My family and I have ordered to-go from this place many times. It’s always delicious and is my favorite Tex-Mex/AZ-Mex in town. Better than Macayo’s and Valle Luna and the like.

This popular Mexican restaurant has great happey hour specials all week long. I recommend any of the tacos. Besides the tacos, the food is good with great drink specials as well. The atmosphere feels like most MexiGringo places in the US, so avg points there. Pretty decent cost x benefit here as the prices are more reasonable than most!
July 2026
was very pleased with the waiter. He was very friendly and provided excellent customer service throughout our visit. Unfortunately, the food was a major disappointment. It had absolutely no flavor and was very bland. Based on the quality of the food, I would rather go to Taco Bell than return here. The service was great, but the food did not meet my expectations. horrible.
