Food is good but to go and door dash sucks. The people at the register doesn't know anything over charged for tortillas because they didn't know they came with the alombres

I went there for the first time last night. The building was too noisy. The service is good but the food I have was too greasy.

Owner is always rude. I come often, but as of yesterday (08/7/2025) I will not return. I cut into my burrito and a bunch of juice came pouring out of it; NEVER has that happen. I always order the same burrito and it’s never had so much of an oil watery and greasy type of liquid coming out of my burrito. I asked the waiter who happened to be the owner if they can remake it. He had an attitude and said that it’s already cooked. They can’t make another one. very rude about it, stated I come here often and it’s never look like that. He acted as if there wasn’t anything he could do about it so yes, I disputed the charges with my bank left no tip and left the restaurant. I will never return. seems as if they don’t want Black people in their establishment anyways.

Good food, great service. Took a star away because strawberry margaritas were made with a mix, no fresh fruit.

The Fajita Taco salad with shrimp, steak, and chicken is excellent. I will definitely order it again.

More Americanised Mexican not really authentic. Ok for Missouri.

Alejandro carrasco

Terrible place, the waiter was very rude to me, I do not recommend it at all, and the owners are very arrogant.

Jocelyn was quick and friendly. Request her section as she will go above and beyond. Atmosphere clean and prices are very reasonable. Restaurant has all the things you could ask for from a Mexican restaurant in the Midwest. Fajitas are solid size and plenty to share with a single order.

Food came hot and ready and fast! You will not be let down with this experience. Stop scrolling further and just go eat here already.

Parking: Back of building and nearby shops to park during overflow.
