This is my second visit and I have to say, it's been great each time. Food is great! That eggplant seafood dish is amazing! Shrimp cocktail is one to go to from now on! And mariachis! This was Friday night.

I have never actually ate here. Have ordered to go many times. I have never been disappointed. The food is always good. Usually doesn't take long for orders. Highly recommend their tacos. I like that they add more than onions and cilantro.
