Customer Reviews
ordered the seafood fajitas and seafood dip and the house made quac and all of its was so delicious and it was a good portion of the fish on there. Service only reason she got 4 stars was because she had hard time understanding and would rush off quickly before we could ask for everything we needed and wanted. Ordered a mango margarita on the rocks however it came to me frozen. Nice young lady though....very friendly.
My husband came here for lunch not to long ago and absolutely loved it. We will come again for the delicious 🤤 food.
If you’re in Newport and craving some fantastic Mexican cuisine, this restaurant is an absolute must-visit! The food is consistently delicious, and the atmosphere is inviting. Favorite Dishes Our go-to meal here is the ACP (Arroz con Pollo), which is always perfectly cooked and full of flavor. The Fajita Nachos are another standout—loaded with toppings and served with a delicious cheese dip that’s truly the best around. You won’t find a better nacho cheese dip anywhere else! Fresh Ingredients The guacamole deserves special mention, as it's always made fresh and bursting with flavor. It’s the perfect complement to any dish, and you can really taste the quality of the ingredients. Clean and Friendly The restaurant is always clean, adding to the pleasant dining experience. The staff is inc
Being a Texas girl, I've been CRAVING authentic Mexican food. I have to say, by far, the margaritas and guacamole are the BEST in the area. The rice and beans? 10/10. The waitress is (yes im writing this review as I visit) amazing and attentive. I came to just get out of the house and was pleasantly surprised at just how at home I felt here. Please visit and support this restaurant, they deserve it.
This is an excellent addition to the food scene in Newport! New decor, paint, and a modern atmosphere promised an entirely different dining experience from the building's prior incarnation and they delivered! Fresh, fast, healthy food served by a great staff is always worth five stars in my book.
