I have driven by this restaurant so many times and never stopped in because honestly I thought it was a tattoo shop. It was some of the most elevated and wonderful Mexican food I have ever had. The chips and salsa were good, the salsa was fresh and full of tomatoes, and the beans, were thick and black, and tasted like pork. The short rib enchilada is on the spicy side and absolutely fantastic. They are covered in some kind of super spicy, but sweet sauce. I had never tasted anything...read full review

This place is very good. They have Modelo negra, which I really appreciate. It’s my favorite. Their halibut tacos were VERY delicious. We even got dessert— which was very impressive to look at. I think the churros were made and refrigerated beforehand which is my only complaint. It would have been better if they were fresh and not cold. Also there’s a parking lot in the back. I will be back and I want to try a margarita next time.

My daughter and I have been here twice. I’ve lived all over the world and been to Mexico several times and this is the BEST Mexican food I have ever had. The steak fajitas have the best flavor and are soooo tender! The chips come out hot and crispy. The shrimp ceviche is top notch and the margaritas are delicious and unique! I tried the Cadilla today and it was the best. Isabel has been our waitress both times and she is very attentive and kind. Could not recommend this restaurant...read full review
