This place was amazing. I was expecting to be an American Mexican type of place. like a text mex thing. I was very personally surprised when I looked at the menu and were all authentic Mexican dishes. They had tortillas tostada and tacos and more.They starst you with chips and salsa. Just enough amount of heat to be pleasurable into your mouth. The tortillas are nice and crisp, not only at all as it usually happens in other places. I ordered the Mexican corn ( Elites). Super good. When I went there I was trying to do a vegetarian diet for a week and this place was perfect for that. I ordered the vegetarian tostada and it was delicious. The vessel was seasoned to perfection. The order came with 3 tortillas. It was topped with contija cheese. The service was great. They were very attentive

I came here for lunch on a Saturday. I ordered The best tasting salad I EVER ATE EVER! beef grilled to PERFECTION! definitely enough for 2 meals. Soft but tasteful Indy music plays over the PA. Immediate service. Illustrated digital menu so you don't have to guess (nor read Spanish) what you are ordering. [The best thing I did that day was to walk out of the "mexican" place down the street (after they didn't attend to hungry me).] I FORGOT TO ADD a good reason I will keep visiting this restaurant : they used an environmentally-conscious reinforced paper take-out container! for my salad. I hate plastic!

This place is fantastic! The food comes out fast and is really tasty. Erica was friendly and helpful, and the ambiance was colorful and lively. I got the shrimp tacos, and they were so good. If you are thinking about going, go ASAP!
