Amazing. Food was hot, clean tasting and authentic.

★★★★★ 5.0 Neema Wooten · Dec 2025

Love this place! Been coming here 3 year. My friends and I always come here to eat. The chill atmosphere and aesthetic is amazing. The food is very flavorful and authentic Mexican. Everything is always so juicy.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Stan Fernandes · May 2018

This is a nice casual place to get a quick bite. The staff was very friendly and the service was quick. They even had Mexican sodas made with real sugar. The food was good. It is a small place, not fancy at all. I would recommend if you are looking for something quick.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Ameer Ahmed · Aug 2021

A very pleasant experience. We were seated promptly and they brought out chips and salsa. 2 different salsas. Both flavorful and not watery. 1) The Texas burrito was great. Very fresh and flavorful. Stuffed with rice, beans and cheese and smothered in red sauce. Good portion size and very filling. 2) Fish tacos were a slight miss. Kinda bland. Would benefit from more salsa. 3) The horchata was delicious. Sweet and cold treat. Overall, minus the fish tacos, everything was delicious.
