Ordered a family Mexican meal that I was able to pick up. Truly home cooked very marinaded meats that just melted in our mouths. Advise to call your order ahead of time to avoid a long wait
One of the BEST Mexican Restaurants in Northeast San Antonio Area! Honestly, I've been coming to this restaurant for the past two years and haven't taken the time to boast about how great it is! Let me tell you, the food is GREAT!! I've had a lot of the breakfast and lunch options that they offer.. never been disappointed! On the contrary, I usually find myself doing a happy dance because the food takes me back to my childhood days eating grandmas cooking in Mexico! The service is always friendly and quick! The restaurant is small and quaint but very homey! Come out and get yourself some great food!
Very good restaurant and good customer service. We come every weekend and enjoy the food.
This is my favorite place to eat in Converse my go to here is the pupusas plate but I've had almost everything on the menu and nothing disappoints it's all very very good and very reasonable, stop by and try it out you'll be a regular just like me and my family!
My husband and I love this restaurant! No matter what plate you get it's always good! Breakfast and lunch . The service is always amazing. The restaurant is pretty and feels like home!

Stopped by on a Wednesday afternoon for a quick lunch. This hole in the wall looks like a house and has a very small parking lot that was full when I got here. When I walked in, I noticed how the place was packed and busy with patrons grabbing lunch. There was only one server working outside the kitchen so service was a little slow. They have a huge menu with very affordable prices (I come from the West coast where the prices are over double what I'd pay here in Texas). I settled on a large menudo and a chicken puffy taco. San Antonio is known for puffy tacos and this one did not disappoint. The texture was surprisingly soft as I thought it would be a crunchy taco but I was very satisfied. For $3, this taco is also big enough that a few will get you full. As for the menudo, it came with two flour tortillas. The soup came in a big bowl and had a lot of tripe. The tripe was soft and chewy (in a good way) and the soup was flavorful and packed with spices. If you're looking for delicious Mexican food, this is a great small business option with good portions and prices. Perfect for a quick meal in an informal setting.
I took my mother-in-law here for Mother's Day and we were pleasantly surprised that such a good place was so close to home. A great menu to choose from; I went with the good 'ol "B12," otherwise known as the Chorizo & Egg plate. Wonderful! Good service, good good, and quick delivery made this a great little place to grab breakfast. Be advised that they are not open all day, though! Just breakfast and lunch. Enjoy!
