Wow. I found the new best Mexican spot in Lincoln! They have a grill in the front room where everything is made fresh. The chicken was amazing and tastes better than places twice as expensive. I will need to go back to try the steak and other items. Honestly, some of the best Mexican food I've ever had anywhere!

Truck driver. Had dinner. Fajitas and tacos. Excellent. Server cute and service was excellent. Will come back. Happy Trucker Ron Kutz Archer Florida.

Run down interior with gaps in the flooring. Depressing atmosphere inside. Took about 30 minutes to get our food compared to maybe 10 minutes tops for the other people coming in after us when we were the only people in there initially with food cooking. Server visited us maybe two or three times. Very bland food. They were out of half the things we tried to order. Costs way to much for the quantity and quality of the food. When checking out server hovered over tip screen to watch what was being out down.

I stopped in on a recommendation from a coworker after i got off of work, and the fact everything i walked by it smelt soo good. And it was even better than anticipated! The food was amazing, and you can tell everything is homemade all the way down to the chips. The atmosphere is very welcoming. Overall I highly recommend stoppinginto this absolute gem, you won't regret it!
