  It's laughable that other reviewers are talking about how bad the quesadillas and other Americanized dishes are. I've also heard it personally. To each of you, if you came here looking for Chipotle/Qdoba/Taco Bell stuff, you've come to the wrong place. Now if you're looking for authentic Mexican Food, this is it.
  
  I have been a fan of Mrs. Lupe's cooking for years. I used to come to her first restaurant everyday after elementary school, high school and even college! I tracked down her new location and am still a fan.
  
  I usually get the Tex-Mex chips, steak/lengua/ al pastor tacos and the chicken/pork tamales. The cheeses and other fixings on the chips seem to meld nicely together. The chips are my favorite, they are fried to a perfect golden brown. I also like the strong hints of corn and light hints of peanut, possible because they are friend in peanut oil. The chips are never greasy. The meats on the tacos are always well seasoned and never skimpy. The cuts of tongue, especially, are always nice chucks and incredibly tender.
  
  I brought a friend here, who is usually a picky eater, and he loved his meals. He bought the seafood soup and the Shrimp Veracruzana, which is shrimp sauteed with various veggies in some sort of sauce served with a side of rice. Although I didn't personally try it, my friend it was very good. Both meal portions were large and filling. Some spots usually skimp on the shrimp or any seafood portion, but not here.
  
  Although I have been a longtime customer of Lupe for many years, I am still exploring the menu. I am eyeing the goat and rice dish. I was initially apprehensive because I know goat meat is expensive, so many restaurants tend to be stingy with their portions, but after seeing the large portion of the Shrimp Veracruzana I have some confidence the goat entree will be the same.

  Everything was prepared and delivered very quickly, and it showed. I'm not that picky about food, but this was some of most unappealing stuff I have ever tried to eat. This was the first time I have immediately wanted throw away a meal after it was delivered.
  
  Every dish was kind of soggy and they used what seemed like prepackaged yellow cheese slices instead of anything close to Mexican white cheese. The torta Cubana was basically a cheap cafeteria-style hamburger made from unseparated hunks of Kraft singles, pieces of bland wet ham, and lettuce shreds. The sincronizadas were also just the same ham and yellow cheese too. The fish tacos were wet, falling apart, and blandly fishy. Incredibly disappointing food experience.

  I was craving empanadas so while my wife went to get a gyro at Koukouzeli, I came here and ordered beef empanadas. I paid $8.00 for three giant empanadas and a side salad with guacamole. My order took ten minutes, which wasn't bad at all. The empanadas were made fresh. The beef was sliced flank steak. It was fried with mozzarella cheese. The dough was amazing. I was impressed with the empanadas. The service was good and the portion was amazing for the price. This place is very casual with a few tables to eat in. It is cash only.

  Quite possibly the worst tacos I have ever had.
  
  The corn tortillas were hard and cold. I don't know if I've ever had a taco with a tortilla that wasn't at least warmed. Super weird.
  
  The chicken was SO dry. Like, disgustingly dry. I actually usually prefer chicken a little dry but it's like they microwaved it eight times in a row. It was straight rubber. I was trying to figure out if it was actually chicken. It was. Just really awful chicken
  
  The vegetables in the veggie taco were those perfectly cubed ones that clearly come from a factory and are frozen and then nuked. You know the ones? They are those little square carrots and peas that sit on the top of the 40 cent ramen noodle packets or the ones your buy in the supermarket that steam in the bag? First, who the F puts peas and carrots in a taco? That's not authentic, that's a pot pie in a corn tortilla. I expect there to be beans, maybe rice and fajitas. Peppers, onions, maybe mushroom. Second, it was flavorless and gross. Don't offer a vegetarian option if your idea of a vegetarian taco is microwaved carrots and peas on a hard tortilla.
  
  The pescado was not bad but it was not enough to save the dinner. They also give you these huge weird cuts of cucumber with the meal. And possibly carrots? I don't know. It was the weirdest taco experience I've ever had. This is not authentic- it's just really really bad.

  They delivered a food order with a missing item and wouldn't send the driver back to deliver the item they forgot. The food we did receive was soggy and wet by the time it arrived. All the burritos fell apart. Will not order or do business with them again.
