This place is very lively. The inside looks like a Mexican pueblo which is inviting. I went here on my lunch and received excellent service by a young lady with short brown hair (forgot to ask her name), my order was done in less than 10 minutes which was impressive. I got 3 shrimp tacos, Jamaica water, and chips and salsa. The tacos were superb, very tasty and the shrimp was cooked perfectly. The chips were light and crispy! And the salsa was flavorful but not very spicy. I would have enjoyed more ingredients in the salsa and less sugar in the jamaica but that’s my preference. This place is great!
Our new favorite Mexican place! The two guys working today were great. So nice and polite! The steak was so good and my husband loved the burrito loco. We Will be back! Prices we're super reasonable too.
Their Margaritas are delicious, I had taco takeout and the food was pretty good.
I visited this place close to closing time and did not feel like I was being rushed out.
If you're a big fan of chips and salsa, the chips here are very authentic and homemade.
For a local spot it has my vote as a must go place for lunch or dinner.
Went for their taco Tuesday special. My children and I got chicken and my husband got beef. Their special is $1 tacos on Monday and Tuesday. They are pretty big and filling and taste great! Their chips & salsa are incredible too as is their rice. I would recommend this place to anyone! Their regular menu price is very reasonable as well. Don't be put off by the parking as it is limited. I'm really hoping this place stays open as we will be regulars!
We love coming here. The food is amazing & the staff is great.
Updating my review:
We have been coming here for awhile... we love supporting small businesses. Ever since they remodeled the place they started to charge for salsa **if you ask for an extra one** or if you want lime with your tacos they charge you for them. If you order to go they give you chips and salsa..but now the salsa is in a super small container that only feeds one person.
