My new favorite! Stopped in last night, seated immediately and both the service and food was outstanding. Highly recommend this place. Martin makes the best Spicy Margherita's and the Molcajete was phenomenal! We will definitely be back again!

Been going here for years and never had a bad meal. Staff are friendly and quick. Actually, I think I'll go there tonight! 🙂
Went here for Mother’s Day dinner on Saturday. They didn’t have the Mexican corn or bone marrow which I really wanted but I did get a great steak, chicken, sausage combo meal with sides and my son had a huge piece of fish which was really good also. Fried ice cream for dessert was delicious. I would definitely come back to get the corn and bone marrow next time.

Focus on providing the best customer experience was not priority. I stopped in for a drink and to order a quick bite to eat for dinner. I sat at the bar, ordered a drink while waiting for my take out. I accidentally turned over my drink, as it was too close to my arm. I even helped the server clean the spill. While continuing to wait for my takeout, the server asked if I wanted another drink and I replied yes. When I received my check it was $33 total. This included my take out order, the replacement drink, and the initial drink that was accidentally spilled. When I asked the owner did I have to pay for the spilled drink, he replied yes, stating there was nothing he could do about it, because it was Delaware law, which I knew had nothing to do with his response. I informed him that I have been to many restaurants in Delaware and have seen common courtesy extended to customers. Nevertheless, I paid the $33 check, and informed the manager to keep the food I ordered for takeout. The business just lost a customer, as I would not patronize their business again!

Ordered a rancho salad to go and didn’t come with the chipotle ranch.
Stumbled on to this restaurant and I think I found a goldmine. The chips and salsa was fantastic the margaritas were really really good. Then the food came out the molcajete and fajitas, I swear I put food in my pocket and brought it home. The portions were huge, I even forgot my debit card and they kept it safe for me. You guys have a new loyal customer

Such a great place! We spent about an hour in the restaurant and have no complaints. The staff was attentive and quick. We had plenty of food to take home, for $55 (including a large Margarita) you definitely get more than expected! Everything was seasoned well and cooked perfectly. Definitely recommended!

Small bar/restaurant. Cozy. One of the few around with a wide selection of enchiladas (including just cheese).

It’s a very lowkey spot. It’s the best Mexican restaurant in DE. The staff is amazing and my food comes out 8 mins 10 mins max after placing an order. Literally so quick. I love this spot. The cocktails are NOT watered down. They have the best drinks here! This place is slept on. El mejor lugar para comer en DE!! Vale la pena!
