Wonderful first time experience there last week. Was with a large group for my girlfriends birthday party dinner celebration. Excellent service, the staff was very friendly and accommodating. In addition the food was delicious. Highly recommend ordering the parapadilla, four different meats (steak, grilled chicken, spicy Mexican pork and chorizo), along with rice, beans, peppers, cactus. One of the best meals I’ve ever had. Will come again soon.

Great little unassuming hidden local gem. Came here by accident looking for another place and was happy it happened. Drinks were made with fresh squeezed juices and the food felt authentic. Met the family that owns and runs the restaurant who were very accommodating. Would definitely recommend!

This Restaurant is the real meaning of an authentic Mexican food. We went on Sunday night for dinner for two people. When you enter the place you feel the touch from the decorations. We were seated and a menu was given to us. The waiter and staff are very polite and professional. The food were served 10 minutes sharp after we ordered. So here you will not wait long if you are hungry or in a rush. We ordered iguana tacos which were the best tacos i have ever had in my life for affordable price and fajita mix (beef, chicken and shrimps). The presentation is very good and the taste are perfect. Fresh ingredients is the key for the taste I believe. It was hot and full filing. The prices are little bit high for the fajita plate $28, but why to blame them with this high inflation and trying to make a profit. I would totally recommend this local business who is owned by a family who is working hard to give the best fot Staten island and to make a living. If you are near by Staten island or you are a resident you should consider trying this amazing place. And you will not regret it.give it a try

The Cubano sandwich was incredibly tasty. Highly recommend it. Also really liked the Iguana tacos. Rest of the tacos were normal Mexican flare. We had a pitcher of the passion fruit margarita. It was good.

Fantastic menu!! Covers everything and everyone!! So reasonably priced, especially in these hard times. Awesome food!! Golden gem in Staten Island. Met a couple from San Antonio who said it was the best Mexican food they have had in NYC. WHAT AN ENDORSEMENT!!

Authentic Mexican restaurant, very warm and friendly service. Sangria is excellent, love the shrimp fajitas, Mexican coffee really good too. I would suggest offering chips and salsa and if the music could be a little lower and less club like.

I’d seen this place around for a while now and it is quite big, with an outdoor space adjacent to the lot behind the next door lim service building. They had recently done up their exterior. The interior remains festive and lit with loud music and televisions showing sports, usually. It’s a convenient location near the train stop and also right off Amboy.
I came for a bite later at night after work and there were only two waiters running the floors. It wasn’t empty and there were perhaps two louder parties, one at the bar and one at the tables. So service felt a little sparse.
The food was mediocre but priced reasonably for the portions. It will fill you up. The gambas de ajillo were served lukewarm on a plate, contrary to how they would usually be served in hot oil. The pork skin quesadilla was filled abundantly with boiled pork skin. Do not order this if you are expecting a crunchy chicharron. The meat was well flavored, but the tortilla used was very thick. It held together well, though, and was expectedly filling. The sangria they have was a bit lacking in much punch of flavor.
Overall, not a bad place to satisfy some cravings.

I got the chicken enchilada, comes with rice and beans.
My friend got grilled fish, also came with rice and beans. The sangria was tasty but we needed an extra shot in it to make it work. The food was fresh but too bland. The atmosphere is nice. We sat outside
