Enrique provided amazing service and truly understands what great customer service means. I had the best chili Colorado and chili verde I’ve had in quite some time. The atmosphere was pleasant and allowed for great conversation. We will be regular customers here.

The waitress got our order all wrong. Food was not as good as the last time here.

I visited this restaurant for the first time today and, unfortunately, it’ll be my last. While the food was genuinely good, the service left a lot to be desired. We arrived around 2:55pm and I asked if it was too late to order from the lunch menu. We were told it was, even though the lunch special ends at 3pm — which felt unnecessarily rigid, especially since the menu items are essentially the same. I went ahead and ordered from the regular menu, no problem, but the service overall was lacking. We weren’t checked on until our plates were nearly empty, and it took forever to close out and pay. It just didn’t feel like we were welcomed or valued as guests. It’s disappointing because the food was solid, but great food should be paired with at least decent service. I’ll just take my business across the street to Chef Tito’s where the owner goes out his way to check on the guest, and your valued as a customer.

We stopped in for dinner a few nights ago. Got seated right away and the menu had so much great stuff. The kid section was by far the best we've seen. Perfect for if you want Mexican but your kiddos are picky. Food was great, and came hot and fresh. The only thing is they kept walking by us but never filled our drinks. Just a personal pet peeve of mine. Eventually we asked someone else walking by and got to go cups because we were nearly done. But other than that it was a great visit and I'd 100% go back.

Best Mexican food in NKC!!!

We enjoyed their nacho with shrimp, chicken, and steak. It was even better the next day for leftovers. I stumbled across this restaurant, looking for open food places when loved ones were in the hospital. The staff was friendly.
