    This place has got to be one of the best fancier places to eat! The service was very attentive and the food came out very wonderful. I would definitely come here again on special occasions!

    The service was great! Our waiter, Jose, was friendly and attentive. The food, drinks and even desserts were delicious! I would definitely recommend giving this place a try the next time you're craving Mexican food.

    The food here is delicious, I hated beans before I tried this place & now I love them! The margaritas are AMAZING, very hard to find a good place with frozen margaritas.

    If your looking for a chill relaxed spot with a open concept this is the place. The service was attentive and very helpful. But the really good was the parrillada mixta. You could pick 1,2 or 3 proteins. We had the fajita, chicken and sausage also came with quesadillas. The sides included charro beans, nopales, rice, lettuce, avocado and tortillas. We also tried the enchiladas suizas which were extra cheesy and not spicy. The enchiladas de mole and chicken were ok. The mole sauce was not my favorite felt it lacked some spice. The caldo de res was just ok. The hidden surprise is the little pan dulce showcased in the center. After our meal we asked for sweet bread , the waiter went out of his way to have it heated up for us which made it so much better. If your looking for a chill night out out with mixed drinks and Mexican food this is your spot! PS they have different flavored margaritas and the size is the big glass (copa) if your not intrigued with this review, at least go try their happy hour and they're many flavored margaritas!

    Saw the #1 ranking in Yelp and stopped in to eat for the first time. A bit out of the way in a…read morestrip mall. We were seated within a few minutes. Staff were very friendly and the atmosphere was lively. Started with the free tortilla chips and salsa. Salsa was served warm with very good flavor and a little kick to it. Ordered the Guacamole as well. Was very good with a blend of avocado, veggies and lime juice. I ordered the Buena Vida Pack, a delicious sampler. I finished every bite. My companion ordered the Governador Tacos and really enjoyed it. Total bill for two with beverage was ~$40. Be advised that they do not have alcoholic beverages. I definitely recommend.

    Pro #1: Meat is sooooooo tender. I wish it had more seasoning ... even if it was salt nonetheless…read moreit was good! Con #1: This restaurant is not environmentally conscious. Other than the meal, everything is served on styrofoam, utensils are plastic and cups are bad fast food plastic qualify. Con # 2: I asked the waitress if they had unsweet tea and pink packet sweetener. I asked about the pink packets 3 times and she said yes. She came back with yellow packets. I asked if they had pink packets and she said no. No to her. Con # 3: There are no free refills. I ordered two unsweet teas and the girl brought me two unsweet teas with yellow packets. So I asked for a sweet teas. They charged me for three Aqua Frescas. Charged $15. Hell no. Meh. Pass on a second visit.

    7/10 Flautas de papa 9/10 avocado chilaquiles…read more 7/10 chorizo chilaquiles 5/10 beans A coworker who works in the area recommended this place. I'm a huge migas fan and never thought to try chilaquiles. This place did not disappoint. I added eggs, chorizo and avocado with half green and half red sauce. I was surprised to get each adding in an individual stack. I managed to get my egg yolk over the avocado and chorizo. The food was really good, just not what I expected. The flautas de papa were a great buy. Instead of using a corn or flour tortilla to mop up my plate, I was able to use the flauta and with the papa in it, they were like little sponges soaking up all the leftovers

My favorite is the Tacos Llorarás (you will cry taco) which features a handmade corn tortillas stuffed with a chile relleno made of jalapeño and cream cheese, plus a flavorful beef birria. Add your garnish and salsa of choice, and if the heat of the chile doesn't make you cry, you will eventually cry if you cannot return soon. It's that good! Drinks are either Jamaica (aguas frescas style). This location is right across the road from the Sam's Club on South Jackson Road. There is additional parking in the back. Family friendly.

    Okaaaay McAllen I see you! I came out here on a Friday night around 8pm, the place was lively, good…read moremusic on the speakers and it instantly felt like the weekend. With no reservation, I was asked to kindly take a seat in the small waiting area to clear a table. I was instantly greeted with a friendly smile and felt welcomed. I was seated within 5 minutes. I had a late lunch and wasn't super hungry. I couldn't pass up the refried beans and chips since they were wafting in my vicinity, no regrets though, the chips were on the lighter side (not super hard like a tostada) and crispy and you could taste the manteca in the beans which made me smile. Según, I had no intention on eating but I couldn't pass up the aguachile as it came to my table. Twas delightful! The only regret I had at that point was not bringing my appetite. Onto the drinks. Wanted to start off "light" and the Paloma was perfect and refreshing. Not too much on the squirt side, not amargoso (bitter) and the right amount of tequila. During the night they abruptly announced that they were running a 2 for 1 shot special along with LMFAO's "Shots" song and you almost feel obliged to order (marketing genius). I was feeling adventurous and decided not to ask what each shot entailed, but rather to go based off the name. I went with the Perla Negra and for the presentation itself it was worth ordering. All in all, this place is a MUST for your Friday night warm up. Como dice terminator: I'll be back.
