Awesome food and service. We will definitely be back soon!!!

My mother-in-law treated my husband and me to dinner tonight, and we all heartily enjoyed our margarita and meal. My MIL is still raving about her crab chimi, I loved my trio sampler (including chili relleno with a banana pepper rather than a poblano), and my guy had a super burrito with shredded beef that was just great. The service couldn't have been better and I look forward to returning again very soon!

Good food and prices. Great staff. Only problem that I had was the bar stools to sit on. They were very uncomfortable for an older lady to get up on and then kept sliding forward. Choose a booth if this would bother you.

Hadn't been here for a while. Food was good, pleasant presentation, prepared quickly. I was there early and it wasn't crowded. Can't speak to speed when they're busy.

We had a great visit here and the food is very tasty, however my wife said the seafood enchiladas lacked much of a noticeable “seafood“ component, and she said it tasted mostly like cheese, which she still enjoyed and was flavorful. Staff are friendly and they provided great service!

If you haven't been here yet you need to go check it out it's very unique

We were greeted right away by very friendly server, who checked on us quite a bit. Steak burrito was very good, and went nicely with my captain morgan. Queso was very good. Loved the spicy cheese balls, which had some good kick to them. Luckily the captain and pepsi quickly put out the fire within my mouth. They had football on the tv too. I will definitely go back to try their other items!

Great food and personable staff. Best fajitas nachos I've ever had!

The waitress was so sweet. But the whole place smells of mildew and mold. It was over priced for a few tacos and the rice was mushy and bland. The chips were stale. Better places for the money for sure but if you're in the area and want white people Mexican food, it's decent. It would be a 2 star but the service was impeccable.

Tried it for the first time today. It was clean. Staff friendly. Food delicious.
