Fantastic happy hour. We had tostado ceviche for an appetizer which was excellent. Our dinners (Chile Verde and Quesadillas) were even better. Service was perfect; with elcoming, attentive, and professional. We will definitely return!

Thanks to our waiter ‘Chill’, we had a great dinner experience. Food was hot, fresh, and came out fast. Come take a look next time you’re in this area for an authentic Mexican meal.

Picked this restaurant based on reviews but I honestly don’t know what all the hype is about. The food is fine, but just the typical American style Mexican food that you get in any restaurant. We were hoping for great food being in So Cal, but we can get the same in NJ. And the margaritas were just horrible! The worst part was that the waiter charged us for the most expensive margarita too! Had I known, I would have said something, but I thought it was the house margarita and didn’t complain. In all the bill was almost $300 for 5 of us. If you go, beware what you’re being ‘sold’ and keep expectations low.

Best mexican food in the desert. I’m here with my wife once a week and I love the steak rancheros. We usually eat at the bar but there’s plenty of booths and tables. Get there early – the place is usually full by 4pm…Great service, excellent atmosphere…

I liked the atmosphere, the bar area is nice to have a beer and appetizers, they do have a happy hour menu from 3-5pm. The food was OK not bad not super good, it was just OK. The service was good. The food its not authentic mexican food, but more like mex-american. We will be back to try other dishes and see how we feel about it. A+ on the rice it was cooked on point and fluffy.

Very popular, very hip, very crowded, very noisy, very small restaurant, excellent food. On a Saturday evening, our first time here, with no reservations we were told 40 minute wait to be seated. We waited 45. After being seated we were told kitchen is busy so expect a delay. I don’t know how long we waited. It was worth the wait. Our enchiladas and taco were great! The enchiladas were smothered in enchilada sauce just the way we like them. We hate dry enchiladas. The chicken taco was crunchy and very flavorful. Rice and beans were exquisite. Everything was cooked to perfection and served at the correct temperature, not too hot and not too cold on very hot plates. A word about the staff – hostess and waiter, initially, were unfriendly and matter-of-fact stressed by the overload of work from an overcrowded restaurant. After 9 pm, when all customers, who were waiting, were finally seated, we finally got a smile and a friendly word from our waiter. On our way out we thanked the hostess and got her to smile and be friendly. Would we do this again??? Yes we would!

They currently have a lunch special of $2.00 off the regular priced menu. Order a combination plate of enchiladas and a Chile relleno. Food taste really good. Staff was really friendly and attentive. We will definitely stop back by when in the area again.
