★★★★★ 5.0 Glori Vargas · Jan 2026

The food was phenomenal. It was Pozolero jueves and they had green pozole with all the accompaniments and it was the best pozole I have had. It was worth the drive I took to get there and try it.

★★★★★ 5.0 Lorena Cervantes · Dec 2024

I went here for lunch, alone. I really wanted soup so I ordered their caldo de res. It was good but imo it had way too much epazote. If you know what this herb is, you know it can be overpowering. Other than that the meat was nice and tender, veggies were fresh and cooked properly, and the tortillas were hand made. They have a nice salsa bar with chiles toreados, chiles d árbol dorados, salsa verde, roja, cebolla curtida, etc. I will definitely be back when I am in the area to try their tacos and gorditas.

★★★★★ 5.0 Mozart Jimenez · Aug 2022

One of the BEST Mexican authentic restaurant in the triad! Very small and limiting sitting. Food is made to order so take in mind that some orders can take long to make, totally worth the wait time for fresh & flavorful dishes. 10/10 recommend their tacos dorados, enchiladas de mole, pozole (only available on Thursdays) and mojarra are extremely delicious and flavorful. This place reminds me of the mother land for sure.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Rachael Ponce · Feb 2026

The food was decent. Little overpriced but we are used to that. Service was not friendly at all. Atmosphere was EVERYONE staring at you and barely any seating
