Food is horrible the last couple times I ordered. Ordered nachos last week and the chips were so soggy because they melted the cheese so long. Took 2 bites. Had to use a fork. Threw it away. Ordered tacos last night Again they melted the cheese too long. Tortillas were hard. All I could taste was cheese. Garbage!! Never ordering here again.

Quick & friendly service Good food, great options ????

We had to wait a bit for service and one of our guests didn't get their order until late but they didn't charge her. My mom loves their food. Fresh tortilla chips are great.

Had a blast, here! Food is amazing and the portions are bigger than your head... bring an appetite!! I celebrated my birthday there and they brought me a shot of tequila in a glass of ice with a candle and sang happy birthday in Spanish!! So, cool! Prices here are very good. You won't regret dining here.

Very good food, service, and kind staf and it's really pretty inside! I love the food and drinks I recommend the sope with beans and nopales, chilaquiles, the chicken tenders with fries, Torta, Gordita, verde tamales, cheese dip with chips, and the guacamole is so good! Plus more and some drinks are the smoothies like my favorite is the strawberry, horchata,hot chocolate, jaritos and the Piña Colada is good but for kids just say without alcohol and the desserts are good too like the fried ice cream, flan, the cheese cakes -my favorite is the cherry cheesecake the cherries are very good and the cherry sauce thing(not sure what's it called) thats on there is really good in my opinion! ?

LOVE this place. Always good food and margaritas! 10/10 strawberry margaritas. Staff is always pleasant as well.

I'm sorry but the food was really bad, like insultingly bad.We had ordered this for delivery once and it was really good that time, I'm not sure why it was so bad this time. We had decided to try it for dine-in for the first time.The beef taco had no seasoning, really flavorless and was barely warm with wet lettuce. My wife's steak tacos were swimming in cilantro and the meat was large chewy pieces.I had to ask 3 times for the cheese dip, which came after the main food and when we got it it was ice cold.The pomegranate margarita tasted like orange and lime, not pomegranate.We tried a bite of everything but we just couldn't eat it. If it was at least mediocre I would have just eaten it. I absolutely hate to ask for a refund, I'm non confrontational, and I feel bad for asking, but it was bad enough that I did.We got our money back but only after they tried to charge for the $10 margarita that was too bad to drink, plus a soda we didn't even order. This was a mix up, which they resolved eventually and they waved the full bill, but not before the guy up front got upset when I said "what the hell" to the soda charge.He was more concerned with the bad word I said once than the fact that the food wasn't edible or that we never ordered a soda he still wanted too charge me for.The guy made the whole thing really uncomfortable, it made my wife who struggles with eating out very uncomfortable. It was like he was trying to make us feel bad for the food and service we received and then gaslight me.Again they eventually waved the full bill, but wow that was an awkward and unenjoyable experience. We were really looking forward to eating there too.

Dinner inside was delicious, great service and prices were fair. We'll be back

It was freezing cold inside. We had to keep our coats on the entire meal. The beef fajitas were very stringy. Was very disappointed. Hubby had the shrimp fajitas, and those at least were very good.

Seems to be pretty authentic Mexican food. I was able to get a Pollo mole, which is rare in Minnesota. Staff was very cordial and attentive!
