Just moved here from cali, been trying to find a place that has good tacos like they do in San Diego . Their tacos remind me of back home. Defiantly best place to get authentic tacos !

I'm me

I was in town on Buisnes from Chicago- Was curious to see how a local Mexican restaurant tasted. Service was zero out of 10!! I had to walk inside from my outside seat to get a waiter to come bring me my check- not one sever came to check on me the entire time I dined. A local Recommended another spot down the street I quickly left and never looked back. If you're in town do not go to this place. It's not authentic- the food taste like soap in the service is trash.

I've dined here a couple times and never been disappointed. I'm happy to report that they have a fairly extensive vegan selection, but I will admit that I question if their sour cream is vegan (I didn't bother to ask, I just didn't eat it). There were four people in my party this last time and we had everything from chicken nuggets to chicken chimichangas to vegan fajitas. Everything was fresh, hot, and tasty. Our server, an older gentleman, was on top of everything and always checking in on us.

It's nice to see that there's a good place in downtown to get vegan food now.

Kernel approved: 5/๐Ÿ—๐Ÿ—๐Ÿ—๐Ÿ—๐Ÿ—

Vegetarian options: They have specified vegan areas in the menu. I would suggest asking if the sour cream is vegan though before you order.

Dietary restrictions: Have vegan and vegetarian items on the menu

Parking: It's downtown. You can always find parking, free or paid, but you may have to walk

Kid-friendliness: They have a kids menu and it includes nuggies

Enjoyed the fajita salad and the service was fast. Overall good experience. Similar to other Mexican restaurants in Owensboro.
Best part is the atmosphere and live music from the downtown streets of Owensboro. Great outdoor seating area as well.

Wonderful food. Great service and some of the best GD cheese sauce your lips have ever touched. Small location, but the outdoor seating is nice.

Ate lunch here today. I got the #47 and it was delicious. Got beans instead of rice. And ate outside. It was a good day to enjoy doing that!!!

Found this spot on a day trip to Owensboro. Actually, it was one of the very few places open on Labor Day. Nice outdoor seating area. Food was delicious and the portion sizes were big. Server was attentive and was on it with everything we asked for. It was a very nice lunch!

Rude management. Good food but God forbid they mess up your order because it's not their fault, it's yours.

$10 lunch special includes state tax and soft drink. Credit card charge $0.40 is noted on the menu and the ticket. It is three miles farther than Ernesto's There is angle parking near by (across Second on St. Ann). Somewhat larger portions. I liked the chips and salsa (didn't like Ernesto's). This is my new goto lunch spot.

Ordered street tacos and they were mostly gristle that was unappetizing as well as very unchewable

Wow. Didnโ€™t expect my favorite Kentucky Mexican joint in Owensboro, but it is.

Food was fantastic. Great sitting outside. Fajitas were seasoned and cooked perfectly.

Pricing was more than fair. 5 stars.
