“ A very delicious roast beef, in the middle of a large market. Honestly, I had my doubts before going. I thought it would be a somewhat overrated place with a long wait time. I was wrong. The reviews are absolutely correct. It is a very good place to eat. I arrived around 10am, I thought there would be a lot of people, and yes; but they are super well organized and have a fairly large place for diners. I didn't wait more than 5 minutes and they had already assigned us a place to have breakfast. I ordered an order of flank steak with beans along with a delicious tamarind water. The meat was extremely soft, at a good cooking point, I didn't get any "leather" on my entire plate (which is always appreciated). The beans were somewhat diluted, but still, they were quite tasty. They gave us handmade tortillas almost as big as my head (each order included 3 tortillas) but, believe me, those 3 are more than enough. The service was also very good, they were attentive at all times. The prices are good. Maybe a little high because of the competition they have nearby. But it's really worth paying a little more, and eating deliciously. Only that. The portions tend to be large. So if you are not very hungry, the recommendation would be to order half an order. Or if you order tacos or quesadillas, keep in mind that they make them the same size as the tortillas they give in the orders. So better not take risks and order 1 at a time. As a last recommendation. There are 2 public parking lots nearby. One right on the side, and the other across the street. The ideal would be to park in one of those 2, since their own parking lot is very small and they most likely will not find a place right there. ”
“ Great steak, excellent variety of salsas, and quick service. Surprisingly comfortable. This is my favorite carne asada restaurant, the breakfast are also good. I haven't tried the menudo yet, but I sure it's great also. ”
“ Very good ”
“ Good flavor, well served, good sauces and the best are the freshly made handmade nixtamalized corn tortillas, it is usually very busy; but it's worth it ”
“ The best enfrijoladas I've ever tried, beautifully served with many toppings like salsas, radishes, and nopales; the pot coffee was delicious, and the freshly squeezed orange juice was pungent after a few hours if there was a long line, but overall, all the servers were very attentive; the prices matched the dish, and the arrachera was of very good quality! ”
“ The meats have a great taste and drinks are also very delicious! Unfortunately, because of the demand, they have a slow service. ”
“ Super delicious, very good attention and the service is very fast, very reasonable prices and the green juice is very good, I ordered some enfrijoladas with meat, I recommend them very well ”
“ The roasted and fried meats are what I have tried on the menu and they are really very delicious. The flank steak is very well roasted, well done, not dry. The enfrijoladas are with tortilla chips, they are a good size, with 2 I was more than satisfied. The beans are very delicious. The fresh waters are also very good and with several options. The sauces and accompaniments are very good and varied. There's a reason they always have people, highly recommended. ”
