Can’t read their tickets. So many times I’ve asked for just meat and cheese and I get onion and celatro. Looks like I’m not eating dinner tonight thanks. Not the first time.

Went for lunch. Not the biggest menu of choices like many Mexican restaurants in the area but it seems to have all the main choices. The service was good not great.

The chips and salsa were great. I had a taco, a burrito, and an enchilada. All were very tasty. The server was great. The Margarita I had was yummy!

Not sure where all these great reviews are coming from, I was very disappointed. The service was very friendly and the restaurant was clean and well kept. The Food however isn't the star here, I would call the style of cooking either Tex-Mex or Gringo-Mex. The burrito comes with meat only in a 10" flour tortilla and had some kind of white queso cheese sauce on top served more like an enchilada, the tacos have just lettuce, they do not make their own taco salsas, only bottled salsas at the table, The red salsa that comes with the chips is extremely mild but tasty.

Used to be the best mexican in Rock Island. Maybe in quad cities. Went Thursday evening, chips were hard, and salsa was watered down. Like they were skimping. Tacos were ok and wife's chicken was good but had peppers and onions in it. Never before has it had peppers and onions. Are they using them as a filler? Used to love going but will go to other Mexican restaurants.
