“This is by FAR the best Mexican food in the area. The owner is always there and so friendly. The food is incredible. I highly recommend getting a whole or half chicken if you are looking for a family meal. The tacos are delicious and the meat is always well seasoned. My husband loves the chicharron and the cabeza tacos; I tend to lean towards the steak and the shrimp tacos. There’s really not a single thing on the menu we haven’t liked. It’s a small space but it’s a hidden gem. Don’t miss out on Mr. Cesar’s!”
