Waited 30 minutes for a waiter to take our order. Waited another 30 minutes to get our check. Just not worth it.

The waiter hardly ever came by to ck on us. The food rcvd was incorrect and was not exactly what we ordered yet we waited a very long time to place the order as well as to rcv the food that decided not to return it. This used to be one of our favorite places but we’re not going back again.

We had to keep asking for our server!! What we wanted we didn’t get!

Honestly I don't know where to begin I have never met a manager so rude in my entire life. I placed a take out order for my family and I. I asked politely please make sure everything is in the bag. We ordered soup and other items. So basically I get home not only was everything soggy things were missing like utensils and salsa. I had even asked them to charge me for extra salsa. I called and complained and instead of him apologizing because I totally understand restaurants can make mistakes they get busy he answered rudely. I'm not sure how you're supposed to eat soup?? He disrespected me over the phone and he even opened the door and kicked me out when i brought the food back. I wasn't going to write this review but after being a customer for so many years being treated like this is unacceptable. If Corey the manager is treating other customers like this they are going to lose customers.

Food was good but took a long time for it too arrive hence the missing star. Was told it was due to a large to go order...

Margaritas, crisp and to the point. Sauces have that homemade feel. I had several items and the were all so good! Highly recommend!

This is one of my favorite spots for Mexican food. I came here with my husband on a Monday night for dinner at around 6 p.m. There weren't a lot of people at that time, but after about 30 minutes, it began milling with people. The restaurant has a downstairs and upstairs portion, so though it might look small/narrow, it does have some space.If you've been to the Joselitos in Tujunga, this one seems a little smaller, less decorative, and not as extensive (or festive) menu wise. You still get your chips and salsa. The menu isn't pages long (like the Tujunga one), but rather a long double-sided menu. The prices felt comparable to me with both places.Another thing to note, I usually am on the lookout for deals (like margarita mondays or taco tuesdays), which the Tujunga location has and which is displayed on their sign when you enter. I didn't ask at this location, but i didn't see any such similar signage. You might want to ask when you go. :)I got the traditional tostada with chicken. the chicken is shredded. It's a corn tortilla on the bottom of the plate, topped with beans, cheese, shredded chicken, shredded lettuce, guac, and sour cream. The tostada is huge. I opted for this instead of a salad since I wanted it to be more open faced (than a tostada bowl salad), plus I like shredded lettuce. This thing made me incredibly full!My husband got the machaca con huevos. basically, shredded beef with eggs and peppers. This was also good, but kind of felt like any other omelette.We shared a bowl of the albondigas soup. Basically a light tomato broth w veggies and 2 meatballs.Ask for the habanero sauce.

Went in the evening and had a seat outside after being seated by the host. Unfortunately there was no heater in the vicinity but it was a relatively mild evening and it took a while for a server to even come over or any chips and salsa to arrive. It also took a while for the food to come out which is not usual for this genre of mexican restaurant. Once the server did come out they were attentive. Food was good. I ordered a chili colorado burrito which was tasty and my girlfriend ordered the chicken tortilla soup, which she really liked. The only thing that I didn't particularly like was the drink menu, which didn't include any prices. That is a bit sketchy. It may be a marketing thing but not one other restaurant I have been to on Honolulu Ave does the same. We got the large house Cadillac margaritas which comes with a side shot of grand Marnier. It was large and strong and about $15 each. I'd probably go back but as a first experience as a local, this place was not exactly stellar.

Very good local place for lunch. Food is traditional Mexican. Good but not overwhelming
