The food is amazing here. Every dish is unique, flavorful and authentic. Carlos was very attentive without being overly friendly. Try the virgin prickly pear hurricane for something just a little different and very tasty. Ask for half and half red and green sauce on your chili or enchiladas, great way to try both delicious sauces. The birria is fabulous on tacos and in enchiladas. I look forward to trying other dishes on their menu.

Cassandra was my server, she was really kind and even though I’m a many time regular she guided me to a new choice that was fantastic. As always, Amelia’s did great but this time I had to leave the review, for the churiqueso, the quesabirria, and especially for Cassandra.

Carlos was absolutely amazing! From the moment we sat down, he was attentive, friendly, and made us feel so welcome. He knew the menu well, gave great recommendations, and checked on us just the right amount. Our drinks were always full and the service was fast without feeling rushed. Carlos truly made our dining experience memorable we’ll definitely be back and hope to have him as our waiter again!

This little restaurant is a lovely "hole in the wall" place.
The food is fantastic! I had a combination plate with beef enchilada, taqueto, and tamale with refried beans and rice. It also came with a bit of salad, sour cream and guacamole. Excellent flavors.
Dad had chili rellenos with rice and black beans. This is a favorite food of his, so when he had nothing but praise for them, I knew they were really good.
Mom had cheese enchiladas with rice and refried beans. She could not stop "Mmmm"ing with eyes closed with practically every bite. Finding places she really enjoys is always a big plus!
Our waiter was new and learning, but he did a really good job. He checked on us several times. Always had a smile, and I saw him quickly helping co-workers with other things.
Prices were really good for the amount of food we got.
We will be going back.

Our waitress was amazing, made sure we had chips on the table and our drinks were not empty. Was told there would be a 25-30 minute wait. 1 hours minutes later we were finally seated. And once ordered took over an hour to get our food to be able to eat everything in 10 mins. The barria toast were alright and the chimy was good. I wasn't a big fan of the tamales or the chicken enchiladas. I guess I was expecting more out a place that was so busy.
