Hands down my FAVORITE Mexican food place.
10/10- atmosphere. Colorful, vibrant, clean, loved the lighting. Music is such a vibe
10/10- service. Nice staff, regular wait times
10/10- food. Absolutely delicious. Every type of meat ordered was perfectly flavored and the combination of everything was amazing.
Huge portions and very fairly priced. 2 people STUFFED for under $35
Coming back here and becoming A regular
Food was great. As good as any. The smoky salsa with onion chunks was very good. Service was good until our server forgot to bring us the check. We finally gave up and proceeded to the cashier.
Been driving past this restaurant for years, decided to stop by today and my only regret is that I didn't try this place sooner. The food was easily 10/10, portions were big and prices were very good. For 2 people we paid a total of about 35 dollars and we were absolutely stuffed. The chips and salsa were the best I ever had. This is without a doubt the best Mexican restaurant in the area. The waitress/server was very pleasant and never missed a beat. 20/10 restaurant!
Wonderful atmosphere the inside decor is alive and fun. Service was fantastic and kind. Food was delicious they came and sang happy birthday to my daughter and gave her free dessert. Definitely five Deadpool stars
This used to be a favorite spot of mine until my last visit their health rating was 85% we researched the violations online and decided not to eat there. Fast forward 4 months and we figured we’d give it another try today. We walked in looking for the health score since it was no longer available online. To our surprise is wasn’t available anymore in the restaurant either. We asked for the manager who said they changed ownership and said they applied for a new permit, however it was the same manager I’ve always seen there. Seems super suspicious to me. I will NEVER return to this place to eat.
Had a couple of issues with To-Go orders. I'm talking every other order, so I felt I had to update my review.
Food is always great when we eat in! And I appreciate the staff fixing the issues when they happen.
If you want a bean and rice burrito, Definitely order the Carne Asada burrito. Just because you're not eating at the restaurant doesn't mean you should not put the meat in the burrito!
We really enjoyed the food here. The portions were so big, the flavors were really good and the food was hot! I also love that they served real guacamole and sour cream with my meal vs having to ask for it. I ordered a chimichanga, my husband ordered a burrito and my
Mil ordered a quesadilla. We were just passing through or we would for sure be back for yummy Mexican eats!
