I've been coming to this restaurant when visiting the area for over 10 years. This place constantly offers a great selection of Tex-Mex food in a fun, vibrant and relaxing atmosphere. It is important to note that like many other area restaurants they are BYOB. However they offer fantastic mixers/flavors for margaritas so make sure you bring the tequila. They start you off with a plentiful amount of Tortilla chips and fresh salsa. I highly recommend adding their guacamole into the mix. Over the years I can't think of anything I haven't enjoyed from their menu so feel free to explore. The portion sizes for anything on the menu are extraordinary so plan for leftovers. Also don't fear, the tacos, burritos and fajitas are all loaded with meat. The servers are very friendly and helpful and they add to the relaxed atmosphere. It can be loud inside the restaurant but it is also very kid friendly. Don't miss out on a great option for Tex-Mex at the Jersey shore!

The food was delicious. The staff was genuinely friendly and attentive. The shrimp enchilada special was very good. The dining room could use more lighting but it’s cozy.

Food was great! Very flavorful and good portions. We ordered the homemade tortilla chips and they were delicious. I ordered to pick up at 8pm and it was ready as soon as I arrived. Knocked one star off for the price, a little on the expensive side, but I suppose those are beach prices.

Ok Mexican food, I've definitely had better. The service was quick, we ordered a large take out order and it was ready in 25 mins on a Sunday night.

Went last night and it was delicious! I got cheese enchiladas in ranchero sauce and they were so good! My dad got pork tamales and I tried a bite...so good! My son got steak fajitas and I tried a bite...so good! My niece got the shrimp tacos, sister got the Mexican chopped salad with chicken, and mom got the fish taco and they all enjoyed their dinners very much too! (I didn’t try theirs because generally I swim with my friends in the ocean...I don’t eat them. And I was not feeling like a salad...pandemic was too long to not have fun last night!)Our server was an absolute pro, and I really mean that. And not just because she kept the complimentary chips and salsa flowing. The restaurant is a cute little place inside too btw.If you are in Avalon, try this place!(Little disclaimer...I don’t think they serve alcohol.)

Food itself: Delish. However, we ordered takeout and it feel apart. It was a FLAT out disaster. The Texas Toothpicks were divine, me and the fellas went to town on them. Would recommend, pleased my tastebuds.
Best Mexican in Avalon??? Must not be any other Mexican. Wow! I don't normally write reviews, good or bad. That said, this really was not good. The special grilled burrito appears to be boiled chicken and sautéed green peppers, onions and canned corn with a side of boxed rice and canned refried beans. Lots of cheese....I mean a lot!! The chips and salsa were a bag of store bought chips (still in the bag) and their "homemade" salsa. High hope for salsa , but no... We've been wanting to hit this place for years and what a perfect night..Cinco de Mayo!!! Nope... not even close. At almost 50 bucks for two burritos and chips and salsa, a big disappointment. You are way better off with Chipotle.

It's a great restaurant. The food quality is immaculate and the atmosphere is fun. It is a little loud once it gets busy but it's honestly a lot of fun.
