This place is amazing! We come here every few weeks for some of the most delicious Mexican food. The reason we originally stopped in is because I’m vegan and we read a review that mentioned one of their vegan items. Before I changed my diet, my favorite go-to Mexican dish was chicken enchiladas so I was excited to try their spinach enchiladas. (Ask for no sour cream) It’s unreal! The flavor is phenomenal! My partner loved their various tacos and sauces! The staff is also next level! Everyone is so friendly. Other servers will check on you as they pass by, just to see if they can make your experience better. The food is extremely affordable and so is their imported beer! The atmosphere is amazing and they have a fun tradition for birthday celebrations too! You will not regret coming here fo

The food was excellent the menu had good verity of food to order from breakfast seafood tortas burritos. The shrimp soup was delicious the potatoes and carrots were a little over cooked but had great flavor. My waiter was excellent he checked on me plenty of times make sure I didn't need anything. Music was playing but not to load was just right full bar

First time at this establishment. Any kind of Mexican food one could want they have. Busy at dinner time so the wait for the food to arrive was a bit long but to be expected. What was not expected was the medium Dos Equis. Glad I didn't order a large. Try the roasted corn rubbed with mayo and Parmesan for something different. I had the Quatro Esquinas and it had me saying, No Mas, no mas!

I have ordered from here multiple times on DoorDash. Finally went in to eat in person for the first time. The inside was decorated really nice! The service was pretty quick and friendly too. We order the chips and salsa & Queso on the side as well to Start off. We really enjoyed our queso dip, so I do recommend that! We also ordered the burrito el barzon- An item that we order quite frequently. Pretty much every time we order from here. It’s a huge burrito with chicken, shrimp, beef, pineapple, and a smothered in sauce. Definitely very filling and could get multiple meals out of it. I also order their salmon and shrimp, rice dish, which they offered tortillas When they brought it out. It was good, I love the sauce and will definitely order this again..

I was given the wrong item and it was pretty pathetic. No flavor, expensive for what we got. The salad had maybe a handful of iceberg lettuce.
