The food and margaritas were fantastic! They have a combo plate and a generous selection of other options, including vegetarian. There's limited parking at their location, which is nice, since a lot of places around that downtown area dont have any at all. It's also very close to the walkable downtown area.

We came following a local's recommendation. We were not disappointed. The authentic Mexican food was all delicious. We sat outside on their large patio this evening and it was very pleasant. However, they do crowd a lot of tables out there and they were all full on this holiday weekend.
Convenient location with outdoor seating that makes it perfect in nice weather. Came at the end of the lunch hour and service was fast and great. The margarita, enchiladas mexicana and the chips and fresh salsa were all excellent!
