Dined here for the first time and we enjoyed it! Chips and salsa brought to the table right away. We ordered queso dip (large size), birria tacos, and the Philly cheesesteak tacos. Everything was delicious and was exactly what we needed after a long day of hiking outside in the cold. Our server was kind, he checked on us several times but wasn’t pushy. The one thing that could’ve been improved is not having the sound playing on the TV in the dining room because that was subtly in the background during all of our conversations.

The food here was fantastic. The service was fast, amazing and error free. The chips aren’t too greasy and the salsa is the right amount of heat. They give you so many chips it’s lovely. The shrimp fajitas were fantastic. I loved how we ordered and the food was ready in 10 minutes. That’s how service should be. I was not expecting this great of an experience but I was happily surprised. I’d totally come here again

The chips were a bit better than average, 4 stars.
The salsa was much better than expected, 4 stars.
The cheese dip was decent, 3.5 stars.
The entree, comprising two chalupas, was very fresh and looked appetizing on the plate. When it ate a bit flat, it dawned on me that there was no cheese on either chalupa. The dish was in grave need of the richness and tang that cheese provides. I dumped my salsa on one chalupa and my cheese dip on the other, and the meal was saved. But it seemed I had provided a lot of aid to an entree that should have been self-sufficient. 3 stars.
The side of rice was ample, and packed a pungent dose of annato (achiote), the ingredient that gives Spanish rice its characteristic color and flavor pop. 4 stars.
The bathroom was pretty clean, and the interior was festive and welcoming, 4 stars.
Service was great, 5 stars.

It was between lunch and supper. Service a little slow, but ok. If you use credit card 4% mark up I thought about little high. Food good. First time there. We were out sight seeing and came upon this place. Will come back

Absolutely amazing!
First time visiting was this evening and I was not disappointed. Their quesadilla fajitas are delicious. I tried one grilled chicken and one grilled steak – damn tasty!
If you’re looking for a chill place with a cool atmosphere, give this place a try.
Cheers, y’all.

Amazing Mexican food. Very authentic flavors and dishes. The menu has a huge variety of meals. Quite reasonable prices with lunch specials. Lots of room and very comfortable. The service was good; our server was quite competent, just not very outgoing. The food was prepared quickly and hot out of the kitchen.
Hard to see from the street as it is in the rear of building with minimal signage at the entrance. Drive on back- it’s worth it!

We almost always stop here when running errands near by, have been here dozens of times through out the years. They consistently bring out the best food, which always comes out quick. Love their chips and salsa, which is still included when you order to go!

Alex took great care of us from the moment we walked in the door. Order the guacamole, chunky. It’s seasoned well with great flavor. The tacos al pastor were delicious as well. Thank you for a wonderful meal. See you next time.
