This place offers some good Mexican cuisine. The food was flavorful and each dish had its unique taste. The blackened chicken, shrimp tacos, and quesadillas were our favorites. Our server was welcoming and friendly. The place has a nice lively vibe.

First time trying this place and it is better than most other Mexican restaurants I have been too. Fresh chips and salsa when we were seated were good. The chicken quesadilla was loaded and tasty. Also got the chicken and steak fajitas. The ...

This probably the best overall Mexican food I ate at. They start you off with FREE chip and salsa they even heat the tortilla chip. Fajita a must grab. The atmosphere great and you never feel out of place.

Always an amazing place to stop for authentic Mexican food. This place stands out like no other because of their unique dishes. Theyre far better than all the others, meaning they dont give you a dish and bury it in red sauce and cheese. ...

Insane that a place with these prices still exists. Looking at the menu makes you wonder if youre looking at a 20 year old retro copy of the menu. ...
