Great service. Clean. But the food was bland. I was surprised with how high the reviews were for the food. But I’ve lived in Santa Fe and had amazing food there. So I always compare food to the experience. Won’t go back. But if you are a local and like this place I can understand why it got good reviews.

Amazing atmosphere, absolutely loved the fact they had the lights off and allowed the natural outdoor light to brighten the restaurant.
Really kind service , one of the workers actually greeted our 1yr 5 m old baby, got him to smile and laugh, brought us a highchair as well so he could be safe and sit at the table as well.
Very polite, food was fantastic! I ordered the Enchiladas and my love got herself the chicken fajitas as well as a Mango Margherita and I got myself a Negra modelo which came with a small lime wedge.
My meal cost around $12 and a couple dollars for the drink. About the same for the other meal except her drink was around $7 or so
Total came out to around $41 for the both of us to eat which was a great price .
We will be returning ALOT more

Get. Some!!
Flavor is King, and this dish had it!
Ordered the Pollo El Mezcalito ($8.99) , which is chicken with rice, beans (if you want), some kinda red sauce and cheese sauce with mushrooms and onions. Dang! Delicious.
At first I was like, “Where’s the chicken!?”, cause it’s not a while chicken breast, it’s cut up pieces of such. But you know, it works.
Only complaint was that I ESV out of rice and had to ask for more. They charged me $2.99 for it, which I thought was a bit steep since I didn’t get any beans, but I was so happy with the taste that I said nothing and just enjoyed it.
Tortilla chips are a bit stout for me, thick and grainy, but the sauce is very tasty!
Looks like an abandoned fast food drive through place from the outside, but I’ve learned that the best Mexican meals are from such places, so I never fear and I just dive right in.

This place is top-notch! The queso is the best I’ve ever had! Chips were fresh and delicious. The owner recommended the Hawaiian Tacos, so I got those and they were amazing! Served with his homemade sweet habanero sauce. SO good! Highly Recommend!

Had fajitas with shrimp and chicken I believe it had white cheese sauce over the top wasn’t as greasy as it’s competitor in town was absolutely fresh and hot and very delectable to the pallet. Friendly quick service. Clean building nice tables. This picture is from another visit where I had their tacos such tender and delectable carnitas I devoured them in like five minutes. For one person with a tip it is around 20$ for a delicious meal. I highly reccomend one of the best restaurants in this town great seating excellent environment good service and top notch food. 11/10 visited on 7/29 my fourth time eating here got Mexicans fajitas a virgin blended strawberry margarita and queso

Ordered a veggie taco salad and margarita.
They got it perfect, and it was very filling.
I would definitely be back if I’m back in Knoxville Iowa.

We eat here whenever we are in town. The food is absolutely delicious, no matter what you order. The service is very good. This time, they had one waitress and a cook . We were a little worried but, I must say, that waitress took care of all the tables very professionally and with a smile. You could see she was a bit stressed but she powered through! We will be eating here again for sure!

The food was very bland and the entrees were small, especially for the $12 price. The salsa was sweet. Disappointing overall.
