First off the waiters were nice, great and always making sure we were doing well, and helping us with our refills. Very super nice, they made the experience well worth. For the food, the appetizers were very good, especially the Fiesta Platter. The chicken wings served was well seasoned and the quesadillas were a standout for me. Definitely a must if you have a crowd of 2-4 people who are hungry! The Carne Asada they gave out was HUGE. We loved it, and it was seasoned well, would definitely order that again whenever I visit. The Fajita Burrito was huge as well, stuffed with steak, rice and more cheese, it was a delicious and flavorful fight to go against when taking that burrito on. The fajitas sizzling at the bottom was really good too, great to get the vegetables in! As for the area, the place looked nice, giving a traditional late night vibe that makes you feel welcomed when entering in. Would come back! Loved everything about it.

I wasn't super hungry so we got chips and salsa and guacamole to share and my friend got the chicken fajita. The salsa comes with two different salsa options, both were a bit spicy. The guacamole was classic and came out with a cute serving spoon. They had lots of food options but it's a bit more expensive than most Mexican spots in the city. I think my friend was a little disappointed that there was an up charge to add vegetables to her fajita and the portion wasn't as big as she thought it might for a $20 plate, but it tasted good. Super nice service and cute on the inside. They have a back patio that's very big and heated. Street parking.

I asked the waiter if they had a fish specialty or a bone-in fish and he said yes and pointed at something on the menu and I said "bone in? He said yas.. i said "okay" this is what came out definitely not bone in, definitely not a specialty, definitely NOT a filling dinner...... Wifey had the Fajitas Carretas, which is her norm at ALL Mexican restaurants..... and what she got was half the size of all other Mexican restaurants, guessnits the location. Higher class clientele, higher prices, lower portions. I forgot what taco trio our gueat had but it was equally some food truck street taco plate. No joke our dinner felt like what shoulda been a lunch meal for a dieter. I wish i could say something nice about yheplace, like the drinks were on point, or service top notch, but we don't drink outside of home and well the language barrier was huge here. Decore & Paintings on the wall were nice. Sadly a one and done for this family.

Recently had the choriqueso too which was insanely good. Plus, free chips and salsa (in individual serving dishes!) which not everyone does anymore and the salsa is fantastic!

I usually end up parking on the street right around the restaurant. The restaurant is casual, yet nicely decorated. The wood accents bring a homey feel to the space, while still emphasizing Mexican culture. After being seated with my friend, we were brought chips and salsa. The chips were warm and fresh, and the salsa was chunky and spicy. Our server was so friendly, and we had excellent service. I ordered the BBQ Chicken Quesadilla. It was delectable! The smoky flavor, tender and juicy chicken, and the nicely-sized portion made this an excellent meal. For dessert, we ordered the Churros. And wow!

We went the other night for dinner and were one of two people there, the staff was so kind and happy to help us, and accommodating. The inside of the restaurant was dim lighting, new tables, and awesome music playing creating quite a vibe. The price of the food however, did not reflect the price. This is where it starts becoming a toss up. It is known that the owner, a woman, works the drive through and is incredibly unpleasant and borderline rude. Very short with customers and you can tell they try to get over on absolutely everything often citing "prices for food are going up so are ours" - so the menus don't reflect proper prices. Additionally, if you add or edit your order they charge whatever they feel like, it always seems to be inconsistent. This is a pattern here so don't be surprised when your 2 taco platter, fajitas and two margaritas is 78 dollars before they ask for tip. In my opinion, you can find better Mexican for the price. The atmosphere inside also does not reflect such pricing, you are not waited on, it's a counter you pick up your stuff and buss your own plates. Should not be costing 78 dollars for dinner.

First of all, the chimi had wayyyyyyyyy too much queso on top. I couldn't eat even half because it was just too much, I also didn't care too much for the steak. The nachos were also just alright. I think it would have been better without the chicken. I don't think I would return if I was wanting Mexican food in St. Louis.
