My husband absolutely adores Mexican food and we were super excited to find a buffet near us! There was a variety of things to chose from and they even had an omelette station! The food was delicious! The restaurant itself is gorgeous and we hope to go there soon again.

My favorite Mexican restaurant in Slidell.
I have not found a dish I do not like.
Very friendly staff.
I usually go every week.

Two dining areas inside and a large outside covered area. I believe each has more than 10 tables. Great decorations and colorful artistic lights inside.
Two parking areas and also some street parking.
