Reliable, family-owned neighborhood restaurant. I have now ordered from both the Mexican and Italian sections of the menu and both are worthy of a return visit. Staff is warm and attentive. Reasonable prices.

Absolutely the best paella I've eaten. I didn't think i was going to get full but wow i was wrong! Every bite was a consistent flavor! The atmosphere was perfect for a nice saturday night! We will definitely be back!

Best place I’ve ever eaten! Best of both worlds Mexican and Italian.

Came here with the family and the portions were very good. I would go for the Mexican options!

A unique restaurant offering Mexican and Italian cuisine. My partner and I started off with a delicious Greek salad and then both had fajitas. There was an abundance of the chicken and steak in the fajitas. They came out sizzling hot and were seasoned nicely and flavorful. The service was friendly and attentive. The restaurant is not large and has a friendly and family atmosphere. Definitely check it out!!!

Maybe I came on a bad night but I found the food bland, the drinks watered down, and an overpriced menu.

First time we tried this place. We really enjoyed it. My husband is a vegetarian and had a pasta. I had a Mexican dish as well as their red sangria. We liked everything we had.

We came for Saturday dinner, and it was easy to get a table, and quiet. I would give this place 3.5 stars but since Yelp only has whole stars, I'm rounding up because service was friendly. Portions were reasonably sized, though not super large. The flavors were alright, though more seasoning wouldn't have hurt, and the chicken was disappointingly a bit dry. The refried beans were good though! Perhaps their Italian selection is a bit better--we had ordered the Chimichanga, Enchiladas, and Mariachi Platter (which consisted of an enchilada, burrito, and hard shell taco). My favorite order was the Zucchini Fries, which were crispy and fresh.

We live in the neighborhood and decided to try the drinks and nachos for happy hour. Prices are extremely reasonable and portions are plentiful. The margarita was good as was the Red sangria. our server Myra switched out my sangria for me as I wasn't too fond of the white one. And she was very sweet about it. We sat outside on the side area which they disguise nicely with plantings, however,you do hear lots of Jackson avenue traffic ...but it is what it isVegetarian options: You can get meatless options

We went here for my Wife's Birthday and I can not say enough on how GREAT this place is. The meat was zesty and the Flan was soo good, made you want to slap your momma.

I ordered a basic order of chicken tacos. My god, the serving was awful. I’m not kidding, but the tacos resembled a Lunchables setup. It was bland, tasteless, and unrecognizable. I rarely post reviews but I felt compelled to warn people to stay away from this restaurant’s Frankesteinian concoctions.
