“ Solo Veracruz es bello! I grew up with this kind of Mexican cuisine. Anything taste better than this. ”
“ The Best ”
“ Very good Mexican antojitos. ”
“ I give it 5 stars because of the years the service was excellent, the snacks are delicious. For years we've gone there every time we go to Pozarica (I wish I was a kid). But since Dona Carmen passed away, the service has become terrible. • They take a long time to take your order. • The waiters have a bad attitude. • They have no patience with customers. • They complain that the owners don't hire more staff. • The snacks have dropped a bit in quality. But I hope it was only like this last visit and the next one will be much better. ”
“ A place where you eat very delicious The combined sopes are super delicious, red, green and bean sauce. The soft ones are good but if they had a little more green sauce they would be better Horchata water very good The green sauce, my favorite, is delicious. It's not that spicy, but it does give flavor. Recommendation: ask for accessories such as cheese and meat because they are good snacks but without accessories and if you need them if you like it with meat The cheese is very good The portions are moderate but the price is the same just against the portion so if you are hungry you have money left and you can order more pieces All with a characteristic flavor of the area, so it is the typical and traditional seasoning of Poza Rica. ”
