    Had a great time for a birthday party. The Mango drink they make is absolutely amazing. Tacos were so good. Thanks for an amazing night.

    Came on a lovely late spring day. We had our dog with us and they let us sit on the patio, which…read morewas nice. They even brought out an umbrella to keep us a bit shaded from the sun. They brought out refreshing cups of water, chips and 6 types of salsa, while we reviewed the menu. The "chips" are actually whole corn tortillas fried! So you use them whole or break them into chips yourself. My guess on the salsas are: salsa verde (tomatillo), avocado, pico de gallo, a smoky ancho, a citrusy habanero, and something else. They all had distinct flavors and a little light spice, but we wanted spicier. They brought out the "no way Jose" sauce and warned us it's their spiciest and it sneaks up on ya! We tried it and found it was not burning but quite nice. We drizzled this sauce all over our food. It was the most flavorful of the bunch. The menu is quite extensive, with everything from sopas to sopes, tortas to tacos, cocktails to desserts. We each got a plate of food, meaning the main entree comes with Mexican red rice and refried beans. I got the sopita (aka sope) with barbacoa and a fish taco and husband got a dipped torta (I forget the name) filled with adobada. The amount of food and meat was quite generous, the toppings (veggies) too. I really enjoyed my sope - it had the perfect crispy crust and I could taste the slightly sweet creamy taste of the masa. The barbacoa was not as flavorful as I thought it would be. It was more like stewed beef meat. It was fine but I was expecting really deep flavor. The fish taco seemed freshly grilled and was moist, but there was a bit of a "fishy" smell and flavor that kind of took over. Thankfully, the generous veggie toppings and fresh handmade corn tortilla and salsas helped mask the flavor. Have to hand it to them that those tortillas are really good! The Mexican rice was perfect. I haven't had that flavor and texture in Mexican rice in a while and thought that was well done. The refried beans were good but also had a flavor I couldn't place my finger on... My husband said everything was really good on his plate. His torta was massive! Really flavorful and stacked with things. The adobada was very tasty. I wish I ordered that meat instead of the barbacoa and fish. Overall pretty good Mexican food, generous portions, really sweet service. The interior is also really clean and nicely decorated. They have a small parking lot out back.

We ordered from the lunch menu offered Monday-Friday. What a great deal! We both ordered the Carne Asada plate for just under $16! The kids menu was also affordable at $6.50. Unheard of nowadays.. and plenty of food on top of that. Perfectly seasoned and cooked meat. We'll for sure be back. Highly recommend!

    I honestly hate to even do this but I feel like I have to. I usually come around 2 pm because it's…read moreslow then and they're usually fast at taking and making my order. I went in today with my daughter to get some late lunch There were 2 people working up front, a girl and a guy. The guy took our order and honestly seemed pretty dismissive of us being there. I asked for a side of rice and beans and he forgot to get it. I had to remind him after I had already paid for everything so then I had to pay again. Once I got my tacos they honestly seemed like they were skimping on the cheese so I brought it up but I could tell he wasn't going to do anything about it so I just dropped it. He gave me a mechanical, sarcastic "thank you maam" at the end but seemed just fine talking to his coworker. Also the rice and beans he gave me, the beans barely even covered the bottom of the container. I've had sub par experience here before and was really hoping they had turned it around but I guess not. I won't be back. The good food is not worth the weird /dismissive attitude I seem to get here. And they never answer their phone.

    I've eaten here before, and the food is good although you do wait a while in line to give them your…read morecustom-made burrito order, or whatever. Not much in the way of ambience, and they can be short-staffed on the weekends, which may be hurting their business because we got out of line and went right next-door to the bahn mi place, which was pretty OK!

    The Mexican food here is reliably solid, starting with the complimentary salsa, Mexican curtido…read more(cabbage slaw), and chips--a great way to ease into the meal. The staff is friendly and efficient, which makes it an ideal spot for a relaxed lunch. The restaurant is medium sized with adequate parking out front, and if things get busy, there's plenty of overflow in the adjacent Fred Meyer lot. The restaurant is in the middle of the strip mall just north of Fred Meyer. My spouse ordered the Avocado Tostada, which was generously sized and clearly delicious--he ate more than usual. It came with rice and refried beans, both well prepared. I used to order the Cheese/Onion Enchilada plate, which includes two enchiladas plus rice and beans, and I'd always end up taking half home (never quite the same reheated). Since my appetite is smaller, I now ask for just one cheese/onion enchilada on its own. The staff never blinks at the request, and my husband happily shares a bit of his refried beans with me. My meal was perfection. Definitely worth checking out. It's not the most extraordinary Mexican food in the area, but it's always very good--better than we can make at home--and that's why we keep coming back.
