“The food at the place is *chef's kiss* immaculate. I love Mexican food and I came from a place that is known to have wonderful authentic Mexican food, and I say this food truck is the place to go for authentic Mexican food. The people are nice and the prices are reasonable! I highly recommend their steak tacos.“

“Una excelente adición a Salisbury. El restaurante estaba un poco escondido, pero tiene amplio estacionamiento para encontrarse con mucha familia. Es difícil encontrar restaurantes Mexicanos con buen sazón. Aquí si hay sazón. El arroz era arroz 100% Mexicano, húmedo y con el saborcito a knorr. Nada seco amigos. También los platos son de porciones muy generosas. Me encanto el chile relleno. La calabacita al lado estaba deliciosa y en verdad no se ve en otros restaurantes. Me pareció un plato muy hogareño y auténtico con este elemento. Nos preguntaron si queríamos salsas que pica y no fallaron. Aunque tienen mucha clientela estadounidense si se puede comer con gusto y en confianza aquí como Mexicano. Lo digo porque a veces en busca de comida Mexicana de alto rating é tenido la experiencia de que la comida es desabrida y para un paladar americano - Y no se ve ningún hispano en la clientela . Aquí todos los empleados parecían ser de habla hispana y nos atendieron muy bien en ambos lenguajes. Ya hay planes para regresar y introducir a nuestros amigos y familia este restaurante. Le deseo buena suerte a este negocio.“

Quesadilla

“The restaurant is owned and run by the same folks that had Dona Lupe's in Granite Quarry (now closed). It's a huge space that offers games for the kids. The food is very good and fresh. The portions a quite good and fair for the price and the staff is friendly and always helpful. I could see the place getting pretty loud if all the games were going and the place was full of people. We came for lunch and there really weren't many people. I Like that they're still offering the $1 taco Tuesday special and hope that continues. I'm not sure that the new 'concept' of limited wait staff, having to order at the counter and self service drinks and the like is going to fly. One thing I really didn't like, a they're losing a star for, is they no longer offer free chips and salsa. It's just that literally EVERY other Mexican restaurant in the area does. Their chips and salsa were great. They gotta fix this decision.....“

“Good food -more options than most mexican eateries in that there are several varied sides you can choose including guacamole, salad, sweet plantains (delicious), charro beans, soup, etc among traditional rice and refried beans. We enjoyed a great lunch with large variety for pick 2 including sobes, fajitas, etc at 10-12 dollars including 2 sides. Very nice bar. Lots of seating! Unassuming location but easy to get to. We tried based on Yelp reviews and were glad we stopped!“
