I understand that not everyone has the same tastes, but in my case it is nothing out of this world. First the appetizer we ordered was a sampler of quesadillas and these were not cut, if it is a sampler it is obvious that it is to share and then my wife ordered the seafood tower and nowhere did it say that it was raw seafood. HELLO!!!! Not everyone likes that. It would be nice if they specified somewhere on the menu that the dish is that way, which is why I only give it 2 stars
Great place for all,great service,great food,great drinks and awesome music on the weekends ❤️
This is by far the best Mexican Restaurant in the area. Food is amazing, friendly staff, and great environment.

The restaurant's margaritas and Mexican food are described as the best in the area, with one customer mentioning they used to look forward to "Margarita Monday" when it was still a thing. The chicken tinga taco salad and chicken enchiladas are highlighted as delicious menu items, with the presentation of the enchiladas being unique and impressive. The jalapeño cilantro margarita is also a must-try, with the right amount of heat.
Recently, guests enjoyed the margarita flight, recommending raspberry and lime flavors, finding it worth trying. One customer ordered through the website for pickup and appreciated the generous serving of family fajitas, which included a big bag of fresh tortillas with salsa, a half tray of steak, chicken, and veggies, along with large containers of refried beans, rice, sour cream, and pico de gallo—everything nicely packaged and ready on arrival.
