Really wish we had come here sooner and not the day before they closed for the season. Even though we sat at the bar and got it to go order, our bartender was very nice very attentive. The owner actually came up and spoke with us. He let us take a picture of the menu which he says probably won’t change when they reopen on March 5. They may add some items. Hope this is helpful as the pictures we found online were pretty crappy. I had the fajita burrito which was phenomenal. The refried beans were freshly made. The guacamole was awesome. Definitely homemade same with the hot sauce. Highly recommend. We will definitely be back when they reopen. *** we didn’t notice it originally until I scanned my receipt into one of my apps. They charge a 10% fee for a to go order!!!!! buyer beware

Since they have opened my daughter and I have loved every meals we have had there. NEVER a bad plate, atmosphere is always amazing friendly smiles. Even had my daughter's sweet 16th bday there and everyone was awesome.

Ambiance was good, except for the ridiculously loud music. I got there at 7 on a Saturday night, only 3 other tables ordering, it took 40min to get food. Waitress had no interest in checking on us during this time. My boyfriend had steak fajita burrito, which tasted ok, but it wasn't hot and it was tiny for cost. I ordered the Chiquita. The enchilada was a log of cheese in a tortilla with no flavor. The beef burrito was saltier than necessary. The taco had dried meat and a chewy shell. Again, the waitress had no interest in checking on us after food was delivered. She also did not care that my plate only had one bite of each thing gone, maybe if the music wasn't so loud she could have heard me.

Absolutely the best Mexican food in the area! I ordered a fajita burrito to go and it was still so delicious after being in a to go box for 45 minutes before I ate it. Margaritas are also very good here!!

My husband and I ate here for the first time last night (6/14). Complimentary chips and salsa were delicious! Food and drinks were excellent. We had Riley (sp?) and she was an excellent server!!! Definitely one of the best servers we’ve ever had. She was so nice, funny, knew the menu well, and checked up on us at just the right times. Overall really great experience and we can’t wait to come back!
