    Located at the corner of Mesquite Street and Front St, you'll have to look for parking along Front St; there's a few places in the rear. Plenty of seating inside and out; bright lighting, simple decor with polished concrete floors. Ingrid was our server; she was friendly and efficient; anticipating our needs. All of the staff seemed happy to be there. The chips were crispy and perfectly seasoned! The salsa was tasty; not too spicy. We split the appetizer sampler, which was plenty for two people. Everything was tasty and hot. Glad to see they had a lunch menu; we'll have to come back.

    New spot in Arlington, however I was not impressed with the entrees we ordered. Nothing was very flavorful. Chips and salsa were okay. Very friendly and attentive staff. Nice decor as well as patio area. Maybe I will try again later.

    Excellent skinny margarita, good happy hour specials, the tacos de papas were surprising and tasty. I'm happy to see a tex mex spot move in to front street, so far I'm impressed with them.

    Fish taco with minimal fish. Also poorly seasoned

    Environment and location were good. Menu had options that all looked good. Fish tacos had little fish, which I could over look and it had any seasoning or even a salsa on it. Same with the shrimp tacos. Shrimp and slaw had no seasoning. Unfortunately this place is gonna need to do a lot better in the kitchen to stick around. Not hating, but hope this getting seen by someone who can make a change in the store so it last.

    Appetizing bites!

    This has always been our go to place when we want Tex-Mex without going to a chain restaurant. The…read moreservice is always great from being acknowledged when entering to making sure you get everything you want. Our niece can to visit for a day and she agreed to join us to eat even though she says where she lives there is tons of Mexican restaurants. She was so impressed with the food, saying it the best Tex-Mex she's had. The place is fairly small with a separate bar area so the atmosphere is very easy to relax and talk while eating plus visit. Check this lace out, guaranteed you won't be disappointed!

    This Mexican hole in the wall appears tiny from the outside. The parking lot in this mini-mall was…read moresmall, but I didn't have any trouble finding a spot. The restaurant reveals itself to be larger once you're inside. It's a cozy dining experience and I liked the cluttered decor of Mexican tchotchkes and liquor bottles. The owners were very kind to reserve tables for our large group and arrange for us all to pay separately. I tried the cheese enchiladas and they were very filling - they came with Spanish rice and refried beans on the side. I was tempted by the taco salad... some fellow diners ordered it and they were serving size was enormous! Most dishes here seemed well suited to having enough leftovers for the next day.
