This place is a hidden gem. It has the typical Mexican restaurant feel but the food, drinks and…read moreservice are above par. The staff was friendly and our waitress was friendly, talkative and fun. She definitely added to our experience. I hope we get her again the next time we go. The place is clean and large enough for 2-10 people in a group. They have typical booths, tables and is spaced out enough that you don't feel too crowded. The food was delicious! We got something with a bed or Mexican rice covered in chicken and queso. It came with 3 tortilla shells. The flavor was amazing and the portions were more than enough for two of us to share. Our friends got the burritos and they said it was one of the best they had. Now the drinks! Wow! They have a sangria margarita that will go down way too smoothly and warm you up right away. So good! We are definitely going back for those! Can you tell from all the exclamation points how good it was? LOL. We will be back and I hope that your experience is just as good.

Overall the meal was enjoyable, so why the three stars? It felt like everything had an upcharge. Chips - one bowl otherwise $1.99 Salsa - one bowl otherwise $1.99 Shrimp tacos come plain, want onions and cilantro - 0.79 for each one added on (total of add'l $1.58) Tacos - Want to add on the quac, sour cream, lettuce and pico - also an add'l upcharge Horchata was $6.50 and 90% ice I've never experienced this at other Mexican restaurants I have gone to and since their food wasn't a stand out, there is no reason to go for hidden extras again.

Its such a convenient location to get to, the space is so bright and cheery, and I think they even have a drive-thru for takeout orders! I also appreciate that they have a full bar, though I haven't tried their margaritas yet. For dinner, I ordered chimichangas and my husband ordered fajitas. I need to remember that chimichangas are delicious, but I prefer enchiladas. That's on me, not them. I still enjoyed them, and ate all the leftovers I brought home! My husband really liked his fajitas too. Overall this is just a good, solid Mexican restaurant. The food has been really good both times I've visited, and the service has been super friendly. I will continue to eat here anytime I'm craving Mexican food, and will continue to recommend it to others as well!

We stopped here for cinco de mayo. It was busy but not too busy. We got seated right away…read more The atmosphere is decorated in a very festive manner with cool wall art covering many walls. The waitress was friendly and busy. The seating was a little tight depending on where you sit. Our table was almost blended into the one next to us. The food was good. The menu is partially in Mexican, so be prepared to either use a translation app or guess what you're getting based on photos. We ordered or thought we ordered the #9 lunch but got something a bit different but still very tasty. The plate was full of all the standard stuff, beans, rice, salad, main dish. The chicken under the cheese was delicious and moist. The beans and rice were flavorful without being dry. The salsa was unique. It was something of an acquired taste. The margarita flight was delicious! The prickly pear and traditional were our favorites. The blue one was a close second or third. The mango with the spicy rum was our least.

I'm so glad I finally tried this place! We celebrated my friend's birthday here and I appreciate…read morethat they can cater to a big group. First of all the chips and salsa were amazing! I don't know what they put in their salsa but I can't stop thinking about it. The food was delicious! I got alambre with no cheese (later on was told by staff that alambre is fajitas with cheese so I basically got fajitas), my friends got a shrimp plate, burrito plate, tacos and three meats plate. The service was ok when we went. It was busy so we had a hard time finding our server to get more salsa or drinks and my vegan friend had a hard time getting her guacamole and chips that they forgot about. It also wasn't vegan friendly and that was the only option my friend had. Other than the wait and it being busy, I appreciated that our waiter brought out a sombrero and we sang happy birthday to our friend. I would go back here again because the food was delicious, but I'm mindful that I may have to wait on service when they're busy.

A new dish to us - tomato, onion and peppers slow cooked in a stone bowl, with chicken breast. The sous chef came to our table to explain the traditional bowl and process of cooking. It comes with sides of black beans, guacamole, rice, cilantro, chopped onions, pickled onions and tortillas. A special meal and absolutely delicious. Friendly, attentive service. Hubby had a margarita. I had an non-alcoholic drink made with grapefruit juice and no added sugar. (The server kindly offered that because I am watching carbs.) Great place for a date night.
