We have not tried this place before because they went through a period of being open and closed, but this place is phenomenal. Hands down this is the best Mexican food in Roanoke. Everything was super fresh and delicious! Margarita on the rocks was outstanding also!

Their food is almost as good as el rodeo on brambleton. My only complaint is they are a bit slow on my refills, some of us are there to day drink on a budget, but maybe im just a pendejo
