The menu is handwritten on poster boards with English descriptions to help non-Spanish speaking people like me. You place your order and then have a seat at one of the tables to wait for them to bring it out to you. I tried the Angel Rice which is made with steak, chicken, shrimp and assorted vegetables mixed with a cheese sauce. It was a huge portion and absolutely delicious. A also added a taco on the side just to try one, and it was also quite tasty. Washed it all down with a cold bottle of Mexican Coke. I had been wanting to try this place and am so glad I finally had a chance to do so. If you haven't tried it yourself, do yourself a favor and check it out! You won't regret it.

A small produce section. You're able to make calls to your home land and they have a small clothing section. Now let's get to the restaurant side. They have plenty of seating for dining in. They serve beer that you can eat with your meal. The service is neutral. Place your order at the window. The topping are a-la carte, so you get them yourself. Got me that's perfect because I always order extra cilantro and they never put enough. My chicken tacos were phenomenal. I also had an asada which was good too but the chicken was just way better. I am glad to find good authentic food in a small town.

It's always a bit worrying to experience that. This was our first time at this restaurant. Sorry to say we won't be eating there again. Service was friendly and prompt no complaints there at all. I always appreciate kind people in hospitality. It's a tough job. Especially if the place is empty. As far as the food: Salsa was sweet we aren't used to that but perhaps that's a thing. Chips were okay. Beans were sweet! Some said they tasted like the flavor baked beans. Unusual taste. Tacos were okay but plain. Corn tortillas were steamed and not grilled or anything to give them extra flavor and texture. Other dish was Habaneros Mango Chicken it was extra sweet and reminded us of Asian food. Not bad per se but didn't finish as it was too sweet. Both dishes were chicken and we had pork in our food too. Something to be aware of in case of religious avoidance or allergies.
