★★★★★ 5.0 Chris Cann · Oct 2025

Been here a bunch but I think it's my new favorite in the area. Just had the fajita quesadilla and it was really good. Wife had the barria tacos and they are the only ones she actually likes around here. Really good. Food came out fast. And you can't beat the decor.

This is some of the best Mexican food we've had in NH. The portions are perfect and the margaritas are wicked good (and huge!)

Edit: added pictures from one of our many other visits! We got take out on March 20, and came for drinks on March 27. Sadly I didn’t get photos of our take out meals, but they were excellent! I got the Tequila Bowl with grilled chicken. It was enough for two meals, and so fresh and delicious! My husband got the Burrito Supremo with beef. It was enormous! He loved it. The beef was thinly sliced, not ground. We will definitely be back to dine in. **great margarita specials on Mondays $5!!

TL;DR This is some of the best Mexican food I've ever had. FOOD: Everything that we ordered was excellent. They have a vegetarian menu which has some amazing enchiladas on it. You'd think they just have black bean enchiladas. But no! They also have sauteed mushrooms and spinach enchiladas for vegetarians! The enchilada sauce is made in house and is delicious. The tortillas were so soft and fresh that you can bet your burrito they make those in house too. The margaritas were huge and they hooked them up with plenty of tequila for a price that is a fraction of what you'd expect to pay for a goblet with such heft. Don't forget to ask for the house habanero hot sauce. It's ripe and fruity but not for the faint of heart. The level of yumminess we experienced did not happen by accident. It is a

This restaurant is terrible. TERRIBLE The food was absolutely awful, you could taste the bad quality on the ingredients, we ended up paying $170 dollars for this: broken plates, gray guacamole, incomplete orders and bad quality ingredients. There was also some chunky weird thing on our drink. Definitely not recommend this restaurant to anyone. We are here for the weekend and wanted to have a good Saturday night but I’d rather go to get frozen food at Walmart than come back here
