We both enjoyed the BEST Mexican meals ever! The wife had a couple big tacos that were really good and I had a fajita quesadilla which was fantastic! Lots of meat and freshly grilled veggies and a ton of melted cheese over everything! It was soooo good! AND finally, their salsa tasted like my favorite fresh, out of the garden homestyle salsa. We'll definitely stop again next time we're passing through Paxton!

So enjoyed our breakfast - the Mexican omelets and home fries were outstanding - none of that mystery filler stuff in the eggs like you get at some places. Come get yourself a huge, delicious breakfast at a great price!

Food and staff is excellent! My favorite restaurant in Paxton. I catered chicken tamales, chips and salsa, elote, rice and beans from Hacienda Cantina for a family gathering to accompany the beef and shrimp tacos I was cooking. Everyone loved the food. It was fresh, hot, delicious, and exactly as I had hoped.

Solid specials with good service. The quesabirria taco special is the best.

Loved the food and such a wonderful, friendly staff! Stopped in while in PAXTON and learned this restaurant has new owners since about six months ago. I was only there 1 time before quite a while ago. Ordered the grilled shrimp taco dinner, which was delicious. Absolutely loved the melted cheese on top of the tacos, as I never had it that way before! I then learned from the waitress the man who served me was actually the owner ….(The waitresses came in a little later, as I was there early. Both waitresses were so friendly and nice! It really means a lot when people are so kind and take time to get to know you, even when you are a stranger in town! Ordered a dozen homemade tamales to go! Can’t wait to try them as I heard they are delicious! I will definitely be back to try more dishes!
Oh…forgot to mention…very clean restaurant with large bar and TV’s …AND…GAMBLING MACHINES in the back!
Parking: Parking in front with a handicap spot on street and also parking on side of restaurant.
Wheelchair accessibility: Large ramp to enter the restaurant right in front, handicap parking in front also.

First and foremost, this menu is more than 80% American diner fare with some basic Mexican options scattered far and between. Due to the lack of Mexican options, I ordered a Reuben which they were out of followed by their Deluxe Burger with a medium-well cook. While the burgers taste was nice, the burger was more medium-rare than medium-well(photo). Since the waitress was kind and quick, I did not share my dismay with her. Aside from the lack of even semi-authentic Mexican cuisine, the most disappointing part of my visit came from the well-cleaned bathroom with no soap or paper towels. Obviously that’s very concerning as I’m doubtful the cooks have their own private restroom with soap and paper towels.
