I was really curious about this particular restaurant. I always see many different locations all…read moreover the coast. For some reason, this particular restaurant when I drive by it seems busy? Please refer to the website for details. A friend of mine recommended this particular restaurant. She mentioned that she would go with her husband here on many occasions. They never had a bad experience. She insisted that we join them. I gladly accepted. This particular restaurant is located in north Biloxi area in the Cedar Lake area. They have a large parking lot since it is located in a large shopping center. They do not have front handicap parking. However, the large parking lot has plenty of parking and handicap parking spots near the front of the restaurant. As you walk in, you are welcome to friendly staff and lighting is a little bit dimmer than most. Makes feel with warm atmosphere. Plenty of tables and booths. With a big full bar that accommodates back. Drink responsibly. We ask for a booth and kindly walked us to back booth. The seats are comfortable with padding on back and bottom. The tables are large and comfortable. They are hard wooden seats with custom padding on the bottom and hardwood back. Looks great and can accommodate up to large parties. I recommend calling ahead to make sure that they can accommodate you for that day. If you do want to dine in. You can always call ahead to place an order to go. As we sat down, they provided us with complimentary chips and salsa. The chips are thin, light, and crispy. Started out with a horchata to drink. ( is a name given to various beverages that are generally plant-based but sometimes contain milk. In Spain, it is made with soaked, ground, and sweetened tiger nuts. In Mexico it is made with rice, cinnamon and other ingredients and it is well known as a type of Mexican agua fresca.) While we ordered the Molcajete (Fajitas) - Steak, chicken, and shrimp, with cactus, poblano peppers, onions and tomatoes. Served in a hot Mexican mortar stone. Combo E - One beef taco, one chile relleno, one tamal, rice and beans. And rounded out with the Shrimp Enchilada Dinner- Two shrimp enchiladas served with rice and beans. They also mentioned that they offer free cup of soup (bean) for those who order a dish. As we were waiting. We thought we give it a try. I was warned not to get full off chips and salsa, especially the soup. Our meal has not arrived yet. The chips and salsa especially the soup is excellent. Shortly our dinner arrived. The smell was amazing and looked fantastic! All the food was delicious! They were so right. Our waitress asked us if we liked to get anything else or dessert. Are you kidding? Dessert, I wish. Especially more room. So much delicious food we had to take it home. It felt like we failed. So much delicious food. Be prepared to eat a lot of wonderful food! The staff will make you feel at home. Military discount available. I noticed a free Wi-Fi with password protected. May want to reach out for assistance.

I'm kinda hooked and will be on this food fixation for awhile. With the tacos I also got some beans and rice which was also great quality. Tasty. Texture spot on. Last thing that I got was the chips and salsa. Which of course I added a side of queso dip to. All perfect. Chips crunchy. Cheese smooth and creamy. The salsa was my star of this dinner show. She had beauty. She had grace. But them spices will kick you in the face. And I have to shout out to the gentleman that served me my food. He was so sweet and polite. His calling me Senorita and giving me a delicious meal will have me tipping too much every time. lol. I should have gotten his name but he was a great food service person. I will be back a lot.

This is your spot. It's quick, it's simple, and somehow it hits better than it has any right to. Folks complain but that's like going to a dive bar and asking for a wine list. They're back there working with what looks like half a kitchen and a prayer... and still putting out solid food. That alone deserves a little respect. And knowing it feeds the men and women in uniform including folks like my daughter in the Air Force that gives it a little extra shine. It ain't perfect. It ain't polished. But it's real and sometimes that's exactly what you're hungry for.

The steak tacos are $5 a piece and look like taco bell soft tacos with some grey steak shoved in. There was 5 chips in the large guacamole salad. The fact that this was $48 is LUDICROUS.

They offer lunch specials daily until 3:00, but I tried the vegetable fajitas off the regular menu. The food was well seasoned and came out quickly. I noticed that kids eat free on Sundays and they have specials on the margaritas. My total for all of this food before tip was less than $18. I have enough left over for lunch tomorrow so I think it was a good deal. The service was great and I will definitely be back.

Everything tasted fresh and hit the spot. Nothing crazy, just a solid taco. They've got a drive-thru which is super convenient. The guy on the intercom mentioned they have a salsa bar inside too, so I might go in next time and check that out. Tacos were a little under $4 each, which seems pretty fair for what you get. Overall, good experience. I'd come back. Now I'm just wondering if they have any specials.
