Delicious Mexican food had the big portion of chicken fajitas, margarita on the rocks, and flan for dessert. I would recommend a visit to this quaint family restaurant. Waiter was nice and attentive.

Arrived for dinner service 8/17/24, greeted warmly by hostess and team. Seated right away, but was led to upper most north corner table upper floor. My wife, daughter and I looked at each other and was like uh oh. Anytime we've dined out, and placed in a corner always a bad experience. NOT this time, whew! Water, chips and salsa arrived a minute or two after we sat. Salsa n chips were addicting! Waitress arrived took our drink and food order not too long after. And was surprised how quickly our food arrived! Nice! Should add, my wife and daughter's first time and it's been a while since I've dined here. Driving in from Santa Fe Springs, but I grew up in BP. Go Irish! Wife ordered chimichanga (it looked so good), daughter had chicken enchilada (same, plate looked also delicious). I had the chicken mole plate. Now, I usually have the mole at various Mexican restaurants for years, the mole is usually darker and little bit of sweetness texture with sesame seeds with various kinds of chicken portions. From 1/4 whole bone-in to boneless breast meat. What I received was not darker type of mole nor sesame seeds. It was different, not saying it was bad. But it depends on what type of style the restaurant is, Sonora, Jalisco etc style food. I actually enjoyed the beans more than the main entree. I could have just had beans and tortillas and would have been satisfied. Beans are good! I'll definitely return with my family, as my wife and daughter enjoyed their meal. But I will not have the chicken mole, there's plenty of other delicious food on the menu to choose from. Portions are big, go hungry, cut back on the chips and salsa (if you can ). By the way, though we sat way back in the corner, our service was outstanding. I'd rate 4.8 out of 5 if I could. It was just the chicken mole, not a deal breaker on not visiting this long standing community Mexican restaurant establishment. Sorry, no pictures. We'll be back soon! The beans are that good!

I had lunch w my husband today. I was so hungry and ordered chicken soup, enchilada plate, my hubby got 3 taco plates w margarita. The chips and salsa were always good. The foods are served w hot plates, huge portion to eat one more day....haha. My first chicken soup has lots of carrots, celery, white chicken meats. Very mild and homey flavor. I had enchilada, one chicken, one beef. Huge Huge, enchilada covered w lots of cheese accompanied w beans, sour cream, and rice. Soooo good, my stomach was filled so quickly. Happy lunch time!! My hubby got the same tacos w shredded beef. We were happy about the great foods, service, and warm ambiance. We finally relaxed here enjoying our fave mexican foods. We took lots of leftover for tomorrow. Chips, salsa, enchilada w beans, rice, taco, my chicken soup.... Happy day for us.

First time here at this location. I typically go to the Torrance location. We had a great experience coming in. The greater at the door seated us right away and the ambiance was just as welcoming. The food was just as I what I remembered it years ago and the margarita drink was right on point. Can't wait to return. Thank you for a great evening!
