The food and staff here are the best. We usually visit once a week because the food and margaritas are fabulous. The staff is also amazing. Love this place!!!

$3.50 is way too much for a tiny beef or steak taco.

One of the better local Mexican spots. Food quality is definitely worth the wait. Service might run slow but they keep employees because they don't overstaff. I'd rather wait an extra 15 minutes for food that is delicious from a server who can live off the money they make there.
Nobody's standing around picking their nose. They're working their butts off.
So you can go to El Salto or what used to be that awesome place next to the village... And have a super quick subpar meal or you can wait and have a good one.
My review is specifically aimed at the people who complain about the service. If you're in a hurry go to Taco Bell.

Very impressed by everything! The Horchat is $5 but it comes in a HUGE cup and tastes great. My BF recommends the cheese tacos. He gets them all the time. I had the shrimp fajita - delicious. It was just when we went so I’m guessing a lot of people agree that It’s a great place!

I loved this place! I would definitely come back! The food was amazing! The atmosphere is amazing! Waitress was very nice! And their salsa is pretty decent. I really enjoyed snacking on it! They're beans tasted a little bit weird in my opinion. But I think it's just that I don't enjoy beans in general and I've always thought they were kind of mid. 5 Stars! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Perfect tortilla chips - thin and flavorful. The Torta de Cochanita had THE MOST AMAZING pork ever. The tomato actually had grill marks on it. Avocado was diced and perfectly fresh. The bread was fresh baked. The combination of onion, poblano and bacon, took an amazing torta to off the charts outstanding. On a 5 star scale, this place was an 8. What a gem!

Accommodated our group of 10 without any hesitation. There were larger groups. So it got noisy. But all having fun.
Stephanie served our table well and promptly. Thank you...

The restaurant was clean and tidy. The food is okay. Table service is extremely slow. Prices are on the higher end of what you'd expect in a strip mall. Portions are large, but once again, the price reflects that. Would go back again but would not be my first choice.

My husband and I dined here tonight and we were surprised by the gourmet Mexican food. I had the best burrito ever! I ordered the Fajita Burrito with grilled chicken and OMG it was out of this world! It had carmelized onions, strips of tender chicken, exquisite seasonings, a delectable cheese sauce dripping over the top and more! It came with a side of delicious rice, gaucamole, pica de gayo that I topped with cilantro. I asked the waitress for some to sprinkle over my meal. My husband had the taco trio meal and was very impressed by the quantity and the incredibly tasty tacos! Both our meals were very generous in size and we took home our leftovers. The wait staff is fast and very courteous. We had chips and salsa delivered to our table twice without us even asking! If you are looking for incredible tasting authentic Mexican food, this is the place to go! Great prices, excellent food and incredible service!

Worse food ever. I have never had a burrito that salty in all my life.
More guacamole then ever needs to be a a plate. The waitress was a snob. She was not helpful at all. I sent my plate back my boyfriend didn't eat his and we walked out paying over $50 .. I don't know how this place is open I feel like they owe us for trying their disgusting food.
