Excellent atmosphere and decor. Food was good and portions were big. Had a bit more of a southwestern taste than we were used to do but still good.

Order was brought out wrong on multiple visits, one of our dining party has hair in the food, and the last time I went, they made a bill issue they refused to correct. Minor mix ups are ok with me, but this all happened back to back.

Not really family friendly. Waitress came and took our order and 30 minutes later still no food. Had to flag her down to tell her to just bring it to go. Birthday happened while we were there and they blared the speakers so loud all the kids and babies were crying.
When we got home with the food it was good but recommend takeout for families with young kids.

Food so good I forgot to take pictures!!!!

If you’re looking for a spot that serves up a fiesta for your taste buds, look no further! This Mexican restaurant is a vibrant celebration of culture, complete with colorful decor and lively Hispanic music that transports you straight to a sun-soaked plaza in Mexico. The scenery alone deserves a standing ovation!

The servers here are the true MVPs; they’re always professional, friendly, and somehow manage to make every dining experience feel like a family gathering. I’ve dined here countless times, and I can confidently say that I’ve never encountered a hiccup—just smooth sailing and delicious flavors.

Whether you’re flying solo or wrangling the whole clan, the table options are perfect for any occasion. And let’s talk food: the menu is a treasure trove of choices! From classic quesadillas to sizzling fajitas and the show-stopping Molcajete, there’s a little something for everyone. Pro tip: kick things off with their fantastic chips and salsa, then take your experience to the next level at their salsa/ceviche bar—trust me, your taste buds will thank you!

Now, if you’re like me and have a soft spot for Birria Tacos with Consume broth, you’re in for a treat, but let’s be real—everything on the menu is a winner! And don’t forget to wash it down with a cocktail; the Top Shelf Cantarita is my personal favorite, but with a full bar at your disposal, the possibilities are endless!

In conclusion, this restaurant has all the right ingredients—great vibes, mouth-watering dishes, and a staff that makes you feel right at home. Dining here isn’t just a meal; it’s a fiesta! So gather your friends, family, or even that neighbor you’ve been avoiding, and get ready for a delicious adventure!

We love this place! We have gotten to know the staff over the past 5 years. At this point, the atmosphere is family like and super friendly. They are people pleasers, all of the staff that is. The food is great, and the Margheritas are wonderful!
