Best Caldo de Camaron/pescado in town hands down. Been a customer for over two decades.

This is one of those spots I take visitors to and they initially think I'm crazy because of the strip mall location (but if you know, they are usually the gems). There are two MUST HAVE items that have a 100% OMG reaction from first-timers: The Fish Soup and the Fish Tacos. Get the fish soup with bread and sink into your booth with funny moans and smiles after every bite. Absolutely delicious combo of savory broth, spice, fish and vegetables. The fish tacos are cooked on the flattop and are the best in town -- maybe the best I've had in all my travels. The owners remember me every time I stop in and they warm my heart as much as their food. Support this lovely family if you can!

This place is a diamond in the rough. They might not look like much from the outside but they are good at what they do. Their food is amazing, flavorful, comes out hot,didn't take too long, and the prices are reasonable. If you want a nice quiet place to eat check them out!

Fast service and very tasty food, good volume for the price. Had the chili rellenos, big Pepe’s stuffed burrito, and a chicharron gordita.
