    Passing through heading to Dallas, looked up a Mexican restaurant that could accommodate mine and…read moremy wife's Lenten appetite and saw this place on Yelp. Thought we'd give it a try seeing as it was 10 minutes off I-35. Found the small place and it was exactly what we were looking for! The chips and salsa was super tasty, the half and half tea was on point, and you can't go wrong with a Mexican coke! Ordered the cheese enchiladas plate and the wife got a quesadilla. We were pleasantly satisfied and they hit the spot. Tbh though, the beans and rice won my heart being so flavorful and delicious. The service was superb and I appreciated their thoughtfulness of checking on us to make sure we were doing ok. All in all, we highly recommend you visit them if you're in the area, we got a table quick around 7 pm and it was a quaint epic time! Try it soon and you won't regret!

Their homemade chips are light and crispy, and their salsa is super flavorful while not overly spicy. It hits that happy medium between my husband and me. Breakfast is also great. You go in and pretty much grab a table unless there's a line with people waiting. Service is always friendly and efficient. Prices are fair. Typical mom and pop type interior with a mixture of booth seating and tables with metal chairs. It's always clean. Branch out and try something new. Highly recommend.

    A reservation for this restaurant was made for a group and was specified that the group would need…read morethe space from 6pm -9pm. This was confirmed by the restaurant at the time of reservations and on prior occasions the manager has said this is no problem. The group has 12 people in it and so meals are bought for 12 people which half order alcoholic beverages as well. The group also pays a 20% gratuity. This is perfect, but we had a server who decided he didn't want to take care of the group and would interrupt the game being played frequently and trying to rush us out. He even went as far as telling us that they are closing early. The server mentioned his name is Fernando A. but when asked to remind me of his name he lied and states his name is Javier. We let them know we would be out by 9pm and we had previously confirmed we had till 9pm and the server states "that if we ever come back no server will take care us our table" then states "your not wanted here". This group plays a card game and we sit in the back we clear our dishes off and clean up after ourselves at the end. All that's left is a couple glasses and to finish cleaning the area. This is highly rude and an inappropriate way to care for customers. I would never in a million years eat or recommend this restaurant to others. Fernando A was a terrible server and very rude and inappropriate throwing a "baby fit" because he had to stay and do his job. As for the food it was ok, the area near the bathroom smells of sewerage so this is a turnoff when eating at a restaurant. So all in all I do not recommend this restaurant to anyone. I think that the staff and the smell is a overwhelming amount of evidence that you should beware of going there.

I went for dinner and I was the only person in the restaurant on a Monday night. The server was sitting in the corner hiding behind an opened menu talking on his cell phone. After some time waiting (the bartender sat me) he eventually took my order. Even though the restaurant was empty my food took 40 mins. When I complained after 30 he assured me it would be out in a few minutes. I ordered the mixed grill Delicioso with seafood which when it arrived had been sitting cooking so long the fish was jerky. There were two tiny overcooked pieces of carnitas. Everything else was over cooked. So disappointing. After 25 visits this is likely my last. Clearly the place has fallen apart.
