★★★★★ 5.0 Beth King · Aug 2025

The staff was friendly and efficient. Everyone was super kind and willing to chat. Gorgeous art on the walls inside and delicious food! Sopa Del Mar was totally amazing and generous portions as well. So delicious I made my husband eat several bites because I couldn’t believe how good it tasted and I wanted him to experience it!

I tried something different this go around.. I chose 3 different items, Tostada, enchilada and taco.. all were ok not much seasoning.. my other half ordered Pollo Monterrey, it's his favorite. I have tried his shrimp that comes with the meal and it's delicious. I may try that one next time.

★★★★★ 5.0 TyeTye · Mar 2025

The food was absolutely incredible, and the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome! I can’t wait to return for more of those mouthwatering dishes—they were simply sensational! Every interaction with our waitress felt like a breath of fresh air, her smile brightening up our experience. From the moment we walked in to the warm goodbye on our way out, the whole experience was just perfect! I’m already counting down the days until I can come back!

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Mike B · Aug 2021

The chips and salsa are really good, especially if you love cilantro like I do. The entrees were just okay. The prices are a little high for the portion sizes. The burrito norteno was good, but would’ve been better 30% bigger or with a side of rice, especially for the price. Our server wasn’t very good especially when it came to refilling drinks.
