“ What an incredible little restaurant! I had an Al Pastor pork Torta and horchata. Service was friendly, fast, and the portions were huge! Its definitely more of a takeout place but I chose to dine in and they brought everything to my table. They also brought free chips and different salsas ! Will definitely be back to try something else next ”
“ The banner out front isnt kiddingthese are the best tortas in Milwaukee. The Milanese de Pollo is not thin and stringy like it is everyplace else, and there is one called Chavo del Ocho hot ham and cheese, which is a comedy TV program the 1970s. Oscar put it on Youtube on the TV for us. Thats the service you get here. I cant recommend the show, but I dream about this torta. ”
“ GO HERE. Eaten in and gotten takeout both times the food was absolutely delicious and fresh. The people who work there are so sweet. Ive had tacos Mexicanstyle, guacamole, a torta, and a tostada all of which were perfect. Tamales are incredible and their horchata was fresh as well. I will say I wish their salsas were spicier but this is Wisconsin I guess! ”
