First time trying out this restaurant. I had the Tacos Dorados and a peach/ raspberry margarita ? ?. So GOOD! I enjoyed my meal , the tacos were so tasty and crunchy. The margarita was refreshing and had a good amount of alcohol. My plate is considered the first meals that started this El Paso flavored restaurant. I will definitely be coming back, I highly would recommend anyone to give this place a shot!

Worst restaurant ever. It’s humid in here, ac isn’t working, margaritas have no flavor, we found hair in the drinks AND the tortilla chips. There’s one waiter, one bartender, one cook for the whole restaurant. And that’s not even the worst part. Our waiter (never told us his name) wiped his sweat off and didn’t wash his hands after. We watched as he went into the kitchen and grabbed our food to bring it to our table. I only had two drinks which was $17. When the bill came he brought me back a receipt for $29 that was charged to my card. I told him he made a mistake he said he was “distracted”. They refunded the $29 and charged me the original $17. This experience was terrible. Never coming again.

Traveling from San Antonio to Houston Hobby to take a flight. Hungry from the car ride we stumbled across this wonderful restaurant. What we thought was a hole in the wall Mexican restaurant turn into what seemed like an affordable 5 star delight. Great flavor. Beautiful presentation. I will definitely recommend this restaurant.

This place was EXCELLENT all around! Really good food and service. The margaritas were very good and the food was even better. Highly recommend.

My first impression driving up to this place was... uhhh are we sure this is the right place.. Its a bit of a dive.. but I like a bit of adventure and I was told they had really good Margherita's.. so I went in..The atmosphere was a bit lacking but the staff was friendly. They quickly got us seated and the service was pretty good.The chips and salsa were lacking. More the salsa and the green just weren't my thing. The Pico was good though. No big deal..Where the chips and salsa lacked .. they made up for it big time on the Margheritas. We tried 4 different flavors all were good. They were huge. Loaded with booze and tasted good.Ordered some queso with brisket next. They screwed it up and just brought queso, but fixed it quickly. Definitely much better than the salsa.Also has the bacon wrapped shrimp. It was a bit sweet to taste which I wasn't expecting but okay. I can't say it was a home run though. Probably wouldn't get it again.The fajitas though were great and the beans.. loved the beans and I'm not a big fan of beans normally.So.. for this place to get 4 stars from me. 1) couple screw ups on service. Solve that. 2) invest in a sign and update the place a bit. You have a decent product but I'm sure that people pull up and drive away. 3) change the salsa and green thing. Just didn't do it for me. 4) come up with some combinations of margaritas that are popular. I had to think about it and would be nice to have something to just pick from that had flavors mixed.The pricing was amazing. Way cheaper than expected. I'd definitely come back for some drinks and fajitas again.

The best so delicious can’t wait to go back

Absolutely delicious, amazing flavourful what an great surprise. Loved the double bacon wrapped poppers with sweet carmelized onions and they are huge. Got the tres enchiladas, Mole enchiladas were my favorite!!!!! Prices were good too.

Definitely would have given this a 5 star if the service was better. The food was incredibly delicious and everything tasted fresh. I wanted to try the margaritas because they looked delicious but because they were taking forever I decided not to. There were only two guys serving on the floor and I definitely understand short staff shortage but it was not all enjoyable. This place has potential though because their food is great. The place is not that big but they do have a good seating amount as well as a bar and outside seating.

Great place to eat! All the food is delicious and the drinks are strong and yummy. The only down side is the short staff and how long you have to wait to get served during busy hours. They definitely need to have more servers ready for busy days. Had a date night planned with my husband and we had to leave and go somewhere else because other people were getting their order taken before us and they arrived way after us.I will return, but I will make sure its not super busy.

The food was delicious! I usually go for the green enchiladas and they did not disappoint. The menu itself could use some TLC. Looked dirty and a little ghetto. Had a few margaritas and they were amazing. That I remember clearly! Will be back to try another menu item for sure!
