If you eat at the restaurant it's good.if you get it to go,there's no telling what you'll get.i ordered a taco salad and got it home and I couldn't believe what I saw when I opened the Styrofoam to go plate it was in.about a quarter inch of water in the bottom.i guess they had washed the lettuce and it was still soaking wet.it had lettuce, chicken and sour cream.pitiful!! I used to love this place.but they've got sloppy.lost my business!!

I'm from Arizona visiting family in Falkville. I was intrigued to see what southern style Mexican food had to offer.... this place is not southern at all. It is AUTHENTIC Mexican food and delicious! The restaurant is clean, atmosphere is welcoming and the food came out quickly. The staff were incredibly friendly. I highly recommend this place.

Good food, drinks were good, but not in line with happy hour rates, maybe I misunderstood the Monday specials. A nice place to dine, parking lot is big, friendly staff and good food. Slow AF. Very disappointed.

Prices are a little higher than other Mexican restaurants in the area, but the food is better than the others. Smaller portions also, but who needs to stuff themselves so I guess the portions are just right.

They have really good food, and the staff is really awesome in regards to service, however do keep in mind that it takes a while to get your order if you get take out, I almost always have to wait for my food to be finished. It's never been a bad meal, it just takes a while.Vegetarian options: They have a vegetarian menuParking: There is a lot of parking, but it can still become difficult to park due to the way the parking is set upWheelchair accessibility: There are two handicap parking spaces in front of the restaurant, they are a bit difficult to get in and out of though if it's busy.
