Classic Mexican Favorites Served Fresh Since The 1970s

Happily the food offered still has the hearty mix of traditional Mexican favorites with other dishes that have made it popular since its original opening sometime in the 1970s. “We dropped by and sampled three of the traditional dishes and found them tasty and freshly prepared. We noticed the latter since our choices of a chile verde omelet, a combo plate with cheese enchilada and a chile relleno, and tilapia a la plancha took 15 minutes or so to appear. But when they did, they were worth the wait.” - THE VC STAR
