Very unassuming but for the locals that go here they wouldnt change a thing. This is the quintessential laurel local eatery... and that should be celebrated. Most entrees have excellent value and you cant go wrong with the fan fav sunken burrito dinner. Its enuf for 2 people. The chilli con carne dip is excellent - albeit overpriced. Wife who loves enchiladas gave them a 'meh'. Service is interesting. Not terrible but maybe not what your used to. Our chips that came with chilli con carne dip featured the bottom of the chip bag bits that most people would trash. Clearly an oversight on the servers part but that level of quality control is everywhere here. My $3.75 beer had over an inch of head... so it was likely about 8oz of beer. No big deal just not ordering s second one. In summary - this place is a gem but be prepared to have some extra dialogue with your server.

The bad news first: If your a vegetarian: Your meal will essentially come with beans, rice and cheese. There’s no sour cream, pico de gallo or guacamole included. My burrito dinner was $9.10. Inside the burrito was beans and cheese. The side options were beans and rice. I had to add sour cream and guacamole on the side. Furthermore , there aren’t any onions, tomatoes or anything. I believe the meat burrito is the same price as well. So, basically I paid 16.37 for something that I think should’ve came with more or been a little cheaper.The good news: Customer service is wonderful. For the food I received: Beans and rice. It was hot and tasty.Will I visit again? If I want to pay for beans and rice … I guess. However, although I don’t eat meat I’ll like to see other vegetarian options besides a salad or having to pay extra just to add options. After all, I like to eat more that just some beans and rice.

It's a tiny place with no flare but great tacos, a yummy sunken burrito, and enchiladas like your grandma makes.

We drive over an hour for this deliciousness! Hands down, best Mexican!!

Formerly known as Tippys, this is a historical place. Sunken meat burritos and queso with chips are legendary. Been a loyal customer for over 41 years.

Small family owned restaurants Love how it looks probably just like it did in the 1970s!Food is delicious and reasonably priced! A++++

Great hole-in-the-wall restaurant. Delicious food.Love their queso and enchiladas! Service was great... Fast and friendly.

Love this charming restaurant. The queso is unlike any you'll have. A great place.
