For as long as I've lived here, I've never been here until a couple days ago. Staff were friendly and the chips were good with their salsa. They have a massive menu to choose from and all sounded pretty good. We literally waited less than 5 minutes before getting our food out to us. It was absolutely delicious! I can't believe I've missed out on this place. I can't wait to go back and try their other food options!

Exceptional! Friendly, adequate service despite them being extremely busy. Our food was hot and delicious. Drinks were huge and well made. Especially loved the chips and salsa. Chips were fresh and warm, and there was bottled sauce to heat up the salsa if desired. Will definitely return!

The best Mexican place around. I eat there once a week and it’s all to die for. Huge menu with lots of options, but everything comes out tasting fresh and amazing. Margaritas are excellent too.

Food, service and prices were good. Atmosphere would be better if bus boy cleaning off tables was not throwing dishes, cups and silverware into the tubs!! Loud and startling!!

We have been regular customers for several years. It’s our go-to Mexican restaurant! We dine in quite a bit but get take out more frequently. The food is consistent so if you order something one visit, the next visit it will taste the same. They are always quick, I don’t think we’ve ever had to wait before we get a table. Atmosphere is very comfortable and all the employees are very nice! Would highly recommend this place!

We're new to this amazing restaurant. When we arrived the parking lot was packed full. We thought it would be a long wait however we got a table quickly and ordered our food within 5 minutes. The waiter was fast to bring chips and homemade salsa. He was very knowledgeable about the menu, we ordered right away. To our surprise we had our food inside of 10 minutes. Meals were delicious and well presented on the plate. We will recommend and return to this restaurant again and again. Keep up the good work!!
