“Having moved into the Gretna area for a job in Port Sulphur, it took some time to find a place serving Mexican food that was similar to what was back home in Houston.
Service was usually very good. And when I was in a rush, I couldn't always count on their To Go Orders to be ready on time...

Good food, good service, and they recently got their liquor license sorted out for those who would like a cold drink.

I'd recommend this place to those coming in from out if town. You will notice a change in the taste of the food at other locations while this place taste more like home..“

“My husband was determined to try this place. We're california transplants, so we grew up on tacos from places where you've gotta speak Spanish to order. Personally, I dearly miss the hole in the wall mexican steam table restaurants that dish out like a panda express. All that being said, we love this place. Gives us a little taste of home that's more familiar than those super fancy taco spots around town. The food is well priced, fast and delicious. I always get a side of frijoles for my toddler and he destroys the entire order by himself.“
