Chicken enchilada with half green half red sauce
Measha B.

Amazing food and service as always! This family owned business is such a chill, welcoming, family friendly environment. The food is always hot, fresh, straight from the grill or bbq and seasoned to perfection! The quality and customer service is consistent and always fantastic! Try it and TRY EVERYTHING!

The food was good very authentic everything was cooked great just not popping with flavor wide variety on the menu but was a little on the pricey side for most things the alcoholic drinks were really good and freshly made from scratch the aqua Fresca was ok definitely not the best I've ever had I'd maybe come here again if someone invited me but most likely wouldn't go out of my way to eat here and wouldn't find myself craving their food

Carne Asada

Wow! Great find. We wanted Mexican food and found this place by chance. If you LOVE seafood, come to this place. Giant shrimp dishes, ceviche, oyster and fried tilapia! They also have margaritas and other fun cocktails. Service was super friendly. Ambience was family friendly. Place was clean. We ordered: Fried Tilapia - crispy and fresh. Perfectly salted. The rice was good! Carne Asada Plate - comes with beans and rice, and freshly roasted peppers and green onions. The carne was grilled and seasoned to perfection!! Would definitely come back if we're in the area. Authentic Mexican food!

Must try! The food is amazing, they are know for their seafood so that's a must. I always order the shrimp tacos, they are delicious! The molcajete was very tasty. I also love the ceviche de mango. Service is a bit slow but they try their best, they're always busy. They are very friendly and welcoming here. The restaurant is a little rough looking but its decently clean and comfortable.

Finally I had a chance to check it out. I've seen banners and signs going towards work around forever but I ignored the literal signs. Lol.Well I'm glad I finally stopped in. It was a great date nite. There was a little wait but that was just a sign that people like to eat here! The drink was awesome too. I ordered the cantarita. Yummmm, I'm definitely going back again. Dinner was over $100 so Italy be awhile but we will go again

I went to this place and the food didn't disappoint. I got the fish tacos and my family got other foods and everything was very delicious. The serving sizes are good the flavor waters are good too. I like that there's booth and regular tables. Our server was amazing she was friendly, attentive, she kept coming back asking if we were ok or we needed anything else. At the end of our dinner I was very satisfied, the only thing I can mention as negative is the music was a little too loud I was having a hard time listening to the conversation in our table due to the music.

First time here, we were celebrating my mother n laws birthday. Nothing but good things about this place. Nice ambience, delicious seafood options and great customer service. They were really accommodating to our 12 member party. They played bday music, brought out plates for our cake. Very nice people, we will definitely be back.

First off, we found out about this restaurant through social media. We knew eventually we'd want to…read moretry it. Luckily, we were by the mall and made the VERY short 10-ish minute drive. Worth it! Walked into a very quiet, but colorful restaurant with only one other patron inside. The employees were so nice. We were told to pick anywhere, we were brought menus and instantly asked if we'd like anything to drink or if we wanted to look at the menu first... We asked for suggestions and the waitress offered the types of drinks they have. She brought us chips and salsa. The chips were homemade with a perfect crunch. The salsa was fresh, chunky and not spicy. The pepino cone limo aqua Fresca was the best aqua Fresca I've EVER had. Not too sweet at all and was SO REFRESHING. We also ordered an horchata and I was told that was just as good. The food... Where to start. We ordered an empanada and some quedabirria tacos. The empanada was HUGE, deliciously filling with fresh ingredients. It had great flavor. The quesabirria tacos were probably the best we've had. You order the amount you want. They are 5.99 each and oh so delicious. The meat tasted SO FRESH and flavorful. The creamy jalapeño salsa had a NICE kick to it. All meals come with radish and pickled onions as garnish, but eating them with the meal made it even more refreshing and delicious. They need more than one location, but until then we will be back! (Luckily, I heard they do catering.)

Cool ambiance and good service…read more Ordered a couple of wet burritos to go; chicken and chile verde. Wife liked her burrito but felt that chicken was a little dry. My burrito was pretty good so we will need to come back to dine in and try some other items. Overall 4 stars.

La Morenita - Shrimp enchiladas, with no sauce, only cheese and sour cream on top, per request. Rice and beans on side.

I come here pretty often, and it's always a solid choice for Mexican food in town. The food is…read moreconsistently good, the drinks are solid, and they easily have the best chips and salsa around. Service is always friendly and reliable, which keeps me coming back. My only real recommendation is to avoid sitting in the bar area if you're in a hurry. Service there tends to move a lot slower, so it can take a while to get your order in and get your food. The restaurant itself is a little run down, and the bathrooms could definitely use some attention, but the bar and outside area is decorated nicely and has a good atmosphere overall. All in all, it's a great local spot and one I keep going back to.

Unfortunately, this was a really disheartening experience…read more We waited over an hour for our food, and when it finally came out there was an issue with the size of the menudo bowl that had been offered to us. Instead of trying to resolve the situation or make it right, the manager, Noah, became argumentative and tried to debate what had been said rather than listen to the customer. After waiting that long, the last thing anyone expects is to feel like they have to argue just to be heard. What made it more disappointing was the lack of willingness to fix the issue or offer a solution. We came in hoping for a good meal and left feeling frustrated and unheard. It's sad because good service could have easily turned this into a positive experience. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case here. At the end of it he realized and came back and finally apologized.

Great traditional Mexican food. This place never disappoints. I started with the whiskey smash,…read morewhich was a refreshing variation of almost a margarita. The complimentary chips along with their salsa and beans paired amazingly well. I proceeded to get the choose three build your own combo with a beef taquito(pictured), green chicken enchilada, and a chicken burrito. The beef taquito was first of all huge, the biggest one that I have ever seen. It came with plenty of toppings including guacamole, sour cream, cheese, cabbage, and tomatoes. The burrito was decent, definetely could have used at least some more salsa, ended up being a filler on my plate. I saved the best for last, the classic enchilada was smothered in a delicious salsa that I dipped my other two items into. If you want to try out different things and get a good amount of food for your money, you can't go wrong with the build your own combo, especially from this establishment. Apart from the food, the service exceeded my expectations and it is perfect for your next casual dining experience.

Gave them one more shot for a taco salad... and they blew it again. You'd think a taco salad would…read morebe a simple win, but nope. I asked for grilled chicken and got stewed chicken with absolutely zero flavor. They said it came with guacamole and sour cream--neither were anywhere to be found. The "salad" was basically lettuce, pico, and whole beans with a super tiny portion overall. I added bell peppers and onions, maybe five pieces total, and they hit me with a $6 upcharge. Would've been nice to know that before so I could've said no thanks. Final price for this subpar salad? $25. I actually had to go back just to show them. The bar manager, Hamad (spelling), tried to help by adding more chicken and then told me the sour cream and guac were "under the shell." Really? Who hides condiments under the shell? Total waste of time and money. I'm done. No more chances.
