We were quickly seated by a smiling face and given drinks. Our waiter was so friendly and accommodating. The place was packed. It looked like it had been a diner in the past perhaps. The walls and ceilings were lined with vibrant art and papel picado in bright colors. We tried the ground beef queso and it was so full of flavor. It seemed scratch made with just the right balance of meat to cheese. We tried both flour and corn tortillas. I preferred the hearty corn, but the flour was equally delicious. The sauces are both amazing and I ate them with a spoon. I hope to return and try the empanadas, pupusas and the sopes.

It was one of the main reasons I came here. The chorizo needs to be cooked harder. I like it more when it's cooked crispy. I like the little charred bits. Same with the pork. It needs color. Brown food tastes good. Grey food not as much. The salsas are good. The hot is a salsa verde and it has a little heat. The fire is a red salsa and it's no joke. Seriously hot. If someone wanted to go here I wouldn't complain. If you asked me though I'd pick El Molcajete or La Fogata.

Best chicken I've ever tasted, not to sound dramatic! I suggest trying those and the Marimba Steak Fries. Their margaritas are also amazing. I find the Texas Margarita to be the most refreshing and tasty, so definitely give that one a try. Their prices also aren't insane like all the other restaurants around which is a HUGE plus. Now for the service; these people treat you like FAMILY if you treat them respectfully. They will learn your name and your order in a very short amount of time. I go there often and am always greeted with warm smiles and even a few hugs. It feels so safe there and the ambiance is fun and peaceful. Oh, they also have the best outdoor patio around these parts. It's huge, welcoming, and amazing to sit out there and get some sun on nice days. You definitely won't be disappointed going here, enjoy!

It hurts to hit the three star review but our most recent visit was very sub par…read more We came hungry and ready to unwind with a margarita, it was the cinco de mayo holiday and we wondered if there were any specials. We were told no, but there was a sign on the door showing free queso for the day of May 5. So we ordered two margaritas at $10 a piece, asked about the free queso and was then told oh yes it is free, and then ordered tacos to share. The margarita was served in a hot (fresh out of the dishwasher) glass, the rim was not salted and with five melting ice cubes. The mix concentrated at the bottom and the tequila added on top. It was not a good margarita, and my husband's was the same. The queso came out and it was like warm and still cold around the edges but hot in the core. The tacos were delicious. So it was a conflicting visit, as we were given the check I noted it charged for the queso. As I went to pay I noted the queso price and inquired about it being free for the day. He said oh yes if you mentioned it, then it gets taken off. That didn't sit with me well, because not everyone may question it. All in all we have come here a lot over the years and had some great times but maybe this is not the best place for the cinco de mayo holiday. It may be awhile before we are back again.

On this day, I was lured by the prospect of some Tacos al Pastor. I was not disappointed. They provide three large tacos with generous fillings. They also gave me a very good tomatillo salsa to top them with. With good rice and frijoles this was way, way more than I needed for lunch. I consider it a bargain when I get two very nice meals out of one platter. I asked for and received well flavored corn tortillas. Ms T broke form and ordered a taco salad. She also liked it very much and since it was also very generous, she had two more meals later. I have to say, looking forward to stopping at some of these places on a "regular" basis when we drive through the area, makes the 1,000-mile trip a little easier. El Nopan in Shelbyville remains on our regular list.

And not like one or two pieces were that way, every piece of steak and chicken was that way. It was so disappointing. My fajitas also had giant chunks of onions, not slices, but an entire half of an onion. The rice and beans were very good, even the side of lettuce, tomatoes and guacamole were all fresh. So I don't know if we just got extremely unlucky with our meals. But it was bad enough of an experience that we will not be back.
