I want to go back and try this but the last time was a bust. The only other two guys there were…read morevery very loud and made no effort to reduce their obnoxious activity. The lady who was working there took my order at first and then went back to the kitchen to prepare it. In the face of the disturbing noise by the two, I decided not to stay and wait for my food. I did not want to stiff the waitress/cook so I put a $20 bill on the table to pay for probably 4 chips and 2 drinks out of my diet cola and left. I never did see the waitress/cook again. Topeka is blessed with several good mexican food places so I would think this place would be more accommodating. I urge you to try this place only if the many others are closed.

First time I have been to this location. It's not much to look at. Table was very wonky. I don't…read morethink the customers cared. It seems like a lot of regulars. The service was quick and attentive. The food was ok. I had a steak burrito and rice. The steak was a little on the dry side. Not terrible in my opinion. My partner had tamales with rice and beans. They definitely were not impressed and stated on leaving that they would never go back. They get decent reviews and had a good crowd for a Wednesday night. But Mexican is Mexican is Mexican in Topeka. There really is no one restaurant that has separated themselves by doing it different or better.

I love supporting local & Jorge really went above & beyond to provide a wonderful meal for our family! Joey & I picked it up right when we arrived in Topeka after an 8hr drive from Denver, and Jorge was just the sweetest, thanking us for choosing his business & sharing his excitement for our upcoming meal. Soooo sweet!! We had 25 people & still had so many leftovers, and it was all packaged perfectly. We had a crunchy taco & burrito bar with 4 huge pans with chicken/veggies, ground beef taco meat, rice & beans. It came with 2 huge pans of chips, as well as half pans of queso, salsa, cilantro, onions, smoked jalapeños, shredded cheese, lettuce & sour cream. The chicken & veggies were phenomenal, the taco meat was perfectly seasoned, and everything was piping hot! And most importantly, none of it was too salty. Too bad i didn't get any pics, everyone just dug right in! Just wow.. many thanks Jorge & team for the most incredible meal for my family. From mine to yours, gracias! We can't wait to come back- you're now our fav Mexican spot in KS :)

He gave us one snarky look and ignored us the entire time. He went to every other table asking how everyone and their grandmothers were doing and meanwhile he didn't even once ask us how we were doing. Let alone if we wanted the check. The younger waitresses and waiters were friendly so they're the reason we stayed but I will not be returning simply bc of how astonished I was at the owners rude attitude. The saddest part is that we were the only Latinos in the restaurant and we tried saying hi and starting a conversation but we may as well have been dogs in the corner of the room. You're better off going to Taco Bell Edit: I assume it was the owner but maybe it was the lead on shift or manager

You can order them cold if your not going to eat them immediately or freeze them, or you can order hot to eat soon. The lady that runs this small but has great food makes the place feel like family.

During the Christmas holidays you can order tamales to take home (they are unbelievable)! The enchiladas are perfectly seasoned and the white cheese queso will swear you off melted velveeta with salsa forever. Pay attention where you sit.

The restaurant was decorated nice for the FIFA games-which several customers were sitting g up at the bar top eating/drinking watching the games. Our server cane to the table with chips and salsa, the chips did not taste fresh and were cold. Getting hot fresh chips is always a plus so they missed it on that. I ordered a Mango Tango Alcohol drink, I didn't really taste any alcohol in it. I had been craving Nopales so my mom and I decided to share the molcajete dinner which has steak, chicken, chorizo, shrimp, nopales and grilled onions. It definitely was enough for us to share-I even had leftovers. This dish is a little pricey but so worth it! I wish it had more nopales in it-either you like them or you don't! Everyone enjoyed their meal and our server was friendly.
