Great food, service and atmosphere

Nate LeGrand

Not good. Expected better but pretty generic cafeteria style fare. Would not recommend.

Wendell Crim

Wonderful salsa and chips, margaritas and chicken mole enchiladas.

Prince George

Burito chipotle had hardly had any chicken and too salty…

Our experience was significantly different than other reviews. The food was all a mushy slop disguised with a bunch of melted cheese over it. I'm convinced that the chili relleno was a boiled green bell pepper that was rolled in egg whites (no breaded, not fried, stuffed with cheddar cheese instead of Monterey). It was all weird, not typical Mexican food in really any way. Even the taco was a Midwest hardshell (why?).

The service was decent. Maybe it was just an off-day for the kitchen.

Literally the best salsa I have ever had. The food was delicious and the service was amazing.

Authentic, made-to-order Mexican food. I love chile rellenos and am often disappointed but not at this restaurant. I would give 10 stars if I could.

This place is my favorite Mexican restaurant! The salsa is to die 4, my favorite dish is called "no name" just try it, it's not on the menu and my second would be carne asada dinner plate and I get a big thing of salsa to go everytime

The dinner started off fine with great salsa and chips. But the house margarita is terrible (just some cheap margarita mix) and the dinner entrees were just ok. Then we got the bill and they added a big fee for using a credit card. We won’t be back again…

We eat at this place when we stop in town on our way through. I grew up with a similar restaurant so it is nostalgic for me. Good food. Love all the live plants inside.

I had the chicken enchiladas..and it wasn't my favourite...and I love enchiladas...but the chips and salsa were delicious.. they bring those out complimentary which was really nice. House made salsa..it was great. Beautiful setup. Very traditional. Just wasn't huge on the flavor of the enchiladas..
