Their food is very good. I especially liked my spinach quesadillas (I wish I could have added a meat), and the soup. The soup I got I think was more of a chicken tortilla type soup instead of the azteca sopa but it was still really good and I am glad that I got it. It was really nice to enjoy a lunch with my mom in law while I was up visiting.

Absolutely amazing! The food was fresh, flavorful, and perfectly seasoned — easily some of the best Mexican cuisine I’ve had in a long time. The service was outstanding; everyone was friendly, attentive, and made us feel welcome from start to finish. And the margaritas? Hands down the best I’ve ever had — perfectly balanced and so refreshing! You can tell they truly care about their customers and take pride in what they do. Can’t wait to come back and try more dishes...
