Delicious Gorditas! Beans and Rice are also really good! Good service. Friendly and very clean!

One of my fav neighborhood spots. No frills dining but it's sooo good. Come early or there's a long line. I love the guisado verde de puerco con papa tacos, they have a nice spicy kick. They offer several different sauces and toppings at a self serve bar which is a nice touch. Their flour tortillas seem fresh and homemade. You can watch them in the back with their tortilla making machine.

This is a local favorite! They proudly sell authentic Mexican food, especially their gorditas with any of their wide array of salsas. Be prepared to hear your number in Spanish. Get homemade flour tortillas or homemade tortilla chips by the bag. It's hard to beat their $2 tacos. I LOVE the white cheese they use if you pay 50 cents more- worth it. I wanted to try something different this time and ordered their enchiladas rojas con pollo. It was yummy, and I especially love the beans and rice!

A coworker told me Rio Grande is the best for homemade tortillas. I finally had reason to go. I bought one package each of flour and corn. Flour tortillas come in a plastic bag w/their logo, but corn tortillas are only wrapped in white paper ... wonder why. That's okay, I can place them in a food storage bag. Corn tortillas had to be fresh, they were still hot! Corn tortillas about as thick as store bought but taste infinitely better. :) Plenty of salsas to choose from, I selected salsa de molcajete. OMG! It's so good! Plenty of "kick" and the more you eat, the more you mouth sizzles/burns. It will be used up in less than a week. I also ordered a queso y rajas gordita (no photo) .. it was not skimpy and tasted great! Small store, sign on door about mandatory masks. No floor stickers reminding people to physically distance but no need since not many people inside when I went.

Stopped in for a quick bite while waiting for a friend nearby just to check it out and was pleasantly surprised at the freshness of the homemade tortillas. The were spanking hot too! which means they came right off the press in the kitchen, which you could see the entire tortilla-making factory process right in front of you. There is a small bar of toppings that you could add to your items, but I didn't see it until after I was done so that was a bit disappointing, but trying just the tacos themselves with tortilla and meat was actually an experience in itself to really taste the individual ingredients. Prices are cheap, and it's not a fancy place but the food was authentic and homemade, so it was worth the experience of checking it out.

I wanted to feel mad, crazy love for this place after reading the reviews. I like it, a lot. I'm just not going to marry the place. For you Mexicanos out there, here's the skinny after just one visit. I'll be back and will report further findings. - The corn tortillas have flour in them. Let's just call them tortillas híbridas. This makes for flakey corn tortillas but outstanding chips. - The Mexican "pink" rice is outstanding. - The chiles rellenos are filled with your choice of melty cheese or picadillo. They are beautifully bathed in a batter and fried but they come with no sauce! Still, at $7 for the chile, beans, chips and Mexican rice combo, this is a steal. Use take out and make your own sauce at home. - There are about six salsa choices... from spicy to "let's burn this city down." They roast their tomatoes (yum!). - The place was nearly full when we got there and nearly full when we left and this in the afternoon. Everyone there appeared to be Mexican. In short, there is much here that is worthy of 5 stars, but the place falters here and there.
