Was there last Friday for a funeral luncheon. Did taco bar. Food was very good. Margaritas were also yummy. They had pinatas up from Cinco .my daughter inquired where they got them from as one was a corona bottle. Unfortunately they didn't understand her, little bit of a language barrier and that was ok. As we were leaving one of the guys comes running out and asked her to go back in and take one. So thoughtful, they may not have understood her but they knew she wanted one.

Very pleased with my lunch here. The facility is extremely clean and well kept. The staff is welcoming and friendly. The service is top notch. Drinks and chips were very promptly served. Entrees were lightning fast piping hot and obviously freshly prepared. I had steak a la Mexicano and wife had carnitas. All was prepared very authentic and beyond delicious. So much so we took home our leftovers. Which we rarely do. We will be back. Thanks to the staff.

The service was amazing. They made flour tortilla chips for my wife because her mouth was sore from the dentist. The food was excellent, especially the salsa and guacamole, but the carnitas and mixed fajitas were also delicious. We will be back.

Wonderful restaurant, excellent food, fast friendly service. We ate at lunchtime on a Friday and both had delicious chimichangas. Atmosphere was great, very clean & well maintained. We will definitely be back to explore more on the menu.

We went on a random Sunday evening, and it was delicious. Lots of food, great service, nice atmosphere. We got fajitas and tacos and they were both nice and steaming hot, and the table chips are nice and crisp exactly the way I like them. Our server was very polite too!
