Forgotten Ally
Took my wife out here for dinner, and for the two of us it ended up costing about $63. The food itself wasn’t bad, but it just didn’t feel worth the price.
I started off with two tacos — the meat had good flavor, but they barely came with any cheese. I had to order two sides of cheese at $2.25 each, so $4.50 just for cheese. After that, I ordered their $23 “big burrito.” The waitress was super nice and patient, told me it was huge and stuffed with meat. She wasn’t wrong about the size — it was massive — but it was about 97% rice, hardly any meat, and no cheese even though I asked for extra. The shell wasn’t folded right and fell apart the moment I tried to cut it.
The tacos were thrown together for appearance sake, barely anything was inside the shell all on top of the shell, so ratios were way of.
To be fair, the restaurant was spotless — clean bathrooms, clean kitchen, and friendly staff. But overall, for what I paid, I left disappointed. Honestly, even Chipotle felt like a better deal — more food, actually wrapped, unlimited toppings, and double meat for around $17.

Such a wonderful and unexpected experience! We were driving home from the Ice Castles and stumbled upon this gem, and we’re so glad we did. We honestly haven’t had great Mexican food in a long time, and this absolutely hit the spot.
The restaurant itself is immaculate — beautifully designed tables and chairs, warm atmosphere, and very inviting. The portions were incredibly generous and the food was delicious. To top it all off, they even sang happy birthday, which made the day feel extra special.
Our waiter was an absolute all-star — attentive, friendly, and made the entire experience even better. Thank you for such a memorable meal. Best of luck — we’ll definitely be back!

Wow. Surprising and impressive. New-ish Mexican restaurant in Rochester. Third location in a 3 location established/good group. What a huge investment. All new furnishings and decor. Service was on point at the bar, food was great and the kitchen delivered quickly. We just came in for an appetizer and they nailed it. We will be back.

Obsessed with their food and everyone is so friendly! They never disappoint. Dessert is also a must have. We have tried them all and honestly can’t choose a favorite. Fried ice cream, cheesecake chimis, and a classic churro… All so good! Such a great addition to Rochester!

The food was good but no wow factor.The portions were very good for the price point.Great variety.
The cocktails are tasty with a good variety offered.
Nice fresh atmosphere.
The service was lacking.The server was friendly but seemed to take sometime for drinks to arrive.Wait for the meals and brought to us by someone different.Never saw original server until check time
To be fair it was out first visit.Not totally disappointed and will try again

Super clean and upbeat place! Our server, Nicki, was so sweet and so helpful. She recommended the El Tellez which was fantastic. Was quick to refill our drinks and check on us. We own a restaurant and have discerning tastes and everything about our meal was perfect. muchos gracias!

Ordered takeout today from here for the sole reason of wanting their queso (only been here one other time but the queso was awesome, other food was average). Even got extra chips because last time we had left over queso… drove hour round trip just to find no queso in sight. Real day ruiner. I disputed with DoorDash and called restaurant to verify my refund. No apology just a “DoorDash will handle it”…. Got it. Husband got a $25 burrito that was 85% rice… not worth the price even remotely especially when they forget items and couldn’t care less about it. Both agreed chipotle would have been a better option. Will not return but I will miss the queso from that one time

I’m very disappointed. I ate here several times and I’ve eaten at the Epping location a lot and it had always been good prior to today. I ordered a taco salad and the shell was overcooked and inside it was so greasy that the bottom was saturated. I did call just to let them know and they did offer to remake it but I really dislike the parking situation over there so and it’s an inconvenience. I will just get food from the Epping store if I’m in the area. With taxes it’s almost 20 dollars for a taco salad and in my opinion the kitchen should be watching and not sending stuff like this out. The price of everything has gone up and I only get takeout a couple of times a month and this was such a disappointment

The drinks came out quick! And the food was great! What’s most important the waitress was excellent! She was quick to explain the differences in the dishes and make recommendations as we were not familiar with the menu. The guacamole was fresh and made right in front us in a lava bowl. Very tasty. I’ll be back…
