This was my first visit and I placed a to-go order for the two enchiladas combination with beans ($15.95). I chose one cheese and one shredded beef. I was quite impressed by the flavor complexity of the shredded beef. Typically shredded beef enchiladas are just beef but they include grilled onions and well seasoned beef. The included salsa was perfect.... not too hot.... the perfect level of spice. Additionally, the gentleman that helped me was pleasantly inviting. I will return!

One of, if not my favourite Mexican food place in San Diego. Food tastes amazing, good prices, nice atmosphere, lots of choices on the menu. If I still lived in SD, I'd definitely be going there a lot

This spot is a hidden gem in National City!! The food is authentic and savory. Short of going to a 5-star Mexican restaurant, they're food quality is top notch. A return visit is definitely warranted when in town. A++++
