Great salsa. The chicken tampiqueña was delicious. My parents enjoyed the divorciado (Chile verde and Chile rojo). This has become a place to come when we visit El Paso.

Food and staff are great! The dirty restroom smell slaps you in the face as soon as you walk in. I had to cover my face while picking up my to go order. The young lady that helped me was very polite and apologetic. I really felt bad complaining to her, but the owners desperately need to have a professional sanitation company to come and remedy the putrid smell. I will never be returning. This is really unacceptable.

This is one of the most horrible Mexican food restaurants in our area. Service super slow. Host is incredibly rude, on her phone. Food took very long to be served. Missing items on our order. Area by kitchen smells like pee. Never again. To many Mexican food restaurants in our area that are so much better.

Used to like this place, but they decided to host Gregg Abott, and idk how I feel about eating there anymore and supporting this business.

I eat here often and it’s usually good, but some days are better than others. It’s traditional El Paso style Mexican food. Their house made red enchilada sauce is great as is their salsa. They also have a nice variety of daily alcoholic beverage specials. They seem to have a revolving door of young inexperienced servers, so don’t expect much in the way of service, but it’s reasonably priced, and the portions are generous. My wife and I often share the combo dos and it’s plenty of food for the two of us.

They have a new menu with some very interesting additions. I tried charro beans with chorizo and a side chili relleno which was delicious. I’ve eaten here more than 10 times and they do know how to cook Mexican. Service sometimes is spotty (slow) but not bad.
