We were recommended this place for some good Mexican and it did not disappoint! Great atmosphere and service. We had the fish tacos which were delicious and my husband who is a salsa snob loved the salsa which says a lot.

What a great place to enjoy generous servings of excellent Mexican dishes in a friendly environment. Everyone in our party of six loved it. We ate outside, and the shrubbery softened street noise, so it didn't intrude. If I lived in Santa Barbara I would be a frequent visitor.

My wife and I had a great lunch on the patio, which was dog friendly. We were glad we took the advice of the “busboy” who was actually a grown woman. I had the camarones borrachos and my wife had pescado salsa verde…both were excellent. My wife loved her skinny margarita. Chips and salsa were included and tasty.

Had the relleno and tamal combo, and it didn’t disappoint. Margaritas and guacamole good, too. Sweet outdoor setting makes it a neighborhood favorite.

We had my Grandmother’s 97th birthday party here and it was just wonderful. They let us decorate a special dining area, we had about 25-30 people and the service was exceptional. Grandma got her chile relleno, it was delicious like always and flan for all!

Food and drinks are excellent. Chips and salsa are great. Service is almost always slow and terrible, though. I'm not sure why, but it is frustrating. Be patient and don't expect to get your drinks or your check quickly. It has been a few months since we last visited. Hopefully, this has improved.
