★★★★★ 5.0 girishc78 · Dec 2025

Loved the food, went for lunch. Ordered chicken soup (ok), chicken burrito, tostadas (veg) and veg taco. Came with rice and beans. Was awesome. You can mix and match couple of different items, think 3 for $20. Order their hot sauce, which is made from some chili that tastes burnt but great. Finished it off with tres leches, again really good. Service was superb. Our new go to spot for lunch.

Really cozy and colorful restaurant. The service was great and the food was excellent. I had the chicken fajitas and the meat was nicely marinated. The BYOB is a pluts too.

I haven’t been here in a long time and it’s still worth it. The place is immaculate. Service is good. Their food hits the spot every time and for Princeton it has their own parking lot! The only nuisance is the 3.5% credit card surcharge. You can avoid that if you use a debit card or cash

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Jay · Jan 2026

Ordered the veg fajita and was quite disappointed. The flavors were very bland, and all the vegetables tasted the same with no real seasoning or distinction. For a Mexican restaurant, I expected more bold and well-balanced flavors. The overall experience did not meet expectations, especially for the main course

★★★★☆ 4.0 Gabriella · Nov 2023

A local spot for authentic, delicious Mexican food. The menu is expansive and has many vegetarian options. Their appetizer chips are superb, and I would definitely recommend the Fish Tacos as an entree. Surprisingly, the Nachos were quite soggy and lacking a flavor profile. Service was quick and ambiance was slightly loud, but quite comfortable.
