We were looking for authentic Mexican food, and we certainly found it in this gem! The tacos were 100% some of the best we've ever eaten. The tortillas were pure heaven!

If you're looking for AUTHENTIC, then this is a just try!! I always request the spicy salsa whenever I eat at any Mexican Restaurant, and I've had many that were very good, but the tastes that they bring out not only in their salsa, but all of their dishes, outshine anything I have had in Ohio. On top of that, the service is every bit as good, or better than the food!!
