“Delicious! I had the Mango Caliente sushi roll and OMG it didn't disappoint. My husband had the Mojarra Frita platillo and he really enjoyed it. I think we found our new sushi/mariscos place. The customer service was just as great as their food.“

“My husband had beef enchiladas and fried beef taco, he loved it he said it was very tasty and his a chip and salsa lover, loved the salsa, you can ask for more at no charge.. I ordered the aguachile shrimp, in any restaurant you usually get 12 shrimp this place was more like 3 dz. I could not finish them very tasty, I would recommend this place, their margaritas are blended and taste great. If you go to Santa Maria stop here for a bite.“

“ABSOLUTELY AMAZING.
At this point, there’s no going back. I go here at LEAST once a month. My personal favorite order is the protein roll, the miso soup and the cucumber salad which comes out to around $20+. Pretty macro friendly if you know what to get. There are so many options, and the food is presented very nicely. I’m a major introvert, so the fact that almost half of the seating there is booth seats is a huge A+. I might be overselling it a tiny bit because I love sushi and ramen, but this is a very solid restaurant. :)“

“We came for the menudo which was absolutely delicious I only wish it had hominy but it's ok I understand not everyone adds that to the menudo. I also ordered the red chilaquiles with Asada and I was so pleased with the taste of everything. The only thing that would have made it even better was if the tortillas were freshly made.“

“Each time I visit the Santa Maria area for work. I make it a point to eat here. I asked for a recommendation for a great Mexican restaurant while visiting the local Lowe’s. Everyone said to come here. I’ve never been disappointed. Great food and service. I was last there in August 2025. They were preparing over 600 tacos for a party. Never missed a beat for the customers dining in. Definitely recommend going there“
