Really liked this authentic eaterie with its vast menu, good draft beers and house margaritas. It was a lunch stop for 3 of us - perfect spot a minute off the I-75 and super-quick service and food delivery. Chips and salsa on arrival even before the drinks very welcome, too. So glad we found it - a happy day 1 lunch for us on vacation as we journeyed from Atlanta to Florida. $56 for three inc a beer, a margarita, a soft drink and as much as we could manage food-wise hit the spot...
Service from Bo was great, margaritas were very good, atmosphere was traditional Tex-mex, and dining room featured some really good artwork on the walls and the chairs. The Mexican guacamole was as good or better from a spot in Mexico where we had just been on vacation. Large portions, good food, and good service. We will stop again when we come through here.
Fun place. Typical of many Mexican restaurants in the US, with brightly painted booths, loud Mexican music, etc. Service was good, somewhat surprisingly as they were busy and so many places are short staffed these post-pandemic days. Generously portioned food was very good. Total for two people, including tax and tip, was about $42 - not bad at all.
