First let me say…… THIS PLACE DESERVES 10’s across the board. I have been looking for good food and when I tell you the best thing is this place …. I MEAN IT. Not only did I feel very welcomed but the food felt like I was loved. 10/10 and if I could bring a car full of people I would. This is my first try and I’m beyond amazed. They even have Carne Asada Fries on Happy hour and let me tell no I was beyond pleased, the seasoning and just fulfillment I received from them 10’s. Alsoo for all the Coca-Cola lovers they serve our favorites ( AMEN NO PEPSI) Thank you for the amazing food and great atmosphere.Also the music is the best Missy Elliot and Mary j Blige, Definitely a 10 for me.

Everything was perfect. Madi was amazing! She made me a wonderful mojito and was very sweet. Had she not told me she was training, I'd have thought she had been there for a while!Enchiladas were to die for. Great Monday specials!

New favorite breakfast burrito! Edged out Burrito Boy (which is still great). The guy there (I'm guessing he was Nelson) was delightful, one of the reasons we plan to come back. Update over a year later: Still great, Nelson is still the best too. Great customer service paired with great food! 10/10, 20/20 go here!

Edit: I returned and they took my feedback to heart and the beans are great now! Thank you Nelsons team!Awesome virgin margarita and other N/A options! Really yummy taquitos, Chile relleno and churro dessert. Knocked 1 star because the beans had absolutely no flavor and desperately needed salt. I told the server and she seemed receptive to the feedback. Hopefully the beans improve.

$90 tab for two drinks and two entrees. For Eugene Mexican food. But the worst part was they charged $9 for a side of beans and rice and they charged $1 when we asked for more lime for the tacos lol?Hope this place stops nickel and diming because the food is good, but the ambiance doesn’t support this being a great date night for the price range they’re pitching.Wait staff amazing though

The place was clean and the staff was friendly but the food was lousy. I had a shrimp burrito. It was full of cold lettuce, tomatoes and cilantro with only a few small shrimp and some rice. All I could taste was the cilantro. Mu friend ordered the tacos which were three very small soggy samplers, more like appetizers.
Food tastes like down to earth Mexican food- nothing fancy, just what I was expecting,Vegetarian options: Lots of choices

Hella busy a crowded front entrance but hip new digs after the last place they had across the street. Great service even tho it was packed on a Friday night. Burrito was huge for about 10 bucks and tasty too. Chips and salsa for $6, honey? No ma'am - you know I'll be asking for three more refills which they were happy to do. Outside area had a heater and was like being on a covered deck in someone's backyard. Owner is an absolute gem.
