This is their green enchilada. It wasn't amazing but I'm positive a lot of people will enjoy it. You should get their Flan for dessert as well & check out their candies also

The best Birria tacos in the city, I go to pick up & order off DoorDash consistently & it's always amazing. They have amazing Horchata as well. I cannot get enough of this restaurant. This would be my last prison meal.

You know the feeling when you discover a great place late in the game & then you get fomo about all the great meals you could've had? This place is it. Get the quesabirrias & tell me they don't invade your dreams afterwards. If my wallet & waistband would allow me to eat here everyday, I would. Everything else they make is also A1, but those quesabirrias man… el paraiso aquí mismo. I would add photos but they're always gone in five minutes.
