    Shrimp and chicken fajitas.

    Our favorite Mexican restaurant in Franklin. My wife had a combination meal and I had shrimp and chicken fajitas. Both w

    The $4.50 Margarita.
    Michael W.

    Franklin has quite a few Mexican restaurants for its size. Overall the Mexican restuarants across the entire south tend to be sub par. I stopped in here the other day and even though this was the first visit this one seems to be better than the norm. They are open for breakfast, lunch and dinner 7 days a week! Price are reasonable. I started with a margarita, and they have 3 sizes: $2.50 $3.50 and $4.50. I opted for the $4.50 and it was huge! Pretty good too. I noticed the beer menu and it was reasonable too. Domestic beer $2.25, and imports $2.50. They even had Bohemia which is harder to find than the cheapest Mexican beers at the same price. Most Mexican restaurants dont even serve Bohemia. (Bohemia is Mexican from Monterrey Mex) At the bar were 9 guys chatting away. I could tell from the accents most, if not all, were Mexican. There were also Mexican customers eating at tables. Most all other Mexican restaurants in Franklin have ZERO Mexican customers. Thats another good sign! I ordered a combo plate, #7 which was $7.49. It was average. Often combos offer the cheaper grades of food so next time I will try something better. Inside the relleno was white melted cheese that appeared it could have been from a can. If so I hate that. The cheese on the refrieds and enchilada appeared to be real. The enchilada was made with basic ground beef. Most any other thing inside would have been better. This restaurant should NOT be confused with another NC chain with several locations in NC and North GA. It goes by Mi Pueblo with an outline of a Pueblo style building. This is not that chain. I will be back and check out more menu options and update this as I do. For now I will give it a 4 star.

    Javier with my tacos.

    Listen to me Franklin! Listen to me Franklin! This is a Hidden Gem in your city. We were up here on business and decided to drop in and so glad that we did! Javier was our waiter and he explained a few line items from the menu and the selection was plentiful. I decided on a Texas margarita with a variety of tacos. Two of the tacos were al pastor and the other two were steak tacos (see picture). Rhonda had the Mexicano chicken burrito and it was fantastico!!! Dang, I wish I would have ordered that also because of the green sauce. The green sauce was amazing, matter of fact, it was the best green sauce that I've ever had from a Mexican restaurant. You simply have to go there and try it and then you will understand why I am raving about it so much. Don't let the strip mall location discourage you...very clean, hospitable and delicious food. Be sure to tell Javier that Mike sent you.

    Best Mexican food in Franklin. The service is great as well as the food. Pricing is right and they keep good hours year round.
