    Best in town. Don't expect chips & salsa, and guac and sour cream all over everything. Do expect a lot of Telemundo, soccer, pickled carrots &authentic, tasty filling food for a bargain price.

    Enchiladas combo was super tasty. This is the Mexican food I've found since moving to Washington.

    Taco salad? My vegan friend is scanning the menu for lunch. Lose the attitude and try a helpful suggestion. Esteemed local busy restaurant is best known for pork tamales, fish stew and mole poblano. Read more

    Don't be afraid, try the Mojarra. It's a whole deep fried fish and it is amazing.
