This is a CASH ONLY! If on a budget and want good delicious food, this restaurant is a must. They have all kinds of Mexican dishes. The Restraunt is clean and feels like home. If you forget to pull cash, don't worry about it they have an ATM on site. The menudo was great, and the Agua de Mango was so good. The people are also so nice.

Menudo. Pancakes. Beans. Rice. Chilaquiles. Super good Oh and the bread for the menudo they don’t skimp out on. And it’s not smashed like other places. Up there in how menudo should be for me. . Only down fall is weekends only. And it’s small inside so it can be crowded easy. Was not crowded when I went. But a wave of people was starting to come.

I went about 1 week ago for the menudo. For sure some of the best menudo I've ever had. The vibe is truly authentic the minute you walk in. Very welcoming and comfy. This will be my menudo spot for the foreseeable future.

I had menudo here back in 2016 on a visit. It was some of the best I've had. The atmosphere was great and it was full of happy customers. The music on Saturday morning was such a treat also. They're so nice and genuine, the allowed me to retrieve my notebook that I forgot way after hours. So very grateful and I SHALL return! ...
