OMG, this place is fantastic! I went here to take myself out for a little celebratory lunch and boy, am I glad I chose this wonderful restaurant! The food was delicious and the service was spectacular. I was greeted immediately and also assured that I could take my time perusing the menu. I ordered two tacos (lunch special brisket and carnitas) and I was wowed with the deliciousness. I also enjoyed a margarita and some yummy chips and salsa and guacamole. Because I ordered two tacos, I was gifted a free side of rice and that was so very tasty, too. I will definitely eat here again, next time with friends. :-)
Happy hour menu is worth the visit. The vibes and decor is even more worth the visit. During busy times they can get really loud so keep that in mind. Super cute and they give out punch cards, which is a huge plus for patronage!
I love this place. It’s alway such amazing service. The quality and consistency of the food is well worth the cost. Always love sitting in the back. They have heaters, the salsa is amazing and GF options.
The vibes at this place are incredible. The Mississippi street location has awesome outdoor seating, friendly staff and delicious tacos. I'd highly recommend the al pastor, the sauce was incredible. Heated outdoor spot was great for our dog companion
Great authentic Mexican self service Restaurant with good Music and an funky, traditional interior with limited seating but plenty of outside seating. The food was very tasty and fresh with plenty of sauces to choose from for added spice. Come hungry.
