The food is really great for suxh a great price, and with four kids I've not made it out of a restaurant paying through the nose at other places so I'll definitely be back. Best carne asada plate I've ever had! This was our first time and my kids were given a treat!

Great spot! Jade was our server and was very welcoming and attentive! Awesome deals on their specials and generous portions. They offer $5 margaritas on Tuesday’s, which are absolutely delicious, plus $3 dollar beers. Free chips and salsa which is a bonus and $2 tacos that are pretty tasty. Nice bar with video lottery as well. If you’re getting tired of the high restaurant prices in Bend come here and you’ll definitely get the most bang for your buck without giving up quality food and service!

Tasty tacos, delicious creamy pinto beans and refreshing not too-sweet margaritas. Excellent selection of sauces. Creamy serrano is chef's kiss!
We will be back.

Good tacos, heavy duty burritos, amazing molcajete, dang good drink pricing and great service. My new favorite spot.
Their molcajete comes fully loaded with shrimp, chicken, and carne asada along with a plate of rice, beans and tortillas. You can easily split it with 2-3 people. They run different daily specials too, happy hour cocktails as low as $5 and most beers are $3.

They have a half dozen different salsas too and they are all really good. Can’t wait to go back again, this is my new favorite dine in spot.

A true hidden gem among Bend’s big-name Mexican spots — and honestly, one of the best meals we’ve had anywhere. The flow when you walk in is a little quirky, but once you’re seated, treat yourself to a passionfruit margarita (made right there!) and kick back. Pro tip: hit happy hour — they’re only about $6, and dangerously easy to love.

Next, they bring out a rainbow lineup of in-house salsas, from sweet and tangy to “kick-you-in-the-pants” hot. The avocado salsa? Chef’s kiss. 🥑🔥

If you like spicy, you must order the Molcajete Bowl La Diabla. It’s basically a protein volcano — shrimp, carne asada, chicken, pork, cheese, all simmering in a sauce so good we were scraping the bowl like it was our job. (Not actual nutrition facts, but it’s easily 300+ grams of pure flavor.)

The tacos are spot-on too — the pastor with pickled onions hit all the right notes. And don’t skip the horchata — it’s sweet, creamy, and the perfect cool-down after the Diabla bowl.

We love it here. It’s officially our new east-side hangout, and we’ve already been back twice since our first visit & can’t wait for more!

Food was okay but nothing special; it was somewhat over priced.

In addition, this place has a weird mix of service and self serve. The waitress will take your order and bring you drinks but you have to go get your own chips and salsa (dirty handles for the spoon and tongs). I would have much preferred to order at the counter as this place seemed too casual for table side service.

There are also too many passive aggressive signs put up everywhere.

Unfortunately I won’t be coming back. There are too many good places in Bend to spend $50+ on a lunch for two.
