    Guacamole
    Bobby L.

    OMG...what a great place in a small town. The guacamole was some of the best I have ever had. The Hawaiian Chicken was perfect. The waiter made excellent suggestions and the food came out quickly. What else can you ask for?

    Chips and salsa
    Janet G.

    We were visiting family and decided to give this place a try. We were seated right away by a very friendly hostess. She also took our order. The tea was in huge glasses and fresh brewed. We were served chips with salsa in a carafe and given 2 small bowls.. (I love it when it's served this way!). The chips were crunchy and the salsa was great! We ordered the Mexi Bowl which we split because the server said it was large. It had grilled marinated chicken, black beans, rice, fajita veggies, shredded cheese, guacamole and lettuce. I'm glad we split it because it was HUGE! It was also delicious!! We'll definitely be back when we come back to town!!

    Very good! Has improved a lot recently! I had the Fajita Quesadilla with Steak and was very pleased with the quality and flavor. Our server was so kind and prompt even when the restaurant was packed. I will definitely be back! Probably the best sit-down dining experience in Dawson

    piña colada

    Great food great service super cold beer in a giant glass for a low price. This is my favorite place for Mexican food. The trio meat on rice and cheese was awesome. The salsa is always made just right with fresh ingredients. The restaurant was full but we still did not have long to wait. The staff was very quick.

    Have always had fast service here. To me, the food wasn't bad, just not to my liking for Mexican.

    This place is an unrealistically amazing find for Albany, but it is real and it is Amazing!…read more It's located on the edge of the east side of Albany. The location ls not the best. Just be aware of your surroundings, which is the case for anywhere you go. Upon entry, the decor is so fun and inviting. It's not a very big restaurant, but seating is laid out perfectly. Saturday night, packed, but we were seated immediately in a clean and cozy booth. All the employees there knocked customer service outta the park. Our server: Angel, was THE BEST! Very attentive, quick, and so friendly. I've visited most of the Mexican restaurants in Albany, and they have the best chicken chimichangas I've had so far. No complaints on prices. Two chimichangas, rice&beans, guac, sour cream, lettuce, tomatoes for like $11. Of course free chips and salsa which was amazing. This is my new go to for Mexican cuisine. And I live across town within a half mile of many others. With that said; My only complaint is they're not located on my side of town. This place is a win for Albany and I hope they stay just as they are.

    My fiance and I were in town for work and needed a good dinner. Based on the reviews, we stopped in…read moreLos Molcajetes. My fiance has a thing about a restaurants attached to a gas station(even though they are separate businesses). I assured her that the good reviews would overcome her bias. We were not disappointed! Our server, Alvero, was one of the most gregarious and accommodating servers ever. I asked for hot sauce and he had the kitchen whip up this oil and chili based sauce that really added what I needed. We ordered the texana fajitas and they were sizzling for awhile after they arrived. They were the perfect mix of proteins and veggies cooked beautifully. Everything tasted great and we were really glad we stopped in for dinner! If you're in town and in the mood for Mexican, you need to try this place!

    We were driving back from the Falling Waters State Park and needed something to eat before we got…read moreback into town. We saw a billboard off the highway for this restaurant, so we decided to give it a try. Location is a little unsuspecting because it is dark and next to a dollar tree, but the interior is quite large and well decorated. We were seated right away, and the server gave us chips and salsa immediately. The chips were nice and fresh and warm, and the salsa was fantastic. ServerO is great. He gave us good recommendations and said that everything that has a hat on the menu is usually their most popular. As for the food, we ordered the fajitas mix. I had chicken, beef, and shrimp for two. It is about $27 and came with a lot of food. Definitely not for two, maybe even three. The rice plate came with rice, beans, avocado, as well as two sets of tortillas, which is about three each. It came in a serving plate and was overall pretty good. Would recommend getting again for the amount of food and the taste. We also ordered the torta. Unfortunately, for this one, it wasn't that great. The torta is just a sandwich, pretty much, with whatever kind of meat you have inside and some tomatoes and lettuce. We got the carne asada, but it was super dry and chewy. Would not recommend the carne asada and the torta. This one was about $13, I believe. In total, it was around 55 with tax and tip for a party of 4, so it was actually pretty well priced. We left pretty full, so I would recommend, but wouldn't say it was the best food we have had but good enough for us on the road drive back.

    If you've read any of my reviews before, you know I like to be greeted and seated quickly. They…read moredid that here. We got steak and chicken fajitas, three dips, and some adult beverages. The food was deelishus. The service was a little bit slow, but all worth it
