Friendly staff, I got a blueberry margarita to go. It was huge, unfortunately I really didn’t taste a lot of tequila or really any liquor and it was a bit sweet. I didn’t try any food.

No wait at 6pm!The food is delicious. The only critique I have is for them to toast the tortillas. The salsa they serve with the chips when you sear is above average with a slight kick.We ordered the Papaya Sampler, it that was so gooooooud. We devoured it within minutes.This is a true Tex-Mex restaurant!My only regret is not getting a spicy cucumber margarita.We need one in Fort Worth.Tacos de alambre are very savory. The carne is grilled to perfection and the cheese, bell pepper, and sausage is the combo!We will be back!

This is my first time to this restaurant. I was greeted as soon as I came in. It's like they were happy I was there. That's always a good sign. Customer service is number one for any business that wants to stay in business. Food was very good. Lots of good quality ingredients here. I've got one gripe though. The iced tea was just about water. When I first got it I held it out to the light just to make sure it wasn't plain water. Tea is cheap. There's no reason to cheap out on it. It's got a huge markup on it so please make it double strength. I would not get it again. $3.50 for a glass of water is not good. Other than that, it was a very good dinner. Work on that tea guys!

First time I ate here the food was good, 2nd time it was good too. But the 3rd time I ate here was awful. I ate 2 tacos, then I got to the chicken taco and immediately it tasted sour, I spit it into my napkins. I rushed to the restroom to get the rest out of my mouth and I threw everything I had eaten up. I couldn't eat the rest of my food. I just left.

The first time I ate here was when I ordered their tres leche cake. I like their cake because it doesn’t have all the extra fruit on it. Ever since then, I would only come here when I had a taste for some tres leche cake. Never tried their food before till now! OMG!!! I’ve been missing out on some good Mexican food! Hard to find good authentic Mexican food around Arlington and with good service. We had ordered their beef and cheese enchiladas dinner and steak shrimp and sausage fajita. My husband had the shredded beef burrito! They did not disappoint! My craving was met! Thank you!

GREAT spot with outstanding food, fast friendly service, and great prices. We were hesitant when we say the location, as we are traveling from another state and the strip mall looked a bit "rustic", but we are SO GLAD we stepped inside!We had the Enchiladas Poblanas, street tacos, and queso. All of the food was served piping hot and was robust and flavorful. The salsa was fresh and spicy - we absolutely loved it. Horchata was wonderful, too.Can't wait to return on our next visit to Arlington and try additional things.

Dietary restrictions: Lots of options; staff was helpful in answering questions.

Parking: Tons of parking for the strip mall.
