Waited a half hour for take out on a small order of 3 tacos. Ground beef was ok but the chicken was bland. I tried to have a receipt texted to me on their POS but the screen was closed by staff before I could finish entering my number which feels suspicious. The groups dining in seemed to have an amazing time so maybe that's the route to go but I would not recommend takeout.

Family owned & operated business. I lived in Texas for almost 30 years and, having lived here for 12 years, this is the best place I’ve been to in this area with authentic Mexican, Tex/Méx dishes. Enjoy!
Parking: Located in a strip mall with plenty of parking. Handicap parking is in front of the entrance.

I entered mid afternoon to am empty dining room which is kinda what I prefer I eat at odd times anyway. So I was greeted very friendly from a lovely woman who sat me and got me a drink. I have been on a taco kick lately and I heard about their street tacos . I ordered one of each and I wasn't disappointed I ordered a side of rice and beans and the rice was perfectly cooked the meats were tender and juicy and the helpings were generous. It was my first time here and I wasn't disappointed. Thanks!!

BEST Mexican food in the area by far. The food is so flavorful and authentic. I always recommend peers to come here when they want Mexican food. Service is also great and the prices are affordable.

I love Mexican food. What I got, a Chimichanga with pinto ( they don't have black) beans, was 1/3 the size of La Bamba's for $2 more. It was good tho. This rice tasted dry, instead of moist. They do not have Virgin Strawberry Daqaris, so I ordered a hot tea. They don't have
that. So, I talked the waitress into taking the ice tea that they were serving my husband, to just take the tea, put it in a cup, then heat it in the microwave oven. That, she could do. It was great. I usually have Plantains and my husband, Fried Ice Cream. They do not have either. So, no Dessert
My husband had Beef & Chicken Enchiladas, which were great, but he only received 3 tortillas, instead of 4, so he ate the rest of it without a tortilla. Our waitress was nice, but we won't be back. It was way overpriced for the amount of food, atmosphere and location.

I think I found my local Mexican food place. I've lived in the area over three years but I lived in Mexico a few years before Covid. I'm very picky about the food and so far no one else had even hit the low bar. I'm talking Taco Bell or Del Taco was better! And then I had a gift card from Grubhub and decided this look good. I can't begin to tell you how fabulous this was! I had a three taco platter and it did not disappoint! When my order arrived the tortillas, wrapped in aluminum were almost nuclear or hot! There was a generous amount of meat and the sides as well as rice and beans. It actually was enough for two people! There was so much of the meat that I could've had at least 2 to 3 more Corn tortillas for it. They included chips and salsa at no additional charge - which lately restaurants are charging for it. Their salsa had a nice, surprising kick; I'm not afraid of spicy and this was a welcome surprise. Their chips were obviously made fresh and a crispy delight which I also used with the beans and rice.
It was delicious, generous portions and I will physically go in and eat there now. I am so looking forward to it!

I always get their Burrito Supremo and everytime it's so good.. their tacos are amazing too. The employees, more so the woman at the register, I apologize I didn't get her name cause I can see the cooks are so kind and friendly. I definitely recommend this place
