Visited here with a large
group for lunch. We started with chips and dips, which were pretty standard—fine, but nothing special for a Mexican spot.
For my main, I ordered the fish tacos and was really disappointed. The fish was fried to the point of being dark brown, almost overdone, and the flavour just wasn’t there. The spicy dip served on the side didn’t help much either; it lacked any real heat or kick.
Overall, the whole meal felt more “American-Mexican” than genuinely Mexican, and unfortunately it missed the mark for me.

The food and the food and atmosphere was absolutely fantastic. I wanted some authentic Mexican food and that’s exactly what I got. The chips and salsa came out to our table immediately and we got our drinks right away. I got the El pastor tacos and they tasted like I was in Mexico again. My wife got the Mexican burrito and it was enormous she was only able to eat a third of it. They also had a hot spicy salsa that we ordered and came for free. They also gave me a habanero sauce for my El pastor tacos it was absolutely delicious. The price was surprisingly low $34 for both of us and drinks. I would suggest sitting out on the patio on a nice day in the evening you are blocked by the building in the shade fantastic place and will head back there more than likely this weekend.

I love the atmosphere of this restaurant. The decorations, music, and overall look are spot on. The dish my husband and I had were really flavorful. I absolutely love their cheese sauce; it is on the spicy side if you aren’t used to spice. They serve chips before your meal comes, and I enjoy them. The server was very attentive and gave a great recommendation for my meal.
Caveat: Quite a few people who work here speak very little English and/or have an accent (saying this just to make people aware of it, I felt bad because I asked someone a question and I think I made them feel stupid. I am also somewhat accent impaired, but that is my fault, not theirs).

Came for the margaritas and steak fajitas. Loved the decor and ambience. Both were very delicious. Tried the Pina colada. A little too sweet for me but surprisingly slyly potent.

Five stars ALL the way around! The atmosphere is cozy and spacious, the staff are all friendly and our waiter specifically was amazing, and the food was delicious and super affordable.
My only regret is not coming here sooner! Highly recommend for a quick lunch or big dinner get together.

This was a good experience. This location is right on par with comparable Mexican options. The menu is what you expect, the food is good, and the prices are normal. The seating for a group of 6 is cramped. They try to have six chairs around a table that is made for 4 to be comfortable.

We visited for supper on a Saturday night. It was already pretty busy at about 5pm but we were immediately seated in a booth. It was somewhat cramped for four people, especially my tall husband, but at least it felt spaced away from other booths. Service was good throughout our visit. Chips and salsa bowls came out promptly, followed by drinks–except my husband’s beer, but the waitress returned to apologize for the delay, and it soon arrived. Our meals came out pretty quickly. I had the taco salad with shredded chicken, and it was really good. Chicken is such a basic thing but it’s so easy to serve dry and flavorless, and this was great. My teenage son ordered the flautas; he didn’t expect, as he put it, “there to be a salad on top,” but he scraped off the lettuce and toppings and still liked the flautas. I had part of one, too, and it was incredibly good. My husband enjoyed his beef street tacos, and my mother-in-law enjoyed her food, too; she’s a local but had never been there before. Our check came out quickly once we were done. Great meal overall!

Go off hours when it’s quieter.
I had a great waitress. I ate light. Only place I like their enchiladas sauce. Doesn’t have that weird aftertaste.
Can get a tiny guac for $2!

The food and service were good. The only thing I didn’t like was the *credit card processing charge* added to the check and we were not informed about it. They might argue it’s not much but I don’t appreciate when restaurants pass this charge onto customers.
Other than that, it was overall a good, quick lunch.

This was our first time eating at this establishment. Wonderful atmosphere, great service, and fantastic food. The trio sampler was on point. The margaritas were spectacular. I had the seafood fajitas and I’ve never had better. And, the restaurant (and restrooms) were very clean and very well decorated. Our waiter was wonderful (and they were very busy). We will definitely be back.
