If we could teach Mexican restaurants how to season their food, they would all improve 100% hear the taco enchilada had zero seasoning, leave and head to Msodt and of course, like a Old a Louisiana michigan Restaurant singin Hwy chacere not near as good as a representation of tech tech Texas it's only Jean this is my second time here and will probably be my last.

Tequila Margarita

Located in "downtown" Covington. It's fairly new but oh so good! Complimentary chips and salsa. The margaritas are delicious and strong, just how i like lol. i get the Jumbo Fajita Quesadilla w/ rice and it's delicious!! probably one of the best quesadillas i've ever had! my fav go to Mexican restaurant. i recommend!

Good food in an easy to get to location. The chimichanga was delicious. I would pass on the Tres Leche. Service was quick and friendly. Not many people on a Wednesday night but a lot seating for parties of all sizes.

Spicy salsa verde from the back.

At the Covington block party. Walking home and wanted a top shelf margarita on the rocks. Ordered chips and salsa. Asked for a little spicy green salsa "from the back"". Wow. Does not disappoint. Great salsa verde.

Fajita taco salad with shrimp and half and half margarita.

Never a bad meal! Always good! The jumbo shrimp burrito dish is excellent. The taco fajita salad with shrimp is divine. And the margaritas are always good!

It doesn't look like much when you first see it. But as soon as you walk in you feel a sense of authenticity. You can tell that all of the food is authentic and super fresh. My personal recommendation is the Fajita Enchilada. Really enjoyed the atmosphere that was provided for me as a customer. I WILL be going back for sure! -Grayson Jones- Local Food Critic

Amazing food amazing service ! And also this part of town was adorable ! Off street parking but it wasn't bad . There's a lot of cute shops and stuff in this area as well. Got cilantro jalapeño margaritas which were so goood! Then we had guacamole and queso and free chips and salsa . Everything was so good . Then we got the fajita taco salad , wish it was just a tad bigger but it was so yummy . We have gone to another Mexican restaurant in the area that was highly recommended and we much rather this place !

The food and drinks are amazing; however the staff surpasses for excellence. Traditional Mexican decor rounds out a great dinner event.

Okay, this is my fifth visit here in five months so it's safe to say I'm either a glutton for…read morepunishment or that this place is great. Fortunately, it's the later, by a wide margin. Why you ask? Simple, it's great. My reasons: 1) Every time we've been here the service has been great. Not good, great. We've taken the time to meet/talk to the serving staff and they all have been friendly, attentive, and really good at their jobs. We have also met the owners and they too are lovely people. 2) The setting, given that's it's in a small strip mall is great. They have a large patio, plenty of umbrellas as booths, and multiple water features including a water wall. Inside the restaurant is equally beautiful. This is not Chi-Chis or some place trying to faux up the setting. 3) The food is great. If you are looking for typical Americanized Mexican, Spanish, South American food, this is not your place. If you are instead looking for great food that is more interesting, this is the place. For example, tonight we had a chicharron that looked liked two of biggest fried slices of hog heaven you could hope for. It was amazing! We also had the chimichurri sauce which was slightly different from what we have had in the past but it too was awesome! We even asked for some to go to which they said of course. 3) The portion size of most of what we've had over the five visits have almost always fit the price while things such as the steak fajitas were on the generous side for 2026. Bonus, big bonus- They are very dog friendly so your four legged and well behaved dogs are more than welcome in their spacious outdoor patio. And since the tables (not the booths) are not tightly together it's a good place even for the truly big dogs! That about covers it. So bring your fur baby, have a drink (they have some nice concoctions ) and enjoy a restaurant that recreates so many things from one of the owner's youth. And if you can sit outside, you will enjoy it even more! As always, apologies for my usually long and hopefully epic review. Cheers and happy dining all!

Top notch dining in a hidden corner with true Mexican flavor and artisan tacos. I had the…read morecarnitas....excellent! My entire meal was delicious. Somebody is really cooking in this kitchen, you can taste the slow food, deep stocks paring with bright garnishes. Im delighted this place is in my neighborhood! The interior is super cool too, and the have outside dining. Music is Carlos Santana instrumental. Prices are average, an excellent value for the experience. My new favorite Mexican place.
