Thank you for helping me find the lime for my already fabulous steak tacos!

Horrible horrible experience and absolutely rude staff! I asked to speak the manager apparently he was. I called and ordered a taco dinner and a coke. Went to pick up my order and the gentleman said I’ll be right with you. When he came back he didn’t stop just kept walking and said what was my name as he walked towards the loud kitchen. I said Megan and he said Megan I said yes. NEVeR once did he repeat my order to me. I also said where’s my coke and he said there was none on the order. Come home wrong order. My husband went back and they argued with him as they wouldn’t answer the phone for me. They said it was my fault it as there were two Megan’s. I said you never confirmed my order and he said he yelled it from the kitchen. I’ve worked in hospitality for years and I hate to write these reviews but it’s deserved with how they made us double pay for their mistake and treated us poorly. All he wanted to do was argue and and it’s a shame because the over priced food and customer service I will NEVER go back!

We just had dinner here and I normally don’t write reviews.. but this place was absolutely amazing. I would give them 10 stars if I could. We were passing through the area and were really craving some Mexican food. I’m so glad we stopped here. Best guacamole and best fajitas I’ve ever had in my life. Even the chips and salsa were fantastic. We loved the atmosphere and loved the service. Our waiter was very attentive, friendly, and kind. And the cook even asked for feedback because I asked to have the meat cooked a certain way - that’s someone who’s passionate about what they do!Our only regret is that we won’t be able to go back because we don’t live here.Do yourself a favor and check this place out.

Soooooo good! Tacos were on the Money. Even the asada was tender and juicy. The Tamale was absolutely the best ? The $5 Margarita was a $8 drink! So good. Thank you, Thank you for being so delicious.

Really good quesabirria tacos the couple of times I’ve gotten them here. Salsas are quite good. The workers are also very kind. And the orders never take very long, usually in and out service. Taking a star off only because first, they do not answer the phone enough. And two, most importantly, the front area could use a deep clean and some updating. Otherwise I think it’s a decent little Mexican place. I will continue to come in when I’m nearby for sure.

The food is okay. The places need to be clean often the tables chair and floor was so dirty I had to ask the lady can she clean the tables and chairs again. The place is so dark inside they need more lighting.They literally charge 1.50 for water which should be free.

Update* Gave them another go different server from the first time and she was fantastic! Food was great and so are the margs.(First Visit) Recently went in after a long hiatus from eating out (covid) and had a terrible experience. Cashier/waitress was working solo so there was a long wait to be greeted and recieve initial menu we sat ourselves at a table. When ordering we asked the waitress about what items were in one of the soups due to my son (6) being a picky eater/having food allergens. When the item was recieved it was topped with 3 additional ingredients not mentioned making it unconsummable for my child (Shredded Cheese, Avocado, Cilantro, and a Red/Spicy Scoop of Sauce). We did initally ask to have it refunded and did not touch the soup and if we could order additional food instead (rice and another taco). We were flat out told no. Instead of offering even to remake the item minus the things he couldnt eat, we were told when only asked what came inside the soup and not on top of the soup, and that we could just pick it off since they had already made the item. We asked about the ingredients before ordering to avoid trouble. Really dissapointed as the birria tacos I had here were the best Ive had in the region, but the unprofessionalism of the cashier has turned my family completely off. The manager only spoke spanish and never came out from the kitchen to talk with us, she only spoke to the cashier

Best tacos I have had since I left West Texas. Absolutely a must dine for anyone!! The only place I eat when I am in town!!

Usually they are good… today was a bad day… and that’s ok… everyone and every business has one… but they didn’t wanna make my food over when my shells were hard and old… I didn’t ask for a refund just simply remake the food.. they have a policy that once the food is out the door… there’s no fixing the problem…no cash no remake… that is bad for business.. and I never heard of such a policy… so my advise is to check and taste your food before u leave the restaurant…

Quesabirrias. Perfection. Friendly staff. Great family place.
