I’m leaving a bad review in hopes that this place reads it and improves the quality of the food & customer service. I order the enchilada combo… it… was… terrible. They clearly use a blend of canned salsa w tomato’s. Not spicy or flavorful at all taste more like really rich pizza sauce. The ground beef was flavorless & the rice tasted generic. As a Mexican maybe my standards are a little higher but regardless restaurants should take pride in the food they serve. They are representing our culture!!I am a big supporter of small business so in hopes that this place will recognize that is failing.. I am leaving this review.Hate to see so much potential go to waste because of laziness & lack of care.

The Food is so delicious ?? My Husband and Daughter and me of course, decided to come back to this place, we're from Clarkston GA on spring break and we will definitely be coming whenever we're in Savannah Georgia

Always had a good experience at this little spot. Food ain't bad.

It was reasonably priced, and the service was really good. Food was on par with most other Mexican restaurants. Drinks were good but little on the weaker side.

Their food was delicious and their margaritas were on point. Very nice place to go on a date or with friends.

Wonderful fast service and wonderful price. Love it will come back.

Mannn I’d love to give this more stars, but I just can’t yet. It seems the food was recently changed for the worst.I got the Pollo Rico to-go. The waiter and host were both super nice and friendly. The food was pretty bad though. Chicken was cooked to rubber, no cheese sauce just grease, no seasoning at all. The salsa verde was pretty good, but the red salsa was lacking citrus and salt. The chips had no salt. I added my own cilantro, hot sauce, and some tajin to make it better.I’d love to give them another chance. It seems the restaurant may have had to cut corners to reduce food cost unfortunately. But hopefully they can bounce back and I can leave a 5 star review down the road! Seasoning at the very least is not super expensive! I’m rooting for y’all!!

Although the portions were small, everything was incredibly fresh. The bag with my just made tortilla chips was warm. It absorbed the oil but happily there wasn't too much. The salsa had a nice kick -- not too spicy -- immediately soothed by the cool tomato. It was like somebody squeezed it right off the vine. The amount of beef in my burrito could be classified as downright stingy; it was about the size of julienne vegetables but the green pepper was crisp & flavorful even after being cooked. The cheese sauce also packed a punch. I would have loved more. To write this review I was surprised to learn we were in Savannah. When I walked in at lunch time on a Sunday it was depressing -- dark, empty, too few tables for the space & a 4 page laminate menu. It seemed like a place in search of an identity but then I looked closer. All the magazines & local business cards were in Spanish. The few customers who did come in while I was waiting spoke Spanish. All I can say is this place is underrated.

You’ll be disappointed if you have high expectations- look at the pictures to get a feel for what the food is like. I personally like it & always have nice staff. Every time I’ve been they’ve had BOGO margaritas!!

PLEASE DO. NOT WASTE YOUR HARD EARNED MONEY HERE. READ THE REVIEWS! HIGH PRICES DO NOT MATCH PORTION SIZE!Yesterday a work crew from my business ate there, and it was very DISAPPOINTING. One person ordered carne asada and it wasn’t even enough for one taco, and it cost $30!!! He let the staff know and they said they would offer a discount. They thought somehow it was appropriate to only take off $2 from the price. And didn’t even offer to remake it. How can you charge $30 for essentially what was one steak taco?? Even the other order was like a child’s plate of food - and it was supposed to be an adult order of fajitas. How can you be ok with ripping off your customers who put good faith in you and your establishment? Sad.
