Southern California Mexican food snob here. This is only 1 of 2 Mexican food places I will ever recommend in East Tennessee. I’ve been here at least 30 times in the past 2 years. I’ve also tried at least 15 other Mexican restaurants in East TN, they ALL suck except for Zalate and one other.

Only complaint is that it’s the first sit-down Mexican restaurant I’v ever been to that doesn’t provide complimentary chips and salsa.
This is one of those over-priced, trendy places with just "alright" food.

I ran in for a to-go lunch, and I was charged a "to-go" fee of 45 cents. Why? This is just asking your customers to not return.

On top of that, when placing my order, I asked the worker if chips & salsa comes with the meal. She said yes. Then I looked at my bill a minute later and saw a charge of $3.50 for it.

Chorizo quesadilla...
We went for a late lunch on Sunday and ordered a couple of margaritas, a beer and tacos and their chicken bowls. ALL of the food was super tasty (as always) and service was perfect! I enjoy taking my friends here because the food is always fresh and tasty and their drinks and service are stellar!
