That particular spot hasn't been used for a long time and used to have it another restaurant there that have very good food so I seen the flags on the outside of the building and I thought I'd stop by and check it out and I got a chicken fajita it was very good the place look clean

Fantastic!Have not had a bad meal.yet. Rosa is wonderful and i plan on getting through the entire menu.

Wanted to love this place. It's the old home of the legendary La Perla after all. There was only a couple of people dining in and the owner was at the cash register. He couldn't have been nicer. I asked about the old steam table operation that had been there forever and he said something about the old owners took it and he wasn't allowed to have one. I didn't pursue it. I ordered a carnitas burrito as that was as close to the old pork burrito that la Perla used to make, which was just lettuce, cheese, salsa and lots and lots of delicious stringy pork in thick sauce. Fantastic! I went outside to take a couple pictures and the owner actually brought it out to me. Fresh warm chips in the bag, a red and a green sauce in little plastic cups, the burrito was hot and professionally wrapped tightly in foil and was fat and heavy. I was so ready. I quickly torn off the top of the foil and had at it. It was...just alright. I was probably expecting way to much, but it was just kinda like every other regular burrito, nothing special. I really like the people working there and I will go back, but the magic just wasn't there.

It’s our first time at Lidia’s restaurant. We tried Lidia’s torta and thought it is delicious and the cheese melt in your mouth. The fries that comes with the torta was excellent.

Really good and tasty Mexican food. I visited this place mainly because I wanted to try their homemade tortillas. It's rare to find homemade tortillas in restaurants now a days. I wasn't disappointment. My chicken tacos with homemade tortillas were really good, and their green salsa was the icing on the cake. Staff was friendly and inviting. Definitely recommend!

A lovely family restaurant. The al pastor super burrito is one of the best I've had. So many flavors! And their hot sauce has a great kick. I will be back!

Delicious food!! Working down the street and found this place, great burritos, tacos, spicy salsa. Had the chicharron gordita, perfect!!

Food is great! You won’t be disappointed. Very friendly and inviting environment.

I got chilaquiles rojos with chicken on top and avocado ?,amazing taste reminds me of my moms food (authentic Mexican cooking).its run by a family the teens and parents so it was heartwarming very nice environment inside the restaurant,super friendly.i got coffee ☕️ that was good too and i also got a mint watermelon agua fresca which was so refreshing as well.my food was ready in about 10 mins after i called.

Tourists, come here. You won't regret it. Absolutely amazing. Food is fantastic. Service is top notch. Yelp led me here and I'm damn glad it did. Carne asada was seasoned and cooked to perfection. Pinto beans were the best I've ever had. Even the rice was fantastic. I ordered the chips and salsa with a side of guacamole as an appetizer. Chips were obviously homemade. Guacamole was textbook perfect. Don't be put off by the neighborhood. This is not a location that you would just stumble on to. Yelp with the help of Google maps will get you here. I found convenient curbside parking right outside the door. Most importantly, staff are complying with covid-19 safety precautions. If you're not vaccinated don't come.
