The enchiladas here are delicious, and the salsa and chips to start are the best I’ve ever had. I recommend eating here as the staff are lovely and ensure good service!

Went down hill???This was the best Mexican around but now with the mama gone it's just trash. It's not the same at all. I'm so sad about it. It was fantastic. The atmosphere has even changed. I wish I would have gone more often!!!Covid changed a lot of good things. And the menu and this restaurant is definitely one of them.I was willing to give the a shot upon my much disappointment arrival post covid. And was more disappointed all around the longer I was there.. It's NOT THE SAME as it used to be.. #devastated. The mama made these delicious hot sauses omg they were so flavorful and spicy. To die for!!! Never had such amazing home made sauses at any restaurant as this mama HAD. Mexican is my favorite. And this restaurant was so flipping ahhhhhhhhmazing.. Now. It's just flat. No possess no flare no atmosphere I can't believe they changed the atmosphere in there. that was so devastating to see. Super sad and upset at this loss..

They proclaim "authentic ", I have lived in Mexico full time for 15 years and 7 years 1/2 time No one puts Mozzarella cheese in a taco, taco El Pastor is shaved pork, not chunks If you want to be seen as "authentic " spend the money to purchase the proper products, research the product you are selling I was told that this place is owned by Mexican Nationals, I have had better in TexMex places in Texas, New Mexico, Arizona etc.

We had dinner for my wife's Birthday last night. We've always enjoyed the food here. Soup and enchiladas were great and they had Topo chico.Dietary restrictions: They had plenty of gluten free and vegetarian options.

As a Peterborough local and self proclaimed Mexican food enthusiast I cannot recommend this restaurant more, by far the best Mexican food I’ve ever had in my life yet alone in Peterborough. The food is delicious and has soul. The owner Sandra has really perfected her families recipes and has captured a true essence of Mexico in her cooking and atmosphere inside the restaurant. I recommend the soups as well as the tinga de pollo! Don’t miss out, anyone passing through Peterborough needs to visit!Parking: Parking lot located right next to the restaurant as well as free + paid street parking nearby within walking distance!Wheelchair accessibility: No stairs! Easy to get in and out. Patio is open during summer which may make access even easier!

Had a pleasant meal here with my mom and wife. We made a reservation and were given a table near the entrance which wasn't great because everytime someone came in and out we got a cold blast of air. Two of us ordered enchiladas and one order fajitas. All the food was excellent. The lime coconut margarita was amazing!?. All in all a good meal, we were checked on only once but it was busy in there. Everyone was smiling and we definitely enjoyed our meal. Was 150.00 including tip for 3 of us. We all had a margarita as well. We will be back for sure.Parking: Free street parking on weekends all over the place. Many paid lots around too.

So disappointing! I ordered three Taco Feast kits for a birthday celebration. First of all the tortilla’s were freezer burned, dry and crumbled when we tried to make our tacos. The chicken and pork were kinda flavourless, the vegan option was mushrooms in tomato sauce (also flavorless). No sour cream included. The salsa was good. Hard to believe the food is authentic from old family recipes. We ordered enough food so everyone could eat lots but we didn’t make it through half. Once everyone had one taco they refused more. We all agreed that the food wasn’t even mediocre. The staff person was nice when I picked it up. Won’t be getting food there again.

Really great food. I don't live locally but when I visit this town this is where I want to eat. It's my favorite. That soup was fantastic!! I had a virgin margarita and I really loved it. Everyone was happy with what they ordered. The chips and cells are really good too.
