Food was awesome and got here fast! I was in town visiting my boyfriend’s relatives and was craving Mexican food when I was recommended this place. I’m Mexican and I was a bit sceptical of a Mexican restaurant in the Midwest being good or authentic, but this place was the real deal and it was awesome. I couldn’t finish my food the portions are great, and I’m a big girl and you know we gotta eat. I recommend this place 100%. Muchos gracias por la servicio!

Get the lunch fajitas every single time, they come out hot in under 10 minutes. Chips hot and good salsa as well. Super quality and really filling all for just $10. I go here for lunch just about every time I’m in the area!

This restaurant has its good days, and then there are those that are not so good. Today, the food was plated very well, but the flavors were flat, missing. The best thing served was the French fries on my daughter’s plate.
This restaurant is closed and has been replaced by Azu l Agave.

By far the worst Mexican restaurant I’ve ever been to. I will never go anywhere else besides El Camino. We ordered take out from here today and my guacamole was dark green, my chimichanga was not fried like I asked, the beans were watery and bland, the cheese was watery and instead of giving me pinco de giyo they gave me tomatoes. Nothing was good about it. I was hangry and when I got my food I was more ticked off because it was disgusting and also cold. I never do reviews but this place really upset me. I thought it would be good because usually small businesses are but nope!

Steak taco’s, refried beans and Sangria Margarita. Beautiful evening to sit on the deck but it lead to being forgotten as far as service.

This place is awesome!! Conveniently located like two minutes off 32, the food is delicious and super fresh and hot (their rice is my favorite Mexican restaurant rice I’ve ever tried), huge menu, and the service is pretty much perfect. We got our food shockingly fast too, and were in and out of the building in barely 40 minutes. Our waitress was very friendly and helpful and was fast with drink refills. Definitely try this unassuming little restaurant!! So good!!
