I’m a Texan transplant and this place is GOOD! I always get the steak asada tacos on corn tortillas with a bowl of limes on the side. Super authentic! The queso could use some work, but it was devoured nonetheless!

You can get some great food at this somewhat small resturant. The guacamole was delicious! I had the Chicken Verdes Enchiladas, wonderful! My husband enjoyed the Chicken Burrito. Chips were okay, salsa very tasty, with both very spicy and mild. Churros good! They have several tables for 6 or more, booths and a small bar. I believe you can reserve a table for six or more but not less. Strawberry Margarita on the rocks was excellent. Only thing missing was the music, it was extremely low to null and we enjoy that when we eat out. Good for friends night out, date night, or casual family dinner. Friendly, attentive staff. Check out my photos of what we ordered.Parking: Good parking

This place is so great! They have a lovely dog-friendly outdoor patio with heaters for the winter and ceiling fans for the summer. Two kinds of complimentary salsa come with fresh chips while you wait for your food, and they’re both good. One was fresh salsa and the other was a bit spicier, with a smoky chipotle flavor.We ordered two chicken dishes. First was chicken Jalisco (which is just pollo a la crema with veggies). The chicken was perfectly cooked, with a super creamy sauce and came piled high with grilled vegetables.The second dish was choripollo, and it was also fantastic. Again, the kitchen delivered perfectly moist chicken with a lovely sear, paired with a thick creamy cheese sauce. It was topped with what looked to be an entire gd sausage and it was a thing of beauty. There were at least four ounces of chorizo that had been sliced open and browned on the grill. It was as delicious as it looked.Side note: I asked for a side of sour cream and they delivered. Sometimes restaurants spoon an extra tablespoon of crema fresca of your plate and call it good, but this is a legit side that actually appeared at the same time as my order. These guys are on point.Saving the best for last, our server was Alex, and he was the real treasure for this meal. Alex is a ray of extremely competent sunshine. I highly recommend going off-peak so you can have a delightful little chat with him.

Being a fan of Mexican food I am not sure how I have missed this place. This is going to be my new go to restaurant since the food and prices are wonderful. The menu even has breakfast items served anytime. As for the green salsa to accompany your food. The two red salsa’s are just as wonderful. The Avocado Delight is a meal by itself. Service is very good, atmosphere is great, and food is right up there. Don’t miss this hidden gem.

Good, friendly service, food was delicious especially the ceviche & guacamole.

Pretty good, nothing too special tbh but I’d go back. We had the ACP and carne asada. The serve big margaritas! The servers were great, everyone checked in on us appropriately and helped us with our order, it wasn’t left on all our waitress.

Great food! Dine in free chips and salsa. My favorite is the whole fried tilapia! And really quick service! Very reasonably priced as well, highly recommend to everyone!

The tres leches cake was good, not the best but still good. They had someone there performing so it was kinda loud. Great service

Takeout on a busy Saturday night. Solid chicken nachos that I imagine are amazing eating there but like all takeout food gets a little more soggy once home. Plenty of salsa and chips to go. The chili relleno was very good, you can taste the pepper a lot more than from many other places, and the ground beef enchilada is well seasoned and delicious. While the food tends to favor a more suburban palate and the margarita crowd, overall it’s a good spot and I would definitely return if I’m in the mood for less authentic but delicious Mexican food.

My wife and I truly value this place. The staff and food are always top notch. Victor and his staff honestly feel like family when we visit, they’ve essentially seen our children grow up over years. During COVID so many places have lost their quality and life, this place has remained true and that says alot.
