    Heard about this place from a friend a while back, and now we come here regularly. It's  delicious and authentic. One of those little hole-in-the-wall type places that you'd probably just drive by if you weren't looking for it.
    They do breakfast, and they sell little tacos for $1.25 each after 5 pm. I usually get the fajitas pancho; spicy and super yummy.
    We went for lunch earlier today and they have signs up saying they're under new management. Not sure when that happened.

    Edit 10/3/14: the food's still good, but since the management changed, I notice they've cut back on how much of certain things they give you; such as salsa, tortillas with your meal, etc. I also don't think they do the deal on their tacos anymore. They have started doing daily specials though. Only changes I've personally noticed so far.

    I give it a three because this place was once legit with good food and good service. Lately it's been bad service and the food hasn't been what it was. My husband and toddler and I go about once every 2 weeks and order the same thing. Well we went and my daughter ended up throwing up the food she always gets ( eggs and beans ), and we kind of shrugged it as a stomach bug. Well my husband eats there the following day with me and gets the "tres amigos" like he always does, and ends up vomiting the entire day. We shrugged it off once again and I kept telling him it was not the food we ate there. Well today was what changed my mind, I ended up getting sick after having my usual "chilaquiles verdes", and my baby ended up throwing up again eating her usual plate as well, I mean that's no coincidence anymore.. I have no idea if the cook is messing up and not being sanitary or what's going on, but after today we are saddened to say we will no longer be coming here.. on top of the food our waitresses have been terrible. The younger ones. The only lady who helps us if we need anything or even a coffee refill is the lady who cleans, and it's not even her job. The waitresses take our order leave the plates and we don't see them again. Never did they check up on us or anything. Never did they get us refills, nothing. We have had wonderful experiences here in the past and it's just not happening anymore. Sorry to see you go magañas. Hope you read this and call attention to the ones that need it. Thanks.

    If you love your food warmed up in a microwave then you'll love this place! The queso was from a jar and the chips were stale. We asked for hot sauce but they didn't have any. This was the first Mexican restaurant I've ever been to without some sort of spicy sauce. The meat in my burrito was over cooked and rubbery. The tamale my fiancé ordered was warmed up in a microwave. We should've known better when we walked in. The place is a dump and we were the only ones in there. DO NOT go here!!! You are better off going to Taco Bell. The food will be cheaper and better there.  The only bright spot was the server. The young lady did an amazing job. She was very friendly.

    I love ordering the carne asada burrito!  The meat is well cooked, fat removed no chewiness.  The beans are homade and the burrito is packed.  The price is right!

    Food was good. Nice prices for portion. It was a hole in the wall type place. Not super clean looking or updated. Atmosphere was depressing.  Lol. But it is what it is. I'd prbly eat here again. Maybe a to go order.
