The food is what you expect if you were in Ocotlán and someone opened their kitchen to everyone to share their family dinner. Very delicious, remember Mexican food is regional in flavor and preparation, this is Ocotlán version. The menu is probably 15 choices including breakfast, soups and dinners, but what they have is prepared with love. Handmade tortillas if you're wondering. It has a large diner style counter with room for 20+ due to it caters to lots of single working men and that's why their prices are very low, but during the week it's not that busy. On the weekends it's packed with families, even at the large counter sitting side by side. The service is awkward at best, but only for their attention, once you have it you're taken care of. Seat yourself, they're busy. It's a hole in the wall, so just deal with it.

Good food, super spicy salsa ready at the table. It is a fixed menu and a bit of a dive, so don't be surprised of you get funny looks for wandering in.

Breakfast is just like home made. From huevos rancheros to nopales con carne and hand made corn tortillas. The only negative is that they only have instant coffee which you have to get up and make yourself, which I still don't mind BUT all they have is Styrofoam cups :(. The food is however, the BEST compared to ALL other Mexican restaurants. There's usually just one waitress and the female cook/owner. That'll tell you it's just like being cooked a meal at home with great taste.

If you enjoy culture, this is the place to be. They have televisions perfect for watching European or Continental soccer games, I love that. Food is excellent, I recommend the ribs. The workers are kinds and friendly, cant beat the price for value.
