I ordered the cheese enchiladas and they were so delicious, also I got rice with queso added into it. Our server was very very nice, I can’t remember his name, but he was very attentive and caring. The restaurant and bathrooms were very clean and well taken care of. We came on karaoke night and watched all kinds of people sing and dance. It was ever fun and I would 100% recommend this restaurant to anyone in Shelbyville who likes mexican. Will be coming back!!!
