“I was looking for some good Mexican food! And I’m definitely impressed! The customer service was great! They made sure to check on me every step of the of the way the margarita was a 10 out of 10 and the food was made quickly fresh and so good! Portions were great and atmosphere was just nice! If I’m ever in town again I’ll definitely be back there!“

“SINCE I LIVE RIGHT BEHIND LOWE'S AND HAVE SEEN THEIR TRUCK THERE, I POPPED OVER TO GET SOME LUNCH. THEY SERVE THE ABSOLUTE BEST PAPUSAS I HAVE EVER EATEN. THEY ARE COOKED PERFECTLY, A LITTLE CRISP AND THE CHEESE AND CHICKEN WERE JUST SPOT ON. TYPICALLY I HAVE ONLY HAD A RED SAUCE SERVED WITH PAPUSAS, BUT THEIR GREEN SAUCE WENT VERY WELL WITH THE SLAW. I ALSO ORDERED A GORDITA, BUT COULD NOT EAT DUE TO BEING TOO FULL FROM THE PAPUSAS, WHICH COME 3 TO AN ORDER. FANTASTIC PRODUCT.“

“We went here for the first time the other day and it was incredible. I was blown away by the 100% health inspection rating and the awards. Then when we got our food we realized why they were so highly awarded. I git the steak Torta and it was delicious; my fiance got the steak borrito and he was very satisfied. The servings are on the larger side so their pricing is worth it! And everyone was so friendly and nice!“

“We take out are food and it has all way been very good!! The meat very soft and very good taste .“

“Great place“

“We have always had a great eating experience at Colimas. The food is fresh, flavorful and priced right.The waitstaff are very friendly and welcoming. Our go-to place for Mexican food.“

“We love Los Amigos! This family run restaurant does it all right! We have a vegetarian and also a gluten-free diner in the family and there are lots of options! The staff is so friendly, the margaritas and food are so delicious, and the restaurant is clean as can be inside and out. We recommend the Pollo Chipotle, Fiesta Bowl and Pollo Santa Fe- but everything is good!“

“My fiancé and I dinned in tonight with our 4 month old son for Valentine’s Day! The food was absolutely out of this world! Steak was cooked perfectly, the potatoes were literally to die for, the asparagus was crunchy and fresh, and our crab cake🤤🤤🤤 everything was so perfect and the atmosphere was perfect. You could taste the love that’s made into the food! We felt so welcomed with our baby, it was our first real big dinner since he’s been born! Mama had to eat!🍴🥩 We love Fuego! Our server Maddie (I believe that was her name), was also fantastic! Checked in with us and made sure everything was perfect! If you’re wondering if you should try Fuego…answer is, YES! The owners David and Leah are so dedicated to their work and to show their love for every single customer, it’s all a big family and you can feel it the second you walk in!❤️“

“I grew up eating at this restaurant, and didn’t realize I took it for granted! I have moved around several states and have yet to find Mexican restaurants and dishes that are close to comparable. A Mexican restaurant that is worth our 90 minute drive 😋“

“Excellent food, reasonable prices, large portions, very good service. We went to El Patron on a busy Friday night. We had to wait about 10 minutes for a table, which was very reasonable for a busy Friday. We were greeted promptly, received our drink order quickly, and our food arrived in a reasonable amount of time. Our food arrived hot and was exactly how we ordered it. One minor complaint was the queso was very runny and would pretty much drip off of the tortilla chips back into the bowl or onto the table. It tasted fine, but was very thin. Overall, a great experience and we'll be back.“

“Delicious and authentic tacos (and other dishes like tamales), with reasonable prices. Highly recommended!“

“It was all hot and delicious. Truly a comfort food always fulfilling.
