Our go-to Mexican restaurant (downtown). I would have given 5 stars but they seem to not have some of the variety they used to have. I loved the tortas especially the one floating in a spicy clear broth. Also a gorgeous and tasty vegetarian dish. See photos. There is a lot of good competition for Mexican food but we still come here the most.

Best mexican food in town. Owner really cares about his staff and shows it when possible and reciprocated. Ordinary people trying to make a buck working there.

Received wrong order after the sales person had confirmed they had made a chicken burrito instead of the steak burrito. Got home only to be dissapointed that the burrito was wrong even after they had confirmed and it's not like they were super busy to get the order correctly the 1st time! If you buy there verify your food is correct before leaving.

I've had their Gorditas and I'am disap to say they are "Skimpy " when it comes to having enough meats or chicharron Also the size of the Gordita is " Kinda of" (Small) for the price! I've never been back since then,hopefully they upgrad the portions and the size of the Gordita! Until then this place is not for me

I wish we had know. It was more of a snack bar/ carry out than a restaurant BUT the food was really good and authentic, the staff accommodating, and the decor simple, welcoming and clean. We enjoyed the chili rellenos which though pricey at 17- was homemade and came with sides of frioles, rice, salad, and tortillas. The guacamole was fresh and tasty but a small serving for 7.00.

Few seats available so most people do takeouts. Great food. Horrible service. Don’t even want to talk about it.

I don’t understand how this place gets good reviews. The taco are really average. Meat is very dry. I didn’t even get salsa. There are way better tacos I have had at some food trucks. They charge 7 dollars for a side guacamole which is a super tiny portion! So I spent over 16 dollars for 2 tacos!! That’s a rip off!
One of the best Mexican restaurants in Urbana Champaign area. We love its Mexican steaks. Service is good
Amazing food. Great service. Fresh fresh fresh and favorable is all I can say! In an old train station. Will definitely return
Great place for Mexican food! It’s a little on the pricey side but you are definitely paying for quality!
