal for me to be the way I like it. I have been a few times and haven't been disappointed. Give them a try.
