A hidden gem of delishusness. This family restaurant with a Mexican flair is adorned with local murals and is a must-go in my opinion. I had the Al pastor burrito with green salsa. Oh boy it was good! My son had the Philly cheese steak sandwich and he gave it a thumbs up. The staff was terrific. Don't forget to give them a try. Unfortunately they are open for breakfast and lunch.

I tried their biscuits and gravy and it was awful. I even had my family take a taste just to be sure it wasn’t just me and they made the same face I did. The gravy tasted like flour and the sausage tasted like rubbery old meat- no kidding. I personally won’t ever go here again.

Family owned breakfast and lunch restaurant. Tacos Al Pastor were full flavor. Friendly service too.

Very tasty and well-prepared! Both the Mexican and American options were delicious. Just know that when they say something is spicy, they mean it. :) The atmosphere was also great, they have some really great paintings in the dining area.

Their food is always amazing and quick!! Very nice people and I love to have them as an addition to Fort Madison!! Very quickly becoming one of our favorite places!!Vegetarian options: They have a very broad and extensive menu. It looks like there are plenty of vegetarian options, and they have no issue changing things to be accommodating.Dietary restrictions: They are very accommodating and have a broad menu.Parking: Might have to park a little down the road, but most of the time I can park right by the door!Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly staff and menu.Wheelchair accessibility: They have ramps all the way inside, no stairs nessisary.

This quaint little place is off to a great start. You have to come and taste the authenticness of all their wonderful dishes. They're making a switch up to the normal breakfast menu and bringing in a little Hispanic flair. I love it.
