Beto’s Alt-Mex! New favorite brunch spot! Cute authentic decor and a seat yourself option. The Horchata was delicious. We ordered Beto’s Plates and some Pozole, with the option to have it as an appetizer. The pozole was so flavorful and hearty, tender chunks of pork, generous hominy. The empanadas were really good and the quesadillas were stuffed! Due to the large portions, this meal was literally breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We’ll be back to try out the other offerings…oh…and, Y’all…there’s a DRIVE-THRU!

Derrick makes the BEST Carne Asada Fries!!!
I'm am sooooo blown away!
Beto's took them off the menu years back, but this restaurant goes out of its way to please it's customers and will make them upon request.
I called to ask Chris, the owner, if he could make them, but he wasn't at the restaurant.
Derrick asked me if he could put his own special twist on the fries since he wasn't familiar with exactly how they were made on the old menu. I agreed and am soooo thankful that I did. Him offering to do that was so kind. I couldn't believe how much work he put into this one order for me. From the first bite to the last, it was pure bliss. Now let me tell you, I have tried Carne Asada fries all over the United States (Cali used to be my favorite place, but not anymore) and consider myself a major foodie. These were the best carne asada fries that I've EVER had. It was such a perfect balance of flavors! Thank you Derrick for going out of your way for me. You have set the bar to an unreachable level! (The picture just doesn't do them the justice they deserve, but still look AMAZING in the picture)

The atmosphere is lovely and the food is amazing. It's so good for some diversity!
The issue was a younger server. I asked if they had crunchy shells for the kids tacos and she said, "We don't do that here. This isn't that type of restaurant. This isn't Mexican food" Her face wasn't subtle that she was annoyed.
I went in to find her to complete the order and asked if there was something going on.
"You were just rude to me. But that's fine."
"At which point..."
Cuts me off, "You were rude to me. You were. That's fine. I'll get you another server. MOM!" And she walks off.
Her mom was apologetic, saying young servers were sensitive. She was very kind to me and my kids. But her daughter continued giving me ugly looks. I was told that people come here expecting Mexican food and leave annoyed. I don't know if she was assuming that's where I was headed... And I'm sure she made assumptions about my my ethnicity. Neither should matter.
Go work somewhere where you don't have to talk to people and don't bring down a great place.

Five stars for the empanadas alone! I was very pleased with the entire meal, but the empanada really stood out to me. Flaky yet tender crust, and the filling was super flavorful. The grilled fish taco was great also, and it was really nice to have a hand made tortilla. Very impressed, and my coworkers and I plan on returning.

Absolutely amazing food! In town visiting and Beto's seemed like a good choice, and we were definitely right about that! The banana and pecan empanada is one of the best things I have ever tasted.

Came here on a pretty warm evening and wad delighted to have been sat inside although the outdoor seating is sooooo cute!
Our waitress was great! Quickly served us waters and had patience while my husband took forever to decide what he wanted (he wanted it all).
We both settled on ordering a create our own combo meal.
I picked the chicken poblano empanada and the grilled fish taco. Both were soooo big that I had to take half my food home.
The taco came with so much grilled fish which I appreciated. A side of ranchero beans and rice were included and honestly I could have also just eaten those sides by themselves.
Highly recommend and will return!

I googled “Michelada” close by and this restaurant popped up. Given that I live in the area, I decided to stop by. I wish I had known about this place sooner!!! What a treat! The michelada was Amazing and I’m a pretty tough miche critic. The owner was on the floor and was extremely helpful as well as my waitress. He recommended their strawberry infused Jalapeño margarita (I was again skeptical on how this could taste). It actually tasted like a strawberry lemonade!! ???? Dangerous, I know. My meal consisted of the fish taco plate, a cup of pozole… perfect pozole btw. And a cup of the fideos and corn. Needless to say, I will most def be returning. Their open back patio is the perfect setting to bring and treat clientele.

We absolutely loved it here. The ceviche was wonderful. I got the grilled fish, al pastor and chicken poblano empanada. All were fantastic. We will be coming back.

Al Pastor & Fish tacos made on scratch tortilla! Don't sleep on food in weird places in town. The street corn & charro beans quite tasty. The Salas were amazing, grab the green for the fish and houses salsa was down right drinkable. Definitely adding this to the redo list!
