Overall it was delicious. We ordered beef fajitas that came with freshly made tortillas, beef tacoes, and some guac and chips. It was delicious. The food portions were generous (we couldn't finish it and took a take home box) and the prices are great. Very clean, nice atmosphere, great music. The waitresses are kind if you are kind and want you to have a great meal. I definitely recommend this place if you are looking for some good authentic Mexican cuisine.

The experience was bad, because the server was rude and not friendly. The guacamole took forever to come and the pastor tacos tasted nothing like pastor and they also took a really long time, not worth the money

Tenebroso Hold the Flies. I came in here with my kids because I saw the reviews were a 4 star. I don't know who can give more than 1 star to this place. 1st of all, the oil that is used for the fish is used for everything else. please, change the oil. It is not just fish infused, but also tastes like its been in that fryer for over a year. El sabor se confunde con las moscas que le dan la vuelta a la comida en la mesa. Secondly, the prices on the menu are wrongly marked. The menu picture states 22 is carne asada for 11.50 while its really 16.50 under No. 23. Additionally, extra chips are 2.00. and, you get 15% net added on your bill for no reason, while tip is not included, so be prepared to pay around 80.00 for a cheap meal for 3. Finally, the margarita tasted like bathroom wash-water and rubbing alcohol with lemon flavored "rita" mix. I wouldn't go back there if I was paid to. Guacala

Good tacos, and Mexican food menu in general is good. Drinks are not their strong suit, not made but taste like it's straight from the box. I'm coming back and I'll recommend, next closest decent Mexican is in west palm beach. 2 thumbs up!

Great place very nice people the food was delish

The family and I had a delicious authentic Mexican dinner last night. We started with the guacamole and we agreed that it was the best we’ve had in a long time. We chose to add the spicy green salsa to it to add spice. My wife had the hibiscus tea and really liked it. She’s had their horchata during past visits and liked it, too. The kiddo ordered the chicken quesadilla sans the salad. It was stuffed with chicken and cheese. She said it was very filling. I ordered the small pozole. It lacked a litttle flavor for my liking, but with adding the lime, green hot salsa, lettuce, white onion and cilantro (which are the normal accompaniments with this dish) it was perfect. Full of meat and just enough hominy. My wife ordered the chicken fajitas for all of us to share. The flavor was on point. The tomatoes, onions and green peppers had the perfect amount of char. The chicken was well seasoned. The Mexican rice was perfect! Just like my mother in law’s and grandmother in law’s! My wife ordered a single pork taco. For us, it was not our favorite and a little dry. We should have gotten a carne asada taco. Finally, my wife ordered the caldo de res, beef soup, she loved it. She liked the broth. It was full of flavor from the oregano and bay leaves. As far as service, we had great service last night. There have been times that we went and the service was slow. This is one of those mama & papa’s ( mom & pops lol) located on Johnson Street in Hollywood. We love it here and feel it’s the closest to true Mexican food. In an effort to prevent any comments arguing about true Mexican food, my wife is 100% Mexican from Las Vegas via Los Angeles. We have done A LOT of taste testing here in South Florida.Just a tip- they are putting an automatic 15-18% tip on the checks with their new system. Don’t add a tip on the POS system, rather leave cash if you want to boost it to 20%. Although I think it’s wrong, I’ll still go for the delicious food

Food and service was okay. Portions are good but the taste was bland. One thing that was weird is that I ordered fajitas and they only gave me 1 tortilla for the entire meal. When I asked for more tortillas they brought them to me but charged me $4. The server should have mentioned that there was an extra charge. Overall it was an okay restaurant to try once but I won't be returning.

Foods good, just horrible customer service. Had a great experience the first time around. Just gets worse each time. Acknowledges everyone around except when i walk in. I’ll just get stared at. I’ll try to greet and to no avail, stares.

The tacos de tripa were my fav! Great tacos!
