★★★★★ 5.0 YM M · Dec 2025

I visited this restaurant and was impressed from the moment I walked in. The service was outstanding the waiters and managers were incredibly attentive, friendly, and always made sure I was having a great experience. The food was phenomenal, full of flavor and beautifully presented. I’m not usually a fan of very sweet desserts, but I decided to try the tres leches… and it was honestly the best I’ve ever had! The taste, texture, and presentation were all perfect. The drinks were also amazing well prepared, refreshing, and full of quality. Overall, I had an incredible time at this restaurant and will definitely be coming back. Highly recommended.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Randy Troyer · Dec 2025

Been here a couple times for dinner. Their prices are a bit high and the entire drink menu (which is quite extensive) has zero prices on it, which drives me crazy. The service was attentive and the decor was eclectic, which we enjoyed. The salsa tastes like ketchup and needs more spice. I would say overall it’s solid but not mindblowing.

I came to celebrate my birthday because they offer a free appetizer. The appetizer of four empanadas was a large portion size and the food was good, made fresh. Our main course was pescado Mexico Viejo and chimichangas texanas. The staff surprised us at the end of our meal with singing Happy Birthday, giving us ice cream, and a small Mexican hat. I could have not asked for better service or more thoughtful touches for our experience. Thank you!

★★★★★ 5.0 Melvin Hall · Nov 2025

Great great place. The waiter was outstanding. The food was outstanding. The restaurant was very clean, open and the atmosphere was perfect. The pricing was very reasonable. The burrito vegano was a 10 out of 10. The menu offers a wide variety of dishes. The menu was a perfect match for the food I eat.

★★★★★ 5.0 Asad Aripov · Nov 2025

Excellent place, clean. Good service. Not expensive. Only one minus (many restaurants do the same): don't inform the customer about spacy foods. It is very critical because some people can have a seriuos allergy to certain foods.
