I ordered it through the phone and I got 3 sopes 2 of them carne asada and 1 of the tripas, for sure one of the best sopes I've tried in Morgan hill and once I got to pick up my food, it was already ready.

This place is slept on! My family and I love this place! My favorite is the Chile verde burrito! So fire. I love learning from the Spanish speaking ladies to order my food. Definitely, language barrier, but I love it!! Great authentic learning experience. That's part of the fun of going to a little whole in the wall that has your grandma & aunty vibes making food out of love. The food takes a while to make because it's from their hearts. So order ahead or enjoy the show.

I have ordered same thing 3 times and I got to tell you, delicious. Chilaquiles (mild spice, little kick to it), eggs (over medium), rice and beans & Mexican cheese. Now I haven't tried anything else but this plate is good and at times I have made two meals out of it. Hope to try other things in the menu and let you guys know. But definitely beats me having to make them at home. ** Try offering to add a piece of carne asada to it and yummy !! Thank you to the lady cooks, very kind

You really have ask yourself what am I trying to eat? Been going to this spot since I was in highschool. Quality fluctuates a bit and there has been some weird eras depending on the cooks, I recall after cross country back in 2012 and walking miles to get home I'd walk by this spot and couldn't help myself to a burrito. The burritos are some if not the best in town hands down along with the sauce. Accompany it with a cold beer of your choice and it's paradise. Anyone complaining about the grease is hilarious get a veggie burrito if you mind it so much. The tacos are not the best although sauce makes up for it. As for the rest of the menu its unknown to me. 5 stars for their bomb ass burrito

I was planning on getting the tacos, but my plans rarely go according to plan. I like burritos so much that it somehow feels like I'm cheating on burritos if I get a taco at a place that sells burritos. So I ended up getting a burrito at a place that specializes in tacos. I know that may be cringe worthy to some people. It's like going to In N Out Burger to just get the coffee. In an ideal world I would have gotten tacos from a taco place and I wouldn't have ordered beer for my buddy and I, especially because I don't like beer that much. We don't live in an ideal world though. While I wasn't too crazy over the burrito and beer, I was crazy over the sauce that accompanied the burrito. The sauce coming together with the burrito really made it worth while. The next time I come back here, I'd like to think that I would try the tacos. To be completely honest though, I don't know if I'll ever be able to betray burritos like that. The only way I see myself trying the tacos here is if someone surprises me with tacos. I don't typically like surprises, but a taco surprise doesn't sound too bad. It seems like these tacos will always be a mystery to me.
