  Food is good but not exceptional. Kids plates are $8! That shocked me a bit so I ordered a three item and shared it with my granddaughter. The rice and beans are very good. My husband ordered the flautas and gave it a thumbs up. They have a wide variety of menu items. Some unique. I ordered safe and got a cheese enchilada and ground beef taco. Thumbs up on that too. Two of the three plates they brought us were badly chipped. The waitress never returned for refills of our water. We will go back if we don't feel like driving very far but will probably pick another place first.

  Sunday Brunch was very relaxing. Chili Verde was delicious. Pasole was good. Pretty good variety. Apparently you have to ask for waffles and you only get half a waffle. The sign listed chilliquilles , but I did not see any. The server that seated us did not tell us we had to ask and the servers were not around. We had to look for them. Three stars for food, no stars for service.

  The food is really great! I've tried many things on the menu and have never been disappointed. They have a lunch buffet during the week with some great street tacos. The staff is friendly, though sometimes a little hard to catch during busier times. Not enough to stop me from going, though!
