Good food delicious great service
This is a hidden gem! If you’re looking for authentic Mexican food in Tustin this is the spot! The have a salsa bar where you can get as much salsa as you would like to go with your chips! The Volcana one was amazing! Spicy but still very flavorful. The hostess was so kind and checked on me multiple times. Great place!
