    Authentic Mexican food. Everything I had was excellent. Great margaritas. If you're hungry for Mexican this is the place to go in Brunswick.

    Very authentic Mexican buffet. Definitely a dive but rather tasty. A little pricy for what it is but worth a visit if you're into dives.

A foodie fan I like to go home and attempt mimicking Flavors and these are unmatchable - Make no mistake you can find other good tacos but authenticity rings true here

    TLDR: You know a place is good if you go there twice in a day…read more So as I'm adjusting to my new life down here my compadre and have been perusing around town for good spots and some hits and misses but today was my turn and we came here. He ordered a burrito with asada and chorizo and I ordered the same curious to try out chorizo and once we got our order.......absolute crickets because we were in awe of how good it was. We just smiling and nodding our heads at each other with a mouthful murmurs of it's so good. Looking around while I'm in enthralled in the goodness of this burrito it definitely has a local street vendor vibe with a big seating area complete with a bar and TVs somewhat blasting mariachi music but it just added to the vibe. We could not stop talking about this place when we got back to work and I said I'm def going back for dinner to where he said man I'm still full but I'd def consider it. Well I went back later in the evening and it was still hopping like it was for lunch and a different girl was working the counter (a little less friendly then the lunch one but I get it it's busy in there) but still courteous and I ordered 3 tacos 2 asada and 1 chorizo (think I've found my fave) with a modelo (reasonably priced at 5 vs a 8 dollar michelob I had at longhorns a couple of weeks ago shame on you longhorns!) They were delivered and they were perfectly sized...not huge but portioned just enough to hit the spot. Just as tasty and flavorful as lunch was and place was just as busy only difference was they put the TVs on some ambient background and music that was a bit loud but not overwhelming to the vibe. So of course I let my broham know how good it is and he's still like man I'm full but I might pack up the fam and go.....and sure enough after I was settled back home who sends me a pic of his plate lol So definitely check this place out if you're in town and if you like chorizo, you're gonna love this place!

    On the road headed to FLA. I stated at the Sheraton right…read morenet door and was pleased to see the many positive Yelp reviews. I had the chicken fajitas and was pleasantly surprised at how good they were. The service was great and after just a few minutes my order came out fresh and hot. You get 5 flour tortillas and there was SO much chicken, I was very surprised and the food quality was excellent! The guacamole was exceptionally good. It comes with pico de gallo, rice and refries with cheese. You also get free chips and salsa. I was very disappointed with the salsa, clearly not house made. It tasted like maybe it was pace. Just runny like thick tomato juice and virtually no flavor. I can see why this place has such good reviews!

Plenty of tables this time of night and on a weekday but for some reading the hostess looked annoyed when we asked for a booth by the window? Once seated our server was right there. Got drinks and placed our orders. Started with some chorizo queso. Pretty tasty but not the best we've had. A decent started. I ordered chicken with chorizo and a burrito with rice. Pretty good. Chicken was overcooked and dry but tasted pretty good. Deb had the chimichangas with chorizo. It was ok. Decent flavors. An ok stop for dinner. Convenient if staying next door. Service was good but probably would go out of our way to go back.
