“Parking is probably the biggest challenge with the drive thru Starbucks in the same parking lot. The papusas were my favorite (steak with beans and cheese). Price was pretty reasonable, which is always a plus.

Parking: Share the plaza with drive thru Starbucks so there was a bit of a challenge getting out of a parking spot.“

“Only con was the music was too loud.

The salsa with the chips was fantastic. A bit of heat and a slight smokiness. Added a bit to my rice too. So good.

The mole looked good and I found the Emmoladas De Pollo on the menu. I didn’t want a mole plate and this was perfect. The mole was delicious and smothered the fully filled stuffed chicken in rolled tortilla (think enchiladas). And yes, the mole was delicious.

We had margaritas. Asked for no salt but came with coarse salted rim. Unfortunately, the salt infiltrated margarita. Didn’t love it. Without the salt it was fine.

Wish there was some craft beer. I could see my disc golf buddies stopping by one or two times a week for some tacos or burritos and craft beers. Also, not.

Over all, this is a great restaurant with great food and friendly service. We will be back.“

It has a very rich flavor, it is totally different from Mexican ceviche and that makes me return to this place, the girl who served us was called JOCELYN, she was an excellent waiter, she was very attentive, and I want her to serve me again, she recommended food to us, provides very good care“
