I had a great plant base meal off the menu, suggested by the wonderful server. It had breakfast potatoes, peppers onions and salsa. Frijoles, arroz and guac on the side with tortillas... Very good

This quaint Mexican food restaurant simply has the best food and prices in town. Their food is always fresh and delicious. Their flour tortillas and their menudo are also the very best in Brownsville. Claudia and her staff are always welcoming, prompt, attentive, and courteous. Claudia has added more menu items that have only added to the allure of this quaint Mexican food restaurant. Go visit them. Highly recommended. Kudos!!

Best priced food in Brownsville! All of the entrees are under 7.50. Solid choice — I love the Migas with a side of aguacate. The entomatadas are delicious too

I loved this restaurant! My Uncle Maco invited my cousin Ana and I to join him for breakfast. I had the Chorizo, papas con huevo plate and it was DELICIOUS!! The tortilla de harina was big, soft and so yummy! What topped it off were the 2 Mariachis that came to sing! Of course I had to top that off with my Mexican Grito!
