Chicken Quesadilla with rice

Do not listen to the negative reviews i couldnt even find one negative thing to say. Ive been coming here since high school and all i can say is the food is amazing. Even if you dont dine in and order take out they give you a huge portion of chips and salsa. The service is always great even with just one worker serving. All im gonna say is if you get a chicken quesadilla you will be more than full and very happy!

Salsa ans chips
Jen C.

Very disappointed! I ordered Chicken Floutas, and I told the gentleman on the phone I wanted a Flouta plate, which online it said comes with rice, beans, and salad. Then I ordered a side of Salsa and chips. I was not charged for the salsa and chips, so I assumed it was complimentary. I still tipped. When I got home, I tried my salsa and chips, and it was okay, but the salsa was too sweet. I had never eaten a sweet salsa before, and I could not eat more than four chips because the sweetness was not enjoyable. When I looked into the bag, I saw my 4 Chicken floutas, but no rice, beans, or salad. I was disappointed! I now assume it wasn't ready, and they gave me the salsa and chips for free. I'm not sure, but now I know if I ever come back, I need to speak more therally about my orders. The chicken floutas tasted good on the outside, but the chicken was flavorless. So I do not recommend getting anything with chicken because it seems to be their standard chicken style.

Rice and black beans

Our large group came for dinner. The staff are so nice and helpful although the place can use a little updating. For apps we ordered the jalapeño poppers, potato skins and guacamole with chips. My fave were the potato skins because they were loaded with cheese. Nice gooey cheese. The poppers were good but seemed to me like they're frozen from Sam's. I still liked them tho. The guacamole was good and there was hardly anything left for the grown ups after the kids tore through it. I ordered the enchiladas verde. They were really good and spicy. I was surprised to get four enchiladas stuffed with chicken as a meal. Needless to say, plenty of food. It came with yellow rice and back beans which were delicious. Several people got the steak burritos and steak quesadillas--they were on point, I actually liked them better than my own dinner. It's a must have. My son said they were the best ever and he is not kidding. We ordered margaritas and they were on the weak side fyi. I'll take a star for that. Again the service is amazing. Super sweet people.

Nachos Ala Cilantro
Dana L.

An obligatory no-frills dinner stop whenever we're near Poughkeepsie! As always, the portions were huge, servers kept the chips and salsa flowing, and food was delicious! We had the nachos, chicken fajitas, and steak chimichanga and it was more than enough food for a hungry party of four. The steak is absolutely delicious, perfectly seasoned and cooked and a must-try! We'll be back soon, and definitely stop by if you're in the area.

Chicken and steak soft tacos
Zoha M.

My husband picked up food and it seemed very promising, but sadly I was very disappointed! The chicken in all the dishes we ordered (quesadillas, soft tacos, enchilada) was merely boiled with salt and completely bland. There was absolutely no seasoning and you can see the bland white chicken in the photos. For a Mexican restaurant, I was definitely expecting more flavor. The enchilada was covered in a specialty poblano sauce but it was a miss for us- it has a spicy kick but it was sweet with an odd flavor. The guacamole was another miss for me, because of the jelly consistency and lack of flavor -perhaps it's better when you dine in. The rice and beans were good! But I wouldn't try this place again sadly!

Sopa de elote y rajas. Sweet & spicy!
Stefan H.

Storefront restaurant with authentic Mexican food! Pretty much like eating at a local restaurant in Mexico! Family owned and run, come for the good food, portions, and prices! Had the Mole Poblano enchiladas and they were excellent! Rice and beans was awesome as well! Nice to get whole beans rather than the usual refried beans paste! Both fishers were subtly sweet and spicy! Looking forward to going back!

The food has authentic Mexican flavors, and it's a hit each time. Try the Posole. It's a dish we first tried in Acapulco, Guerrero, and they do it well here.

The salsa and guacamole come out of a jar. That about sums it up. Ugh. Worst Mexican restaurant I've ever been to. Try maya cafe instead.

We stopped by Wood Fired AMA Kitchen & Bar after a fun day of apple picking nearby, and it turned…read moreout to be a great choice. The staff was warm and welcoming, and they went out of their way to accommodate our large group of eleven, which was much appreciated. I was admittedly a little distracted watching my New York Yankees get mollywhopped by the Blue Jays on TV, so I forgot to snap a picture of the bread strips served with marinara sauce. But they were a pleasant surprise ; warm, soft, and perfect for dipping into that flavorful sauce. For my main dish, I ordered the L'Americano burger. It wasn't the best burger I've ever had, but it was still really enjoyable and satisfying. The fries on the side were classic and hit the spot. All in all, I had a really good time here. Between the friendly service, solid food, and relaxed atmosphere, I'd definitely come back the next time I'm in the area.

A wonderful experience. Delicious food. My bolognese pasta…read morewas fantastic! The sauce was flavorful and filled with meat. My uncle's spaghetti was ok. The sauce was too sweet for me. I sampled the salad my uncle had ordered and that was wonderful! The greens were good and the lemon dressing was so light and perfect. My aunt had the seafood pasta, and she always raves about it. The desserts were the perfect ending as well. Overall it all delivered well. Next time I'd like to try the pizza. The interior was pretty cool. I loved the lighting, bar area, and black ceiling. The whole ambiance was put together with tall windows and beautiful, simple curtains. The staff was fantastic. They were so friendly and worked hard. If we encountered a problem it was taking care of. Advice: Do not have employees/owners/ staff smoke out front. When we pulled in the same older gentleman was smoking out front, then once while we were eating and then again as we pulled away. We walked in behind him and the smoke smell was very just present.
