Everything about this place is amazing! Their margaritas are a steal at that price. No place I’d rather go.

We were charged $10 for a NON ALCOHOLIC Smoothie... and $8 for a margarita with alcohol... they were both 16 oz. Crazy! I thought for sure it was a mistake, nope they said it wasn't. We were also charged for mushrooms we never received and charged for a 2nd margarita we didn't order (which they sid remove those 2 items at least). There aren't many options in Lake View so I'm sure that's what keeps the doors open is the lack of options.

We have visited twice in the past month while visiting the area. I would highly recommend giving them a try.

The first visit was for lunch. The lunch fajitas were great as was the service.

Our second visit was Friday night for dinner. They were SLAMMED. Again, the food (Polo Mexicano) was great. They were quick to get and fill our drinks and the food came out much quicker than I expected for how busy it was. We didn’t even make it half way through our chips before our food was on the table.

I would 100% recommend this restaurant! 10 stars. My burrito was extra hot, temperature wise. Flavor was delicious . Cheese dip was delicious. Very friendly staff. Received food in a very timely manner. It was well worth the hr drive!

The food was good, the service was great and it was very affordable. We had tacos, enchiladas, queso, and a couple of Modelos.

Amazing fresh mexican food in the middle of nowhere. Worth the trip. Got the fajitas and everything was good. From the fresh tortillas, to the rice and beans all was great. Great hidden gem.

We had high hopes for this restaurant but were quickly let down. I was asked if we wanted queso. Well we never received it. My food was supposed to be chicken they brought out beef. The beef was so minced it looked like dog food. The only thing that tasted good was our Margaritas but they didn't seem to have any alcohol in them. I have been to several Mexican restaurants and this has to be the worst. We definitely will not be back.

Great outdoor seating area, wonderful margaritas, and the food was just ok. Maybe we ordered the wrong things to eat.

Worst Mexican food I’ve ever had.

We walked in to get some carry out. Place was deserted. Eventually found an employee eating in a booth with another employee (or friend not sure) who finally came up to take out order. Ordered a bean & cheese burrito with added chicken rice and lettuce. Order was completely wrong. Inside burrito was a bunch of chicken and a tiny amount of beans. Lettuce and rice were on the side, which makes no sense. It’s like they’re implying they want want you to add the rice and lettuce as you go? They serve their burritos wet though, so……. Order was $30 for two burritos as well… crazy!
