“We have tried three different Mexican restaurants around town and this was the best food by far. It wasn’t outstanding or anything but definitely the best in town. I don’t recommend the fajitas. I ordered the steak and chicken combo fajitas and they were very plain no seasoning and they didn’t come out sizzling. My daughter got the carnitas plate and it was delicious. The only complaint I have is the staff. The lady at the front, didn’t even greet us, or smile one time, just asked how many, and seated us. And our server never came back to refill our water or to see if we needed anything else.“

“We were there Sept 1st and our server was Marissa. Everything about our dinner was great! The food was hot and delicious, lots of choices, she checked on us frequently and gave us food and beverage suggestions. There was also a Magician walking around who was amazing. My soon to be 4yr old Godson loved it and got a balloon sword. We were there to celebrate his Mother's Birthday and they gave a delicious sweet treat we were able to share.“

“You can probably get a good burrito/bowl from other places as well; but what sets this place apart from everywhere else is the customer service! On Monday, I went in and for the first time and the 3 people working the counter (guessing college aged) were all phenomenal! In particular; Michael was exceptionally great. Something as simple as asking “how is your day going so far” with a smile and “yes sir” went a long way for me. In a world where customer service is hard to find and not even expected anymore; this was a nice change. I could go anywhere but I’ll definitely be returning here. A new Favorite in Panama City for sure!“
