I was here with the lovely ladies in my aqua fitness group for Christmas lunch. Love the atmosphere, good, and service. This was the best chicken soup ever- just like homemade and very filling. The manager greeted us and Dora was fantastic- very attentive and kind. Excellent dining experience. 5 stars.

Delicious house made guacamole—one of our family favorites! My parents and I enjoyed the Enchiladas, the Mexican Mole, and the Burria Tacos. The salsa was a great spice level—we like some spice. The server was so sweet and very swift. I also enjoyed the Horchata Definitely the best Mexican restaurant in the area :) Will come back!

The food was very good, but to just let you know, the Taco Birria was too much cheese, too little meat. The interior was strongly branded in a way that families & kids would like. The place is spacious & the menu is rich.

Our server Alonso was very chill and nice. The restaurant was very clean and tidy. The food was alright, I wish they could have more toppings for the fajitas like creme and avocado. The restaurant is very nice, we will be back. Thank you

With a very festive atmosphere, this restaurant feels very South of the Border! The food was very good-I had mahi-mahi tacos and next time will try the shrimp ones. I like that they have different tacos available. You'd think three tacos wouldn't be enough, but they were stuffed and the rice and beans sides rounded out the meal. My husband had the chicken enchiladas, and his plate was HUGE! Very good flavor. And you can't go wrong with the frozen margaritas! GM and servers most welcoming and attentive. You can dine away from the bar, if desired. They have a lot of room - this restaurant would be great for a work gathering, party or any kind of larger group. Nice outside area too.

I stopped in for lunch and had a really great experience. The food was fresh, flavorful, and came out quickly. The portions were generous without being overwhelming, and everything tasted authentic and well-prepared. The staff was friendly, attentive, and made sure I had everything I needed. The atmosphere was relaxed and welcoming, making it a comfortable spot to enjoy a meal. Overall, a great place for anyone looking for quality Mexican food and good service—I’ll definitely be back.

So happy we came here! Happy Hour was an amazing experience with Alonso, our waiter. We were say right away, the drinks were strong, and the food was hot! Nachos, Queso Dip, and Flautas were great. Can't wait to come back to this local spot!
