Stop here after looking for a Mexican restaurant on Google with good reviews. It is now our go to food is consistent and always good. Drinks are also good even if you order one that is not on the menu. They are very welcoming and fast service. This place has 100 rating on their food grade. That alone is hard to find. I recommend this place if you are passing through or live in the area, is worth the visit.

We ate here recently. I wasn’t hungry so I just got cheese quesadillas. But, other guests got the birra pizza, basic fajitas, and something else. Everyone enjoyed their food. The waitress was attentive.
