I ordered the 2 birria taco plate and the nacho plate, and everything was really good. The birria tacos were very meaty and filling — definitely no skimping on portions. The nachos were just as good and loaded with flavor. Portions were generous, prices were great, and honestly good food at a good price is rare these days! The churros with ice cream were a crowd pleaser and the perfect way to end the meal. Customer service was also on point. I’ll definitely be back!
I knew it was going to be good after I opened to see my food! 😂 I added queso it's supposed to be chili only, but first time I came. Got beef enchiladas refried beans and rice. The chips and salsa taste handmade and fresh. Everything was really good! I plan on coming back!
I almost don’t want to share this hidden gem we discovered in Arlington—but I can’t justify gatekeeping a place this good. This charming spot has been around for over a decade, and I only wish we’d stumbled upon it sooner. The food is fantastic, the drinks are excellent, and the overall experience is one you’ll want to come back for
Service was great, no wait, food came out fast and delicious.. the salsa tasted home made and the cucumber lemonade hit the spot! I will definitely return and recommend.
The service here was great. They didn't have exactly what my husband wanted on the menu so they built it for him. Everything had great flavor. The margarita I had was a tad too fake limey, but overall really good for the price and was not weak. Definitely will be back.
