is not a modern restaurant, and it has no intention of becoming one. This is a traditional tortillería, the kind that’s getting harder and harder to find, and that’s exactly why it matters. They sell flour tortillas, nixtamalized corn tortillas, fresh corn masa, and gorditas, all with an old-school, ranch-style flavor, made the way it was done years ago. No preservatives, no shortcuts, nothing industrial. What you eat here is real corn, properly treated and prepared the traditional way. The place itself is simple and old, but clean and honest. There’s no trendy décor or social-media polish. Just comales, the smell of corn, and people who clearly know what they’re doing. The gorditas are outstanding, with that deep, authentic flavor that only comes from well-done nixtamalization. This is

I've had better but can appreciate the hard work and dedication to making things from scratch. Small place, ordering is confusing but easy enough. Very hot so be prepared. Definitely a must try

The tortillas here are so delicious and yummy. They are hand made to order. I didn’t really care for the chicharron but the guisado and barbacoa were sooo good ! The Gordita is too thick for my liking but the tortillas de harina are absolutely delicious. There’s not really a sit down area to eat. You order wait and eat in ur car or wherever u want. I really recommend the tortillas like sooo good! Would go back just to get those lol.
