In very particular about eating Mexican food. I'm Mexican (obviously) and my entire family and I are amazing cooks. This is definitely a winner on my small list of Mexican cuisine locations I'm willing to eat at.

The food was good . The only problem was that they have limited options for vegetarians . They had run out of the vegetarian chile rellonos at 7.30 pm on a Sunday night. Very disappointing.

Second location of this local chain.
We had fun and eat way to much!
Order the fajitas Shrimp and steak. Just right amount of food. The chips and guacamole was excellent. Round tortilla chips as their table chips.
