We ordered 2 orders of veggie nachos and got this for $33. Pretty sad. We ordered an $8 guacamole and it was brown, from a frozen bag and our order was 1/2 full. Don’t believe the hype. The 2 stars is the least I could do after much debate your cashier let my wife use the restroom.. after she told us NO chips and salsa for our $50 order? What’s up with that?Are you back to charging tourist fees without notice? Or Togo fees? However, I was charged more for my cooked lettuce nachos than your shrimp or chicken nachos are listed for? Is the lettuce more expensive than shrimp these days? It was only a little cooked lettuce, a tablespoon of pico and a little drizzle of Mayo sour cream. For $16.50?Do the nachos in the picture look loaded to you? They have 10 chips and the small box is 1/3 way full with sautéed lettuce and a tablespoon of pico. Did you see the picture? And your “homemade” guacamole was purée brown mush. We have tried your place more than several times and it’s the same every time, .did you even look at the picture of your “loaded” nachos? Does this look loaded to you?

This is as close to authentic as it gets!!! We are from Texas and go here every time we are in town, about 4 times/year!!! The shrimp quesadillas are the best!!! Ask for the grilled fajita vegetables to be added!!

Came here with my buddy while in PCB. Heard food was better other places but the margs were to die for. So we just got jalapeño margs and they brought chips. The chips were so good we got queso as well which was delicious. Just from tasting the appetizers, the food must be fire, but we still saved our appetite for Diego’s. Our server Jorge was the the best I’ve had in PCB. Will definitely be back!

Such a good little restaurant! Our server (Jorge) was literally the friendliest human I think I’ve ever met! So sweet, so bubbly and so accommodating! I’m a server myself and I was definitely taking notes! Such a sweet heart! Definitely recommend! (Also soup of the day was “tequila”?? so fun!)

I had my doubts, being in Florida and eating Mexican food. Man was I wrong. The wet burrito with chicken, queso, and fajita mix was easily the best I’ve ever had. 100% worth it.

DELICIOUS local Mexican spot. The margaritas are huge, strong, and delicious. Everything we had tasted great and came out hot and quickly. Frank was our server and he was amazing. There isn't a lot of quality food in PCB but this was a pleasant surprise, definitely worth the visit!!

Great margaritas, I had the jalapeno angmd my wife had the mango. Great home made guacamole, and the salsa had a nice little kick. My wife had the fajitas and loved them. I had the 7 seafood soup (7 Mares), which was awsome. The staff was wonderful as well, answering our questions, and helping us choose. The manager stopped by to chat with us, and we could tell she was very proud of her restaurant and food. She asked about where we were from, and what brought us here. She talked about her "family" of regulars (the place was packed, and the staff knew many customers by first name), and how everything was prepared fresh (it showed). We are going back for our normal Friday-night mexican meal as well. I think I want to try lunch there as well, the shrimp cocktail looks awsome...

Easy to order, food done super quick! Wet burrito, 10 tacos, nachos and a chicken with rice + Chips and salsa for about $70!! This food was delicious and definitely worth the money. Id much rather support a place like this than a corporation.

We found this little gem that was only 2 blocks from where we were staying. It may be small but the food and beverages and service are mighty. We loved it. The atmosphere was sweet, the staff all were friendly and efficient. So glad we found it and we recommended it to several persons.

Absolutely wonderful dining experience!! The food and service was excellent. Best chili relleno I ever had. Very good flan for dessert, and their queso and margaritas are awesome!!! The owner was there and was very personable and concerned that every customer have a great experience. She's originally from Mexico and knows her cuisine. I will certainly be back before I leave town. Highly recommended!!!
