    My friend recommended this place to me. She started to eat here before it moved from the airport and the quality did not diminish!

    This is mom and pop restaurant where Rosa cooks everything in the back and the receipes are from her father being passed down. Also, Vivian, her daughter, was a great host/waitress/runner!

    We ordered the asada and Carnitas plate (to be shared with two people). Both the pork ribs and beef were beautifully tender and full of flavor!

    Be warned Rosa cooks everything, so if you're waiting a while just know it's well worth it! Great quality food and huge portions!

    Definitely a Calexico gem!

    DELICIOUS!!! The carnitas is the best I've ever had!!! Soooo moist!! A must try. Enchilada sauce is sooo good and fresh and so is the guacamole! salsa has great flavor, but SPICY!! Excellent, friendly, welcoming customer service! Must try!!!

    This place was clean and service was extremely friendly and the staff pleasant and attentive. Food was delicious and the corn tortillas were homemade quality. I had the Carnitas plate. Will definitely be back to visit again when I'm in town.

    My husband Was flying us in his little plane down to Mexico for vacation. We had to stop for fuel and lunch - the closest place to the Imperial Airport is a Mexican place (Eating Mexican food in the US on the way to a vacation in Mexico, ah well such is life!).

    The salsa here is perfection - pretty hot - but not too hot and a little smoky with not too much onion. I loved it.

    My hubby had the chili relleno and liked it quite a lot - I had the (boneless) marinated chicken thighs - There were 2 of them - they were HUGE and very well seasoned - but had a lot of misc. gristle and bones.

    If I didn't have to get back into a teeny little plane I would have liked to have tried the rib eye.
