★★★★★ 5.0 Cierra Jane · Jan 2026

I'm so obsessed with this place. The food is absolutely DELICIOUS. Everything I have ever ordered has been so good. The red pozole though? With a sopapilla? UNREAL. 10/10. SO GOOD.

★★☆☆☆ 2.0 Nicoby Clark · Nov 2025

Food is sub-par. It used to be good once upon a time. Now it is meh 😒 Undercooked tamale, Ground beef taco. 🌮 Sopapilla was tough and rubbery The cheese enchilada had too much cheese 🧀 Chips and salsa was good. Think I’ll hit up Gordo’s or Jerry’s from here on out….

If you're reading this you're probably in town and looking for some good tasty Mexican food. My experience there was stupendous . Everyone was so nice, pleasant & helpful.We had perhaps the best server I've ever had the pleasure working with her name was Nelly. It's almost as if this was my sister and we were visiting her restaurant for the first time( which it was )and she was telling us all about her food and what it taste like and offered sample after sample after sample anything we asked for before we ordered it. After trying a few samples of things we have never tried before (we're not familiar with the food names )we settled on our food choice ,it was brought to us hot tasty & fast. I wish every restaurant had this approach if you've never been there before. We can see why that plac

The hostess at the front is horrible! Food was awesome, servers awesome. But horrible attitude towards us and also toward people who came in. She was extremely rude, Would have enjoyed my food without the attitude. And wouldn’t like to hear slamming chairs and tables when while she cleaned

From reading all of the reviews is what made my husband and I decide to eat here. Well...wasn't what we had read for sure. Street tacos, for example, the tortillas looked as if they were drenched in oil. My hands were soaked in grease!! The red cheese enchiladas were overpowered with so much chili powder they were horrible. They're also very proud of their salsa. You get one 3.25 ounce with your plate, each additional 3.25 ozs is $3.99!!! I won't take anything away from them on their salsa, best I've had in a long time but to charge a dollar an ounce is ridiculous!! Not even enough salsa to finish our chips with. Won't be going back there!!
