Quickly becoming my favorite Mexican food joint in the Santa Cruz area. Feels like home. Handmade tortillas, cash only, simple menu but everything is fresh and delicious. You can tell it’s super clean too. Might be the best horchata I’ve ever had. This place is the best.

Homemade tortillas !! Need I say more !! Tried the Al pastor, carnitas, asada, shrimp, and one more that I can’t remember… the shrimp was the best, but all were amazing. Cash only !! Lots of outdoor seating and a bit of indoor seating. Recommend !!!

Perfect place to eat. Quiet. Found a table immediately. I had the Manolo's Torta. Delicious. See the photo. My daughter chose the Carne Asada burrito. She said it was delicious. Tortillas are homemade. The place is small but very inviting. Service and food are awesome. The place is around the corner from Gayle's Bakery and Rosticceria.

Been coming here for quite sometime. Unfortunately, today we went back and they have a new young girl working who is extremely rude for absolutely no reason. The food ordering experience was not a good one with her and then when my wife went back to purchase salsa because we love the salsa, she was rude again and would not provide what she paid for. I went back up to fix the mistake because my wife was so done with this person, I was perfectly cordial and she was extremely rude to me. So, we will be avoiding San Marcos for now on until the teenage is replaced. Great food, but new staff member made it all taste bad.

The homemade tortillas were good. The Al pastor meat was chewy and I didn’t like the seasoning. The beans and rice were ok. It seemed like flavors or something that didn’t taste good and fresh.
