    Chips and salsa
    Mona A.

    We absolutely loved this spot. Everything about this place hit the mark! The customer service was excellent, super friendly and attentive. The interior is super cute, Spanish style decorations, it feels like stepping into a cute soot in Mexico. The food was great. The beef was so tender and flavorful. I got the beef burrito, and my husband ordered the carnitas chimichangas along with a tamale, and everything was delicious. They put sauce on their burritos and it's delicious. For the tamale they flavor their masa and honestly it's one of the best tamale i have tried. I was genuinely impressed. They also give you chips and salsa, and it's delicious, and makes the whole food experience great. Fresh, flavorful, and hard to stop eating. Their drinks are okay, my husband got the melon margarita, and I think it was over powered with whatever simple syrup they were using, and was disappointing (I think they can do better with their drinks). Overall a good spot, and we will definitely be back

    Dropped in for a quick lunch and was immediately greeted and shown to our seats. The ambience was joyful and inviting with traditional Mexican colors and decor. We visited during a busy Friday lunch hour, received impeccable service and were provided with complementary chips and salsa. The chips really had no taste, but the salsa was spot on. We ordered A create your own platter, which consisted of chili relleno, tostada, and tamale. Also ordered a burrito and fiesta tostada. All meals were tasty but I do wish the chicken in the fiesta tostada was seasoned a bit and either cut in smaller pieces or shredded. Definitely will pay another visit or two...

    Catfish Soft Tacos $17.95 Two grilled catfish in soft corn tortilla served with lettuce, pico de gallo, rice & whole beans

    It was busy, full house on Friday night when we went. But last time we came sometimes during the week, it was empty (2022). Would definitely return again in the not too distant future. A few days ago, we decided to come here for dinner and I wanted to try a new dish. I ordered the Catfish Soft Tacos and it was delish and very filling! For $17.95, I ordered two grilled catfish in soft corn tortilla served with lettuce, pico de gallo, rice & whole beans. I'm not usually fond of fish tacos or picky with it in general, but this one was an exception! Not overcooked nor undercooked and it was perfectly spiced! Something to note tho, for the appetizer served (chips and salsa), I didn't find the chips to be fresh and that was a disappointment as the two types of red salsa it came with were fantastic! Everything was perfect last Friday night, the lively decorations (brick arches painted along the arches, makes you feel like you're in an outdoor seating, in a Latin Country), music and vibe of families and diners alike tell you why this restaurant is popular. The servers are nice and prompt with delivering your order. Stop by when you're in the area! Posted pictures of when we first dined here in 2022 and the most recent one last Friday night.

    This place is very cute inside mexican style ambience , alot of seating , booths for a couples night out or a party. There were many different ethnicities eating here. We ordered the mole enchiladas, side of guac, and albondigas soup!! The chips salsa and guac were bomb, spicy salsa ,the guac very creamy y tasty!!! The mole enchiladas were good , different to what we are used too more on the sweeter side than spicy , which is what we prefer, but still very good , big portion. The albondigas , definetly do not not recommend AT ALL . Got my plate dug in and tasted the broth and what a dissapointment from a mexican restraunt!! It tasted like celery and celery only !! I still didnt want too give up on this bowl so I took out ALL the celery added salt, pepper and still no flavor pop. I tried the albondigas and they were bland as bland can be nothing in those albondigas , water!! I still didnt want too give up on it and I asked for some spice. Chillie paste and cut up serrano was brought out , I added that hoping some flavor POP and that was the end , I gave up I couldnt pull no flavor out those albondigas. I sent the albondigas back and told them that they were just not good at all and had no flavor , they did apologize they took it off our tab and did ask me twice if I wanted anything else and I really wasnt craving anything other than a caldo. Such a dissapointment of albondigas!!! And there was nothing else other than menudo as a soup on menu!! They were nice , friendly staff and the service was great!! My only bad experiece was just those water, celery tasting albondigas!!!recommendation take them off the MENU!!!

    very cute mexican decor so i enjoyed the ambiance, the service was also great all staff were super friendly. food wise i enjoyed my chimichanga but i didn't really like either of the dishes that my friend got (chicken molé and steak something), they have large portions and some really solid lunch deal options

    Chicken Fajita plate
    Arvind S.

    I'd passed by this place so many times while coming to Safeway and contemplated going in for a meal but somehow never ever did. Well finally, on Christmas Eve, we decided to go here from work for lunch. They told me that this is one of the older restaurants in the area and that they used to frequent this place for large Mexican meals and some great drinks. I was recommended the chicken fajitas and it was a no brainer to go for it for me. The fajitas came out sizzling along with some onions, green peppers, zucchini and more. Tender, fresh chicken really well cooked/grilled. I had it with the spicy sauce on the side (that I asked for) which was great, felt freshly ground and home made for sure. The plate came with small portions of rice, beans, guacamole, sour cream and corn tortillas (you also have the choice of flour). IMO, the portions were appropriate for you to have a really good satisfying meal, and not feel over the top heavy. Some of the portions on the other plates my colleagues got were larger. The beans were not the typical refried beans but were brown beans in a small cup. Would've loved to try some of the drinks, probably for next time. I expect to be back at this Mexican diner with my friends soon. The restaurant was fairly spacious and had a Mexican home-style feel/ambience to it. Service was quick and prompt despite the decent crowd in there.

    Enchiladas Suizas

    Immediately greeted when we walked in, no wait at all. Very friendly staff. The food was solid. They do have a small bar which is cool, especially for this area of Sunnyvale. The ambience is very aesthetic. We will be returning!

    Chimichanga
    YJ L.

    Love their friendly service and the ambiance! Saw lots of families as well as couples and diners of all ages eating here. It wasn't too busy that it took a long time to get seated, and it was fairly lively for dinner time. Camarón/shrimp quesadilla: loved it! Sometimes, shrimp tastes like a fish tank to me, but I took the gamble and this was one of the best shrimp quesadillas I've ever had! It's straightforward and you get exactly what you expect. No surprises-- just a tortilla with cheese and shrimp like they said :) Chimichanga: okay, so after eating the chips and salsa (which were also great) and the quesadilla, we were too full to eat the chimichanga in its entirety.... But the portion I had was alright--a little too bean-ful for my taste (especially because we have beans on the side), but it wasn't awful. Not sure if I would order it again, but I'm also not typically a person who orders this dish. Women's bathroom: one of the stall doors won't close, so I walked in on someone, but we're all girls' girls, so she helped me keep the door closed so no one after me would walk in on me. Wishing the bathroom was just a little cleaner. Ample parking in the Safeway plaza. I think for a quick fix, I'd be happy to dine here, or if I were living locally to this spot, I'd come more often!

The strawberry margarita was so disappointing, very ice slushy and watered down. Not boozy. No strawberry flavor either, despite looking the part. Uneven pours for the table. Unfortunate.

    I had the chance to try Mayan Kitchen Food and it was a good experience. Ended up trying takeout of…read morethe food through the hubby and enjoyed. The food came in on time so we really appreciated that. I tried the Cochinita Pibil which came with rice and plantains. I liked that the meat was soft and full of flavor as well as the rice. The salty and sweet from the plantains went well together. The other item i tried was the Pollo cochinita pibil bao bun. This was also very yummy and full of flavor. I definitely enjoyed that the bao was so soft. Overall, it was a solid experience and would want to go back to try more!
