This is my husband’s and my favorite local restaurant. They have the BEST chips and salsa, both served warm. We have always enjoyed the entrees that we have ordered. Irving is an awesome waiter!

This restaurant has been here 17 years wish I had found it sooner. The food was good the people who worked there were very nice and accommodating. Nice atmosphere. Our server Irving was excellent.I recommend this restaurant.

Fave place in Arlington for Mex-Tex food. Very attentive staff. Delicious food if a bit pricey. Chips and salsa are always good as are the drinks. Fun, offbeat decor. Parking is a bit tight even though there's a sign directing overflow traffic to the grocery store across the street.
