Server forgot about us and admitted it. Didn’t check on us once the good came out. Just collected the plates when we were done. Servers need a lot more training. Food was mediocre.

Great mixed Mexican food from this lovely, family-run restaurant. Casual and very friendly atmosphere. We were served by Craig, one of the owners, who had a great sense of humour.
Genuine home cooked Mexican food. Our daughter had never eaten at a Mexican restaurant before and this was a perfect intro. Thanks Craig…we’ll be back.

Food and ambiance was excellent. Drinks was also pretty good.
The staff was very polite and accommodating.
Will surely visit next time when we come to Powell river and we will recommend other too.

The food was ok and the atmosphere was great - the decor is fun and colourful, with flags hanging from the ceiling and murals on every wall. The service, however, was poor and left us feeling ignored. I really hate to think that all of this is because we were the only visibly LGBT+ couple in the establishment, but I really have no other idea why we received the treatment we got.

My wife and I were seated, our orders were taken, and that was pretty much the end of the customer service we received. It was lunch time on a weekday, so it wasn't too crowded, so I'm not sure what happened. We received our drinks and chatted, holding hands, waiting for our appetizer. While we waited for our food, we noted that every other table in the establishment was visited several times to be checked on, have their drinks refilled, checking on appetizers and entrees, etc. while they never swung back to check on us aside from very quickly dropping off our food.

I wasn't a huge fan of the horchata I received (I was expecting it to be sweet) and wanted to order another drink, but never got the chance. Our appetizer never appeared. Our food took 40 minutes and the server disappeared so quickly after dropping it off we couldn't make any requests, or ask about the missing appetizer. No one came to check on us during the meal either.

Every other patron who went to the till to pay was greeted, asked how their food was, and chatted with in a friendly manner, but we got barely a sentence. The servers also wouldn't look us in the face, which was incredibly strange. We paid, making sure the appetizer was taken off the bill, and left. My wife and I didn't feel welcomed and I don't think we'll be returning. Unless there's a good explanation for the treatment we received, I think we'll be telling our friends and family that this establishment isn't LGBT+ friendly.

Best spot to get Mexican food in Powell River!! They actually honour their spice levels, and they never skip out on the amount of meat that comes with your order!! Highly recommend!! 🙌🙌

The best prawn tacos!!

Young man seated me by the door and waited 9 min. -and still no Menu brought, I had to go up by the kitchen and ask if he forgot about me, he didn't even apologize. he came to take my order and drink, and never brought the water at all, and when the other waitress brought my food she had to bring water. not great service, food is/was great.
