One of my favorite places to go for Mexican food. I've never ordered anything that was bad everything is excellent. Our waitress is super friendly and attentive. Patio seating is available so you can bring your dog. I highly recommend this place.

The enchiladas were delicious. The location was tucked back and made for a quiet and calm dining experience. Service was great. Look forward to trying their fajitas on my next visit.

Our tacos were very good, and they did not skimp on the beef. Yummy tasting refried beans and rice. The chips were fair but the salsa was very fresh and tasty. The service was very good too.

Meh. You pay for chips & salsa; chips are Costco sized bag of old stale chips. The portions for rice/beans/sour cream...etc are about a spoonful and no cheese. Tortilla shells are not soft/fresh. Chicken was dry. Steak was cut into squares rather than strips, shrimp had the tails left on. Kinda hard to mess up fajitas but they did. I asked what tequila they use in their margaritas but they only serve beer/wine...so that's what's in them -wine.

Hands down the BEST Mexican food in Granite Bay.Located in Quarry ponds center near Hawks restaurant. This place is a hidden gem and every dish is a Home-Run! Our favorite dishes are the Chile Verde, Tortilla soup, enchiladas platter, and the Tacos Curchipolte. These dishes are done at such a high level of cooking. The freshness of the ingredients, the plating presentation, the bright flavors found in the sauces all contribute to this wonderful menu. The ambiance is really clean and comfortable. Beautiful murals are painted all around you. And the prices are extremely fair compared to your average Mexican restaurant. The servers are very friendly and make great recommendations. You can tell this is a family business by how much the staff cares.

Average all around. There wasn't much of a selection of things I would like on the menu. Settled on fajitas which didn't have much flavor. Service was a little slow, but this might have been because we had a large party. Had a good time with family, but we could have had that anywhere. Nothing memorable about the place.

This place has absolutely delicious molé. I don't come across too many places in California that serve this, so this is a real gem of a spot. The ceviche was tremendously refreshing! I love the colorful, traditional decor and the service was wonderful. One of the best Mexican spots in the county, no doubt about it. They even had some vegan options! They manage to have inclusive options and add some unique touches to their cuisine while still remaining quite authentic I'd say.

This is such a good restaurant. The ambiance is great, the service is amazing and don't get me started with how good the food is. Everything i've tried on the menu has been delicious. Here are my go to's:1. Margarita no salt with ice2. Guacamole and chips (best guac ever!)3. Chicken fajitas with a side of guac (can't get enough of it).Yum. Can't wait to go again.

The mole poblano and the green mole are fantastic. Rice is some of the best I've had outside my house. Service is fantastic and the place is very clean.
