Customer Reviews
This place is amazing from start to finish. The food is packed with flavor, fresh, and clearly made with care. Every dish came out hot and perfectly seasoned, and the portions were generous. The staff was super friendly and made us feel welcome right away. The atmosphere is fun, comfortable, and perfect for hanging out with family or friends. Easily one of the best Mexican restaurants I’ve been to, I’ve been here many times in the past.
I chose delivery for my first time so I’ll reserve my opinion on the atmosphere. This is 5⭐️ authentic Mexican food. I was blown away with the Campechano, Tostadas, and Empanadas for my first choices. And for dessert… omg, their Tres Leche was the best I’ve ever had. I had to call back and thank them- I have a strong feeling their consistency will be top-shelf. We highly recommend!!! Just wow!! John & Donna Your neighbors
Just moved into town and tried this restaurant out. I am SUPER picky with my horchata but this place really nailed it. My husband is picky with his chilaquiles and actually enjoyed it from here. In his own words "the flavor is definitely there" We will be ordering again!
3rd time eating here, the tacos are unbelievable. Steak and al pastor were seasoned just right. This is my go to Mexican spot. The owner Victor was very friendly and you can see the passion in the food. Very authentic
The Mexican food here is mediocre at best. Mexitacos which is a few minutes away is far better. We had the chicken chimichanga, chicken enchiladas, and the steak sopas here. The chicken chimichanga was just ok, and it needed more Mexican flavor. The chipotle sauce on top had zero flavor. The chicken enchiladas were loosely wrapped and weren’t that great. The green sauce on top was good, but it needed more on top. The rice and beans weren’t good at all. The steak sopas were mediocre. They would of been better if they were topped with salsa and refried beans on tops. That’s how they are properly made at most authentic Mexican restaurants. The sopas lacked any flavor. The people were very nice here, but there are far better Mexican restaurants.
