I have been to so many Mexican restaurants in my life but this one is by far the best ever! It's very difficult to find a good Mexican restaurant with amazing seafood dishes. This one is the best by far anywhere in Texas!! Highly recommend.

Looking for a place a place with authentic Tex-Mex food. Margaritas and Cantarito were delicious served by our attentive bartender Melissa. The carne asada & chicken tacos on the combo plates were tasty and tacos were loaded. We asked for a spicy salsa aside from green and red salsa and it was pleasantly hot. The cuatro leches cake was amazing and one of the best I’ve had. Generous portions, reasonably priced and great staff. Will definitely come back when in town.

My family ate here for dinner on a Friday night. We ordered the mixed fajitas, spinach and chick quesadillas, and pastor street tacos. They were delicious. The service was great. Each staff member was attentive and kind. I like that there are lots of windows and natural lighting too. Overall solid experience.
