Amazing food , great service! Fast and delicious 😋 please come visit some time

★★★★☆ 4.0 Mark Pitts · Sep 2021

Good food at great prices, but not the most authentic Mexican restaurant. I gave it 4 stars for its large menu, good prices, and large portions. The service is usually fairly good, too. It is a popular place for locals, and that says a lot about the consistency of the food and the good prices. There are some vegetarian options on the menu. We will definitely return here sometime.

The food we had was amazing. We had the Molcajete Cactus Supreme, Cazuelan, and Enchiladas. The chicken in the Cazuelan was the best chicken I have ever tasted, I even ate the steak first so I could savor ever last bite of the chicken. The chips and salsa were plentiful and we added a made to order Chirizo Skillet Dip. The service was great as well. We could here some music playing but it was quiet, if we could offer one tip to enhance the experience it would to let everyone here the beautiful Mexican music while dining. We had a great time dining here

Got right in, order taken in the first 5 min and drinks served immediately, as well as chips & salsa. Food was out within 15 min. Tastes great

Trying new places out of town. This was a win. Enjoyed the Mexican Flag Enchaladas. 😋 I think the green sauce was my favorite. I enjoyed the tanginess of the sauce. The cheese sauce was good, and I would say the red sauce was ok as well. I believe I am not a red sauce fan, no matter the country. The rice and beans were as expected. Stop by if you're in town.
