Okay start to finish when we walked in and sat down the place was kind of dark to be honest but when we met our waitress everything was great she was so helpful and knowledgeable brought everything when we asked for it immediately and was perfect on accuracy the food was big portions and delicious such a great experience

The best Mexican places are always in a strip mall, aren't they? Well, this one is. My family is from Southern California and they know good Mexican food. We all love this place! I could eat only the corn-on-the-cob (aka Mexican Street Corn) and be totally happy! They have the best I ever tasted! All the food is good, vegan, meat lovers, and everyone in between. This is our favorite stop on the way to watch a UT game, go Lady Vols!!!
