My go to whenever I crave shrimp ceviche. The food is always great, the ambiance is nice, service is good as well, even when it gets busy. If you like avocado and shrimp ceviche, try the stuffed avocado, I was expecting something smaller and received two little mountains of ceviche which was fantastic.

Excellent Mexican food! Ate here with a couple friends on a weekday. We were seated immediately, and they took our drink orders. The chips and salsa were awesome, as were the entrees. We would definitely eat here again.

Delicioso breakfast of chorizo and eggs. Fresh flour torillas with abundant options for hot sauce/salsa. Great and quick service.

Ma Lupe's is the kind of Mexican restaurant that I want every other mom-and-pop Mexican restaurant in America to aspire to be.

Always good! My husband and I stopped in for a light dinner. He had a small size shrimp cocktail and we shared the tostada plate which consisted of 2 beef tostadas, rice and beans. The tostadas were very, very, good. The corn tortillas had just been fried and they were crispy and warm. The shredded beef was tender and flavorful. There was a small container of warm, mild salsa, which was a very nice addition. There was also beans and rice. The beans are served in a freshly fried tortilla shell , shaped into a bowl. So cute and so good. We eat here about once a month and tonight the wait staff was as always friendly, knowledge about the menu, eager to see us happy, and made us feel like family. You won’t be disappointed. If your food is t what you expect, please let the staff know. They’ll m
