Super delicious, it's "taquiza" style, you choose the stews you want and they charge 80 per plate, they have a variety and everything is super delicious. I'm surprised it doesn't have so many reviews because going to Tapalpa and not eating at La Cuachala... sin!

Small, very casual family run restaurant of stew and tacos .The tortillas were fresh and handmade. The stews and tacos were delicious including two vegetarian! No cerveza or tequila , just wat waters, coffee and soda. Order at the taco bar and have a seat. Dine-in or takeout. Delicious! Recommend.
