This spot rocks to the bone we always have a gas blowin stanky dance when we come here the staff is amazing and prices rock . My aunt and I always got a kick outta the groovy fart barkers posted up at the stinky wagon doing their best to keep it cool while the teens rocket munched another sneaker dip

I like sneaking away here with coworkers at lunch time. I’ve been here a handful of times and each time has been really great. Service is fast and food is delicious and fresh. Only regret is getting full on chips and dip before my entree.

Went here for years, and years and everything was great from the appetizers to the food and margaritas, finishing full plates and all. Now it's been over 3 years since "something" changed and everything is different and makes my stomach clinch up every time after just 1-2 bites of anything, and I can't eat more than a dozen bites of anything because my body goes into a kind of shutdown... I don't have allergies, and no other restaurant has ever done this to me so there is something VERY wrong with what changed at this restaurant after covid, spoiled food supply or untrained cooks, etc.

Had tacos de lengua and chile diablo. Plate was warmed which kept the tortillas from tacos cooking but the celantro and onions were fresh and lengua was cooked to my liking. Had the happy hour margaritas which were pretty good for the price. Little on the pricy side for my liking but it was worth it.

Amazing salsa. Lunch option burrito was smaller than I preferred, but I bet their main menu one is larger.

I live in New Mexico and visiting for a little bit. The prices were much higher than I am use to. $10 for a queso appetizer seemed high so I didn't get it. I ordered off the lunch specials and paid $11 for a cheese and bean enchilada. Again more expensive than I am use to for less food but it was good. Now the chips and salsa was delicious. I would go again.. like supporting smaller businesses. Staff was very friendly.Vegetarian options: Because everything is handmade, it makes substituting much easier.

Simple... the best Mexican food in the region.I have literally never ordered any other entrée than the Loco Burrito (pictured top left in their menu, a few pages in). It's so good, all the waiters know what I get, and they're always happy to serve; I love the staff like they're my family.Add a little salt to the chips and salsa, and it's among the best around. The queso fundido is chorizo and melted queso cheese that I could just have them put in a cup for me to drink. It's so, so good.Also, their flank steak reminds me of the flavor of flank steak from a Brazilian steakhouse which, is my favorite. And the Loco Burrito has flank steak, chorizo, and chicken (and it's packed!!!). Oh... my... word... I'm salivating right now (and I just took my dad there today).I can't say enough except that I wish they'd expand up north where I'm moving to (Tipp City and Troy).
