    Came down here to get my car's window fixed after a break in and saw this little shop on the same lot with all the fixes. Looked on yelp and saw a mix of reviews about rude service, don't come here blah blah blah ect. So we ended up walking down the street to Don Chente's because honestly sometimes I let Yelp make the decision for me on where I'm gonna go next based on what's nearby.

    After the window was fixed, we decided on going next door and getting an alarm on the car.
    A few hours had passed and got a craving for a raspado. Despite the mediocre reviews we decided to come just try it out for ourselves.

    To our surprise, this little joint had a huge line of people inside. Tacos, burritos, tortas, quesadillas, Tostilocos, bionicos, natural juices..I mean the list goes on and a little bit of everything was being requested by their clientele.

    Quickly realized it's one of those joints where the workers are just focused on the task at hand and not even promoting their shop or asking for some yelp reviews. So decided to write this hopefully boost the rating here because for one, every single employee was very nice to us. Making sure our table was clean, thanking us for coming, I mean we really were confused as to why the ratings were bad.

    The majority of clientele they get here are old school parents who probably don't even know about yelp, and young teens who are too busy on IG. I'm all for helping little businesses like this where you see everybody working hard and trying to satisfy their guests. And I'm not talking about full on 5 star butler services or a server doing table checks. It ain't that type of joint. Just your traditional mexican snacks and sweets cafe where the women who not only take your orders, go get your drinks, make your order and so on.

    Overall, we really enjoyed the atmosphere here, our snacks and raspados were very tasty and we wished we would've came here instead of walking down to Don Chente and spending $70 lol

    Oh man everything about this place was delicious. I ordered a taco de buche! So delicious!! And el duro was great but I think they should have like a homemade salsa para el duro instead of Valentina. But that just my preference. The rest is just great!!
