So sad to see this place close. The owner was so kind and the food was authentic as you'll get outside of Mexico. We drove there on Friday evening and rolled up to a "for rent" sign. Just heartbreaking to see that. Thanks to all who treated us to wonderful food and service over the last few years. This gem will be missed.

Good atmosphere, food was delivered fast and delicious.

I stopped in for a quick bite to eat. Simple chicken fajitas and a sweet tea. The sweet tea tasted like bad tap water and the guacamole and lettuce for the fajitas had started turning brown. Chicken was dried out and obviously quickly reheated once I ordered. Very unimpressed will not go back.

Have only gone a few times with a friend for beers, but they bring you chips, salsa, AND bean dip. The salsa is very good. Our only complaint is how hot it has been inside the dining area. We've been going around 530pm, and it isn't much hotter outside. The beers are nice and cold, but we were visibly sweating. Probably won't go back until it cools off outside a lot more.

I've been here many times over the years, love it. They have many of the traditional dishes you find at American Mexican restaurants, however they put their own spin on a lot of things. Off the top of my head I can say we've enjoyed the fajitas, burritos, and enchiladas. Ask for their different salsas, they have several varieties, and you won't be disappointed.

Nope. Don't do it. I am still sitting at my table, so just to keep it brief: Fajitas - dry & tasteless (could only eat one); service - slow & confused; facility - dirty & hot (83⁰), smelled like fresh paint.

First time eating here. The AC must be broken because it was 83°. The women’s bathroom was disgusting and smelled awful from no air flow and lack of cleaning. The steak fajitas and steak tacos - the steak tasted tough and bland and like it wasn’t beef (I’ve eaten dog many times before overseas and that is what this reminded me of). My ten year-old choked on his beef!It cost us $50 - so the entire meal was far overpriced as well. The guacamole also had skin on the onions in it and the rice was over cooked and mushy, like it came out of a can.I don’t recommend this place. Not just because of the smells, heat and sticky feeling all over - sometimes hole in the walls have great food. This one did not.

We've eaten here twice, the first time being through GrubHub. Everything was good then, but I'll mainly talk about today. We were seated quickly, our chips and dip given, and our orders were taken quickly. The service was great. Now our food came out pretty quickly. My inlaws got the ACP, which when it came out looked delicious and was great portions. I ordered the Mexico City tacos, which when it came out I was a little disappointed it doesn't come with rice but trust me, with chips and salsa, the entire dish is super filling. Chicken and steak were solid and tasted good with the guacamole and lettuce added, but I cannot stop thinking about the carnitas. Super delicious and juicy, and I'm craving it again as I type this. As I said, I added the guacamole salad to my tacos along with the black beans. Can I also add, usually restaurant black beans are a hit or miss, but these black beans? Out of this world. I live in Wendell and have a Mexican restaurant here, but I am willing to drive the extra minutes to get this dish again.

First time here and it was amazing. Got take out. The Tacos are to die for. Does not seem to be very busy during the day. Staff is friendly and helpful. Order was fast and accurate. Totally recommend!

This place must have changed management and cook. We ate there for lunch. My tacos were extremely salty!!! Plus they charged me for a small container of sour cream. After we paid and we were walking out I noticed their rating was 90. We use to love this restaurant - we will not be back!!

Was looking forward to eating here but…..received a menu that had food on severalpages. Asked for another one and that one was also very dirty. There was a lot of salsa dip on both menus. I asked if they cleaned them after each use and they said yes. Definitely not cleaned. I left, made me think about what we cannot see that is not clean ?

It looked very sketchy when arriving but that all changed after we were greeted and seated. The food was much better than expected. We'll definitely be going back. I loved the complimentary beans with the salsa.

Best Mexican food. We drive 45 minutes just to eat here. Friendly staff and fair prices.
