Great Mexican food. Their beans & rice is really good as well as their thin chips and salsa. The staff are friendly, take care of you, and make you feel at home. I like it here and I will be stopping by the next time I'm in Brownsville. 😀

First time eating there they food 🍲 was on point they served as u come in food was good and hot they was friendly and they made sure u was good the whole time u are there to see if u needed and thing else

Excellent service, pass on the margarita because the liquor selection is kind of "meh" and the bar area seems a little sticky. The enchilada supreme is a good variety of flavors and the chips are crispy and not oily with queso so thick it just clings right to the chips wonderfully. Again, the service was great but it's definitely not the cleanest dive around but the prices are decent and the food good.
