Bilingual service and amazing food. This is a great problem to have being they stuffed my tacos so full it left one inch of separation between shells when I closed them to eat. Definitely going

The food here is delicious. Chill atmosphere. Servers are kind and do their job well. The frozen margaritas are top notch!

Today I was very disappointed with this place. Not only did they get my order incorrect, the staff charged me twice and had an attitude about not leaving a tip, mind you it was carry out. I have been here multiple times but this will be my last, the order was wrong but also the meat didn’t taste fresh. Sucks cause this was my go to Mexican spot in Cedar Lake. I’m done.Dietary restrictions: Lactose intolerant and they put cheese on my tacos after I requested onions and cilantro.

Great food and staff. The prices are good. They play authentic mexican music. We haven't been disappointed yet with the food. Sorry no photos. But we did have leftovers because the portions are generous.

Very disappointed. Food took almost an hour then when it was served it was cold and the tacos had a strange taste. They were concentrating on the take out orders and ignoring the dine in customers. The server never came back to check on us until after we got the check. Won’t be back.

This place was a rockstar when it opened up, but the last 2 times I have had dry food, grisly meat, C- food at the best. Just left there and the service this time was D- (wait staff on their phone as we waited for the check.)With the abundance of Mexican cuisine available in Cedar Lake, it will be a long time before I return here.

I always have to get up and ask for check or get my own stuff. They don't pay attention. I go every week for 4 years only cuz I love right here. I just got overcharged and no chips for my guacamole I

Dined in tonight (Wednesday) at 8:00 PM and the restaurant was still busy. Immediately upon entering, you're welcomed by very loud music. It's overwhelming for me. The complimentary chips and salsa is always appreciated! The servers were friendly. However, I will probably not order from here again. Their bathroom was dirty (dirty changing table, garbage on floor, questionable toilet...) and a fly kept hanging around our meals. This just makes me question how sanitary the restaurant really is.

Food was good. Tasty. But the four meals we ordered they only gave us one cup of sauce. Good thing I checked before I left.

My first time here today with friends and it was great. I had shrimp fajitas and tried their strawberry margaritas, both were delicious! My friends had a taco platter and a taco salad, they enjoyed their choices as well.I'll definitely be back!

The steak burrito is to die for! Mostly meat, not filler. And the flavoring is awesome. Definitely my burrito spot.

Good stuff here! An unexpected gem that rivals some of the better California places. Big portions of all the classic taqueria fare. Burritos (wet, super, regular, all your heart could desire), tacos, plates, tortas, quesadillas, etc. Go wild. Portions are absolutely gigantic and the flavors are good. My carne asada wet burrito hit the spot, and then some.
