Locals recommend this place for a reason. Pozole is a favorite but must try other items. Lots of veg options too, but the carne option is generous. This place fills up while the restaurants around it are still empty. Will return.

A great place to eat pozole. Just try to get here early since the place packs with Mexican families. The interior is very rustic. The service is quick. A Tapatio treasure.

I had a bowl of pozole and it was delicious. Others in my group had tacos de chicharron and enchiladas which were made with homemade tortillas. Another had the sweet tamales. Everyone in my group loved everything. The prices and the service was great. I highly recommend this place.
