Had the pleasure of eating here on a Friday evening, and I had a wonderful experience! Our server Hector was an absolute delight and was attentive and quite enjoyable. All of the choices were delicious and filling for the size. We did share and try more dishes this way. I would definitely recommend this Mexican restaurant for anyone looking for reasonable prices and a wonderful atmosphere.

My recent visit to this Mexican restaurant was nothing short of exceptional. The authenticity of the food immediately transported me back to the flavors of home. We tried both the birria and champiñones tacos, each crafted with such care and bursting with flavor. The complimentary chips and salsa served upon arrival were a welcoming touch, embodying the warmth of true Mexican hospitality. Each bite was a testament to the love and dedication the kitchen staff put into their work, and the service was equally impressive. Our server was attentive, knowledgeable, and added to the overall wonderful experience. The music selection was also perfectly in tune with the ambiance, enhancing the authenticity of the setting. I highly recommend this place to anyone in search of genuine Mexican flavors delivered with impeccable service.

Went there on Saturday night.. it was easy to get a table and the atmosphere was nice too. We ordered enchilada, Quesadilla, fish tacos, freshly made guacamole with chips (the best I have tasted so far). The service was great and food was delicious. We made some modifications with our order, and they followed the instructions so really happy with place. Would surely recommend the place.

We had dinner here for the first time tonight and were blown away. We ordered the chicken flautas and birria tacos and both were delicious. The portions were very generous and a great value for money. Everything was seasoned perfectly and plated beautifully. Service was also excellent. We will definitely be back

The food was delicious. I ordered some carnitas tacos and a huarache of chorizo that was very large and very very tasty. I highly recommend them. I also recommend the drinks. I ordered a large mango mezcalita. The food is very well seasoned, the atmosphere is very cool, and the service is excellent. I ordered so much food that I forgot to take pictures, but here are two. I also ordered a coffee and a tres leches cake.

It sort of felt like I was in Mexico. I like the look of the restaurant and the music was on par to making me feel like I was in Mexico. The food was really tasty too and well portioned. Pricing is pretty standard as I paid $18 for 3 tacos and they were pretty authentic. If you ask, you can get complimentary chicharrones de harina. The sauces are all spicy, so beware! What would really make this place better is if they had live Mexican music.

Absolutely loved it here! The food was delicious, the service was great, and the vibes were immaculate! The live music was unexpected, but the performers were amazing and made the experience so much better! Will definitely be returning!!
