A really tasty mexican inspired basics... tacos, quesadillas, fajitas... fresh ingredients and good portions. The margaritas are killer, tasty chips and a number of good sipping tequilas.

We visited for the first time during Christmas week, and it definitely won’t be our last! We had the trio sampler with chips and salsa to start and it was amazing. My husband and I each ordered the shrimp and short rib tacos. These are honestly the best tacos we’ve ever had anywhere! The service by Lanie was exceptional, and we absolutely loved her. My only complaint was the price of the margaritas. We each had two with Don Julio, and $88 for four margaritas was a little steep. But we will certainly be back on our next visit to the island!

Me & my family stopped in for a late dinner. The fresh tortillas and salsa were top teir. The hefty burritos were excellent, according to my wife & son ( she had grilled shrimp, he had grilled chicken). I had the beef Macho Nachos (whole). Unfortunately, I did not finish them because I did not have four other grown men with me to take a shift. This dish was MASSIVE! The half size is more than enough. It was excellent, however; Good flavors. The watermelon margarita was a standout drink, while the house margarita was a bit salty - even with no salt on the rim (I blame the Altos tequila). La Plancha is definitely worth a try.

Well, there is always a first time for everything.... A Mexican restaurant out of queso, oh boy. Fortunately, option B, Elotes, was decent. The food and service were good. My group ordered Elotes (Appetizer), Chicken Quesadilla, Mahi Mahi tacos and Short Rib tacos. Food portions were plentifully and costs are comparable to other Mexican inspired eateries. Plenty of free parking located in shopping plaza.
