Everything about this restaurant was great! Not very big, and I think that's what made it that much more enjoyable. 👍👍

Literally horrified at how they even call this a Mexican restaurant. They tell me they’re out of queso, and that there won’t be any made in time before I leave. Then I’m reading other reviews and seeing that this is common. Sounds like laziness in the kitchen. There is no way. So I ask for tacos, not realizing what they’re about to do. I asked for two beef two chicken, and they refused to give me my beef ones and then I’m absolutely baffled and shocked to see they put SHREDDED cheese on my tacos that weren’t even correct. I have never been to a Mexican restaurant that does this. Oh you think that’s it? Mid-chew of my third taco, there were hairs in it and I had to spit it out and couldn’t even eat my last one because that made me lose my appetite. Never. Again.

The food is great, fresh and authentic. The service is great as well and I liked the atmosphere. Parking can be tight if you're in a trailer but not a problem if you're in a car. Definitely recommend this restaurant!

We were seated quickly, service excellent, salsa delicious, fajitas good, but taco salad was unseasoned shredded chicken and too bland for me. We would go again, but would try a different dish.

Came in, looks underwhelming when you walk in. The server was great, the salsa was SPICY, just the way I love it. It had so much flavor, seems to be made in house. I ordered chorizo queso and a pork tamale. Queso was good, tamale probably would have been good when it was fresh, it had a faint flavor of refrigerator or freezer. My partner got the fajitas supreme, I am a strong believer that a good Mexican restaurant always has amazing rice and beans, in this case both were honestly, appallingly salty. Shrimp was overcooked. Overall, not great. Still tipped 20 percent, but I would not recommend.

I was passing through their town from the interstate and stop to eat here. A few people walked in, who the waiters and cooks knew one of their friends, and he was just staring at me. The whole time it was weird. I don't think the people in this town have seen anyone else outside of their own town before it was weird being stared at by the small town people.

We’ve only dined here once for dinner but it was great. Homemade salsa, delicious guacamole and large portions. We had the shrimp fajitas and the chicken enchiladas and a tostada. The meal was not only full of flavor, the plating looked good (odd to say I know). The restaurant staff were friendly and the service quick. Highly recommend for a great meal.
