• 1/23/24Always amazing food. The Nachos DeKalb are the perfect blend of proteins and spicy and cheese. AmaIng for a warm pick me upon a cold winter night. And then the Tamales clearly made from scratch with skill and love.
Now couple that with diirdashgetting it to the dor still steaming hot. What more could you want in this life.

• 4/4/26Nachos DeKalb
Amazing flavor and generous portions. Clearly the best nachos in the city: crunchy chips loaded with toppings, well-seasoned, and perfect for sharing.
Enchiladas El Jimador
Packed with flavor and served with beans, rice, enchilada sauce, lettuce, and tomatoes for a well-balanced, shareable meal. Rich, saucy, and satisfying.
Beans and Rice
More than just sides — each is a stand-alone dish: flavorful, comforting, and makes everyday feel like a special occasion.
Summary
Solid portions, exceptional value, and consistent deliciousness in every bite. Highly recommended for anyone craving authentic, hearty Mexican comfort food.

• 5/5/26Chips & Salsa to Go are soooo good. Addictively delicious honestly. And they give you a lot for the price! I do wish there was a way to add extra salsa cups because I decimate the two containers, but it's still worth it for how delicious the salsa is.
Looking forward to trying them in person!
