Delicious food. Super clean place. Real good Mexican cuisine. You can't go wrong here. I really value the awesome customer service. Very respectful. I'll definitely be back. Thanks a lot. I ordered the chicken and steak fajitas with rice & beans. Delicious 😋

★★★☆☆ 3.0 Andrew Sukijbumrung · Feb 2026

Pros - Chips and salsa were good. Margaritas were tasty, strong and a good value ($18 half pitcher). Food came out very quickly. Too quick honestly, IYKYK. Cons - The food was not good. I’m sincerely confused at all the reviews talking about how good the food is here. The rice and beans were bland, the cheese was greasy, the chile relleno was unrecognizable and gross, and the beef in the tacos and burritos didn’t have a hint of seasoning. It tasted like a Mexican dinner someone from Ohio would make with an old El Paso kit from the grocery store, not something you’d get at a restaurant. The food came out TOO fast, it was obviously pre-portioned and microwaved before serving. Cheese was lava hot on some of the plate and not melted on other parts. If I come back it will strictly be for marga

★★★★☆ 4.0 Americo Menendez · Feb 2026

This place looks amazing and fun. I came in on an early Saturday afternoon. Low staffed yet friendly. I will say food was served super fast. Ordering and service did not flow the same way. But once the food was up it came out. All around they have some good specials and seems to be a great spot for an evening dinner with friends and margaritas. The vibe is not the same when there is no crowd.

Highly recommend. 2nd visit while in Tampa. Food is amazing. Flavorful, tasty. Large portions! Loved the margaritas during happy hour! Great service and lots of delicious options to consider. Outstanding Mexican food.

When it comes to dining out, I hold restaurants to high standards and am selective with where I choose to eat. Not many restaurants meet my expectations, as I believe food should be treated with care and respect. Upon arriving at this particular restaurant, I immediately noticed its cleanliness, an important factor in my assessment. The bar area was well-organized and less cluttered, with a drain on the floor, suggesting a thorough cleaning process rather than just a quick wipe-down. I decided to dine at the bar and was delighted by the excellent food quality and presentation. Their homemade sauce is a must-try, as it truly enhances the flavors of their dishes. Curious to see the kitchen's cleanliness and organization, I took a peek and found it to be well-maintained and clutter-free. This
