Excellent
Big michelada and the tacos were delicious. Solid choice
delicious
The food is FIRE!!! 🔥 Excellent food, service and atmosphere!!
Moved into the area recently and thought we would give this a shot. We were not disappointed! Chile relleno is something I order frequently. To be honest, I pick off the batter and just eat the chili with the cheese. Usually batters have no flavor, they are just pointless blobs of grease. This is the first place where I ever actually wanted to eat the batter! It was fluffy and flavorful, not greasy at all. The sauce on top of it was out of this world. It was a slightly creamy tomato sauce, and it was full of flavor. The salsa bar was great, and everything seemed fresh. The chips that were sitting and being heated were perfectly crispy, not stale. My little daughter raved about her enchilada sauce. The staff was kind and patient with me as I tried to figure out what I wanted. We are very lucky to have this place nearby!
Was craving enchiladas and these didn’t disappoint!
One of my favorite Mexican food restaurants in Sac
My husband and I I were driving in the area and decided to try this place out. We both had a small Menudo and I’m pretty picky when it comes to soups and let me just say they did not disappoint. The Menudo was absolutely delicious full of flavor and the portion was perfect. It’s served with homemade tortillas and all the toppings. This restaurant is super clean and very organized. There salsa bar was 100% delicious. We will definitely be coming back again.
I love this place. I’ve tried several different things and every time they hit a home run. The staff is very friendly. The only problem is I don’t live closer lol
Frequent flyer. Love this place. Pretty good menudo and pozole.

Our new favorite happy hour after work destination. The staff is amazing, the energy here is great. Best house margaritas we have tasted in town. Tuesday taco night almost feels like robbery the tacos are so amazing. Come in once and you will become instant regulars as we are now. Mario tge manager is one of the nicest people you will meet.

Went to eat with my family, noticed when we walked into the restaurant they had 10-20 homeless camping out at the entrance and across the parking lot. As we walked in we noticed a "be careful slip sign" at the door. We ordered our food, the cashier was very sweet. We sat at the table nearest the door and as we sat in the seat as soon as I felt the seat I felt something wet. As I stood up is when I realized by the horrific smell it was urine!! Completely disgusting. There was only 2 other ppl in the restaurant, so not sure why this wasnt cleaned and sterilized!! Ruined my pants

We went on to have lunch. 2 of us. We ordered at the counter our two meals and two margaritas. Tammy's food came first. She was almost done eating by the time my food was put down on the table and we never received the margaritas. I feel like the drinks should've been the first thing served??? I won't be going back there and they did credit us for the margaritas. They should also warn a person they are serving a Chimichanga to that they are extremely hot. I blew on this thing knowing it was fried and would be hot and still burnt my mouth badly.

Outstanding food and outstanding bar. Great salsa bar with great service. If you are unsure, just ask. They have a separation between food and bar ordering and they are very accommodating about getting you both if that's your need. Management is excellent and the owner does the food with pride. This place is a keeper!
Kid-friendliness: Plenty of space, chips and mild salsa options for kids. Plenty of options on the kids menu, hi chairs, friendly towards unruly toddlers. All good people here.
