Only Traditional Mexican food, not Tex-Mex. My absolute favorite place for Authentic Molé. Sweetest owners that truly care about their customers. Very small place, don't let the parking lot scare you off. It is shared by a local bar so it always looks crowded.

Bar
REOPENED IN A NEW LOCATION! They picked up the building and moved it! This place survived Hurricane Harvey! I think it's the nicotine-covered baseball caps hanging from the ceiling that held it together. Love this place, it's been here since dirt. Always an interesting crowd. It looks rough but it's safe. Just a great authentic dive bar. Live music on the weekends
