Andale Taqueria Y Mercado - Richfield

The only downside was that my mom ordered coffee on our first visit, and it was served cold. However, the next day she mentioned this to the cashier, and she received a steaming hot cup of coffee that was almost too hot to drink. I won't take away a star for this, though, because we definitely plan to return. We just hope the coffee is at a drinkable temperature next time!

I have intended to visit this spot for many years now, oops. I never knew that the were on diners, drive ins, and dives, but they have memorabilia that says Guy ate here, which is super kool. Since it was dark outside when I stopped, I couldn 't tellyou if they always have the lights dim, but I loved the darkness. Often enough I can be overwhelmed by the lighting in arestaurant, but here there is enough light to see and nothing extra. I love it. The building is eye catching because it isrotated 45° off parallel to the street. And the entrance is floor to ceiling glass windows and doors. Its hard to tell but theroof might be higher in the front than in the back, and it looks inviting, and interesting. (This does mean however that theparking lot is interesting to navigate. I think that there is only 1 driveway entrance to it, so be patient with other drivers,as those who were there tonight were patient with me . The strawberry gelatina was a new menu item for me. It seems like theyflavored flan with strawberry and floated other translucent flavored cubes of jelly in it. It was great. Since it was allgelatine based components the texture was smooth and the same, unlike fruit salad gelatine where the bits of fruit often gethard, or are something to bite into in between gelatine slurps. Try one of you haven 't already. Torta Pastor wow. That 's anamazing sandwich. I think I 'm going to get pastor so much more often now. Wow. The avocado, the cheese, the crunchy pastor (porkshoulder , the bread, yum. Comfort food that won 't knock you on your back. Jarritos is tasty, and I often treat myself to itwhen I 'm at a spot that sells it. But I have learned that the juice bubbling away in the machines (chillers? by the register(s are often times so tasty. So I 'll have to get that another time. And the perfect portion of chips in a baggie was a greatsurprise to find. Often times there can be too many at other spots, but they got the amount correct here. The ha

I had such a great experience that I visited this restaurant twice just to try their soup dishes. My favorite was definitely the Menudo, though the red beef soup was also tasty. It does get a bit busy at times, but the staff is friendly and they keep the place clean. I'm looking forward to my next visit, and I might even bring my son and his family to enjoy more delicious Mexican food!

The food here is outstanding! We were pleasantly surprised by how delicious the tacos were, especially the Al Pastor, which was our favorite. The Torta Cubana offers great value for money and is big enough to feed two people. We would definitely return!

Overall we did enjoy the food. I tried 5 different tacos and my husband got the taco salad bowl. It is a very busy spot so the wait time was long when it came to ordering and waiting for food. The seating is very limited so better off calling or orderingonline. The parking lot is very limited so it's hard to get in and out when the parking lot is full. The grocery side of thestore was amazing. They had all sorts of Mexican food items to choose from like bread, fresh produce, candy, drinks, cannedgoods, household items, deli, ECT. It truly brought me back to when I was a kid in my grandma's house. I would definitely goback just for the grocery store side for sure.
