We've eaten here numerous times. We found it when we Googled Mexican Restaurants. First what caught our attention is MEXICAN SUSHI. Yes, you did read this correctly. Yes, its absolutely divine. We've tried it all. Second, you will never EVER go home hungry unless you choose too. Portions are enough that you will have lunch for break the next day. Again! We haven't found an entrée we haven't more appealing food.
Now the drinks. AWESOME! Lots to choose from.
Overall clean! Thats one thing I really appreciate! Bathroom, CLEAN LADIES!!
Employees are the best. Pleasant and always smiling and ready to help and double checking on the customer.
If you want fresh made food, good here!

Food was ok but a bit on the plane side like they know how to make a good burrito but they are making it for people that think ketchup is spicy no spices on the chicken/shrimp.

I had the Nebraska burrito with cheese on top and guacamole. Everything was delicious! They brought chips with 2 types of salsa, red and green to start. The red salsa had a Chipotle flavor and was a bit spicy and the green salsa was made with tomatillos and was not spicy at all but was extremely flavorful. My burrito was huge and well seasoned. Even the queso was seasoned - the best queso I've had. Dulce was our server and she was very pleasant, kind, and made good recommendations. Sofia was also there and was very kind and helpful as well. The restaurant did not have a lot of seating but did have a patio where several people were sitting. Highly recommend.

I kept it simple and ordered a’la carte; beef taco and side of beans. The tortilla was good, probably made there is my guess. Bean order was large, hot and flavorful. Nothing fancy about the taco filling but it was OK. Dinner options seemed limited and pricey. Service by the young ladies was a pleasure; very polite and warm smiles.

This is my first visit, and I forgot to take a picture of my plates before split. The lunch special was 3 tacos, rice, and beans. The tacos are filled! I made 2 from one. The arroz y frijoles ... YUM... están llenos de sabor.

The ladies who greeted us and served us were friendly and attentive. My mom and I split the taco special. Usually, servers have to be asked for an additional plate after the food is delivered. She delivered the extra plate with the food, without being asked. The little things are big. Thank you.

The establishment was clean, even in the bathroom mid workday.

Only 4 starts because I didn't have a margarita but will definitely return.

i’m in town for work and I was looking for a good authentic Mexican restaurant. This place was incredible. The food knocked my socks off, curled them up and then put them back on. It was so good. This is definitely a must stop if you’re in the airport area. You can’t go wrong. The food was incredible. And the staff was so awesome and kind and delightful.

Had the Nebraska Burrito!!!! Delicious!!!
The chips they give you when dining in are crispy and fresh. The green salsa is yummy and mild, the red is hotter but not so hot you cannot taste the flavor.

The Burrito was filled, generous portions of steak inside, the rice fluffy (not a stick mush glob- you know what I mean haha). The lettuce, tomato and chopped onions all crisp and fresh as well.

I got the cheese sauce and it was warm adding to the flavors, I enjoyed it but if your not sure I'd get it on the side, it is rich but that is how it is supposed to be.

The service was fast and friendly. Completely love this joint!
