★★★★★ 5.0 Dave Statler · Feb 2026

Very good food, don't let the exterior/location discourage you. Food was excellent and I haven't seen prices this good since pre-Covid.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Amy · Dec 2024

The restaurant looks great! They really transformed the place, we were very impressed by the decor. The staff were welcoming and pleasant. The food was good and the portions were large. The menu has lots and lots of options. There are no draft beer or fountain drinks at this time. But they offer cocktails and canned soda. We will definitely return for another meal!

★★★★☆ 4.0 Luz Muñoz · Jul 2025

To be fair, we went on the 4th of July, so it was almost empty. However, the service was on point the food was good, the waitress was on point! Helped us order a made up dish that was delicious. They made chicken birria tacos for my Bae, and he loved them! The Jamaica was so delicious, I'd go back just for that!!! We enjoyed the visit. Adding to out go-tos. Also, they have dishes from different countries too, so its nice to have a variety.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Steve Garrett · Feb 2026

Food was good and cooked well. Seasoning was not the usual pallet of other "Mexican" restaurants definitely worth a try.

★★★★★ 5.0 Krysta Thomas · Feb 2025

Great food and atmosphere. I got the burrito vaquero and the avocado was fresh! And definitely too big to finish so the rest was carry out lol. They really transformed the interior and booths are comfy cozy for 2-4 people.
