Best tasting Mexican food in the Jackson/Ridgeland area! Been meaning to leave a review as we eat here often, but today I tried their Molcajete and it really left a lasting impression on me! We had guests from out of town with us and they all truly enjoyed their dishes. The flavor of all of their meat is second to none and the value of their dishes are impressive as we all always leave with leftovers. As of today, I can confirm they have their liquor license, so you can now order margaritas too, not just beer. Margs were good. Their salsa and chips beat any other Mexican place as well. This is more of an authentic experience than what some may be comfortable with, but if you’re truly a Mexican food connoisseur, you won’t be disappointed. The venue would be considered grungy, but to me and my family, the food more than makes up for this aspect.

Food was good but the don't sell Margherita...In a Mexican restaurant

We had a great experience!We've intended to visit for 2 years but . . . covid. Yes, we've tried to call and they hadn't answered in the past. We also thought they had unusual hours in the past. But today was our day!. We ordered the steak molcajetes (omg, that was huge, 4 could share it), the steak quesadilla (2 could eat it), and the enchilada Verde. No diet coke. Mexican coke in a bottle. The restaurant was almost deserted when we got there at noon on Sunday. It's very dark inside, pool tables in the back. I suppose karaoke and dance floor in the front. The Hispanic pop music was pleasant to listen to. The food wasn't spicy hot but was flavorful. I think complainers will complain.

Good street taco! Atmosphere could be a little better but the street tacos are good!

Good food and service. Bit of a language barrier though. Also music isn't good imo.

Nobody answers the phone at all they’ll answer the phone and hang up

This restaurant is horrendous the food is not real Mexican food it's all WHITE?people cooking the food .NONE of the waitresses speak Spanish and they're all white. The food was not seasoned .And when I asked for salsa they brought me ketchup horrible definitely white washed not Hispanic food at all!!!!!!I wish I could give it 0 stars !! I come from a Mexican household and they do NOT serve authentic Mexican food !

The food here has good flavor and tastes authentic.\\nI rated it a 3 because the to-go portions seem to be getting smaller and smaller.\\nThe place is always empty except for the employees so don't be alarmed because the food is really good.

Great food

Music was good, people were well behaved although 90% were young enough to my imaginary children... It was good though.
