OMG everything was so delicious. I'm coming back to try out the entire menu. The man serving us was a delightful man. The lady Raquel in charge was very charming. The staff 100% professional.

Absolutely one of the best authentic Mexican food in LA. We dined here first time and were so excited to have found this gem. Easy parking, good size restaurant even if you have big party. I'm very familiar with Mexican food and been to many restaurants, large and small and this one feels just right. Small town restaurant but taste like a gourmet high class place. We tried the pozole and the pork ribs with cactus. Both were out of this world! Very tasty, very good portion. Not too large where you can't finish and have to pack to go. The pozole was cooked to perfection. The pork ribs just melts in your mouth, it went very well with cactus and the sauce. Their cocktails are just as fantastic. Service was like family style. Nothing too fancy but very attentive. You must try it. You won't be disappointed.

A Hidden Gem for Authentic Mexican Cuisine I can’t say enough good things about this amazing restaurant. Their enchiladas, paired with flavorful rice, beans, and a fresh side salad, are truly the best I’ve had. The atmosphere is inviting, with great vibes that make every visit enjoyable. Whether you’re stopping by for a meal or attending one of their lively karaoke nights, this place has something for everyone. They also host events, making it a fantastic spot for celebrations. I always leave delighted and highly recommend it to anyone looking for delicious food and a memorable experience.

Thanks to my sister Pamela for her lunch recommendation. We had a great lunch and the food was delicious and their service was excellent. My Wife, my Sister, her two sons and my nephew’s wife. We were preparing for our Dad’s Family viewing that afternoon at Oakdale Memorial Park. We celebrated a life well lived for Clifton Glass the following day.

Drove from LA all the way to Covina to this delicious hidden jam. The mango margarita is the delicious but the best is the Quesabirria. The Consome and quesabirria is the best, tried this dish somewhere else and this is exceptionally good. You must give yourself the opportunity to try them here you will not regret it. Aside from that you will have the best experience as the staff is so attentive and nice, the decoration festive and fun. Don’t miss it.
