Food was just basic. Servers did not come ask how we were doing at all. No welcome when we walked in and the 1.00 soda refills is a rip off! Last choice for me to dine in the area

Came in they charge $1 for refills in pop 🤦‍♂️ food was mediocre. Could make this at home cheaper. Flavor was decent but more American than Mexican. Service is terrible though which makes a whole experience. Way over priced for the lack of portions, I get times are tough but come on. Chips are premade out of a bag and stale. Very disappointing when I can go down the road and spend just as much for more and better food.

We were surprised by their lunch buffet on a Friday afternoon! Friendly staff, quick food. It fills up on weekends at general mealtimes and may have to wait. A weekday at 2pm is empty.

Parking: The parking lot is sometimes full during rush meal time on weekends. You may have to park down the block on street parking.

This is our go to Mexican Restaurant in Okoboji. Food is authentic. It's usually not overly crowded or as noisy as other locations and just a great atmosphere.

Vegetarian options: The usual refried beans, mushroom quesadilla (super yummy), veggie fajitas, etc.
