    Not too shabby for a Mexican spot. Food was flavorful and hearty portions. Place was clean and the servers all seemed nice and attentive to their tables.

    We stopped in for lunch while in town visiting friends for a wedding. This place is really nice inside, lots of bright decor and art. Parking was a breeze and we were seated immediately. The service was good and really fast. I ordered a frozen strawberry margarita and it was pretty much just juice, there was very minimal tequila for the price tag of $17. Honestly, everything was a bit pricey. For food, I ordered the mango salmon and mashed potatoes. It was pretty good until about half way through I noticed a dead fly laying face up on my plate. It was pretty bad and the fly didn't just happen to land there it was in the sauce under the salmon. I let our server know and he let his manager know. Not one person apologized or even seemed to care that I had an entire dead fly in my food. The manager just said they'd send another one and it "may take a while". I ended up telling my server I didn't want it anymore and just don't worry about it. He didn't understand me and they still brought out a new plate. I was with a party of 9 and by the time it came out everyone was done eating. We asked to have it removed from the bill and they did remove it then. But we shouldn't have had to ask. Also, my meal price on the menu was $17 and on the receipt it was $19. So that was odd. Before I noticed the fly, my meal was good. But after that it was downhill. I hope things improve at this spot. Seems like it could be a nice place overall.

    Hardly any meat just little pieces, pathetic for the money

    First off the food is pretty good. The bartender Elizabeth is great. My warning is don't order to go because you get screwed. Thursday I ordered the carnitas to go, I was expecting chunks of pork, but what I got was little pieces and very little meat. The charro beans was more like soup than substance. I won't ever order on line or to go again. I'll order eat in and pack it up when its brought out.

    Dropped in with the family for lunch and had a great time. Parking was easy, quickly seated, and the food came out quick and to order.

    Had a craving for Mexican food and found this place on the square. They occupy two rooms but had everyone in just one of the rooms. Service was fast. Food was good, a little on the salty side. Chips and salsa were good.

    Credit is deserved when earned. I've been to this place several times and food has been consistently good. Ambiance - Mexican :) Customer Service - very friendly. If you are in this part of town, there aren't too many Mexican restaurants and this one is definitely worth trying. If you feel like altering the menu a bit, for a nominal price they will change to your liking. Just be nice to them and they will be extra nice to you.

    This will be the second time I have been here and the last time was a couple months ago and the food was really good. They have street parking and in Jackson, it is free for 2 hours and this was Sunday around 5 PM and parking was not a problem. They have a full bar and Draught beer thank goodness and you can get a 32 oz one .. yea!. They have a few domestics and of course Mexican beers. As with every Mexican restaurants, they make great margaritas. The have tables, booths and a bar that seats maybe 8-10 people. The chips they bring out are nice and crisp and light. Much better than many I have had at other places. I ordered a Molcajete, which has chicken, shrimp, grilled pork and steak and lots of other stuff served in a cool Volcano rock bowl. It also includes tortilla shells and a plate of beans and rice. It was huge and quite a bit for 14 dollars ... enough to share. I found it very tasty but some of the meat was grisly and actually had to spit some out into a napkin. I wish I could remember the cheese and meat cheese bowl as an appetizer. IT was awesome .. I added a messy picture of it... sorry... The service was great and the food was very good. I was a little concerned because some of the meat was grissly and took away from the overall experience. Overall it is a 3.5-4.0 because the quality for the price is very good. I will come again if I am in town.

    Two salsas and a small cheese dip. With the best chips around- thin and crispy!

    Standard Mexican fare with a sports bar kinda feel. The food is moderately priced and the portions are moderate as well. The highlight of the experience was the warm, thin, and deliciously crispy chips. Two kinds of salsa were also brought to the table. Neither were too spicy but both were flavorful. We also ordered a cheese dip, which my son loved! We fed the family of 5 for about $65 (3 of us had water to drink). There are large TVs playing various sports and music going as well. There is also a bar that is in the center of the main dining room, so it's pretty loud and busy. The wait staff was pretty attentive and kept our cups full. We enjoyed it and will be back but probably not for a date when we want to talk. It's a nice place for a fun meal with family and friends.

    I was going to go 5 stars, because seeing how the staff here interacts with the community, almost…read moreeerily on a first name basis, giving normal patrons hugs and conversing in a familiar matter, a definite staple in the immediate community. The cohesiveness of the staff, is phenomenal. Brandon and Michael were my service personnel, and the hospitality that they provided was nothing less than stellar. Seriously, I've dined at a ton of upscale eating establishments, but these guys are five star / Michelin star restaurant type of staff, minus the vest, cummerbund and bowtie Think I'm lying? Look at all my reviews. I'm staying across the parking lot at the rat roof inn. I've stayed in this hotel before, and have seen this place multiple times throughout the last year, I can't not see it, because it's directly outside my window on the third floor, but I'm just so overly critical about my Mexican food and never came in, but I did today. I really wish I would have given this place a try before. Anything less than four stars about this place is an absolute robbery. Even from a stranger. The amount of unity in this restaurant is uncanny, it definitely has a small town vibe (sorry, I HATE using that word). These guys know everybody, and it seems like everybody knows everybody! So seeing so many people as repeat customers is obviously a good sign. Michael and Brandon made me a very generous jalapeno margarita.. I'm a drinker, daily drinker, liquor, and after throwing this bad boy back, I was definitely feeling like a smooth barracuda! I sat there for a good couple hours. Conversating with other restaurant goers at the bar. Everybody is just so nice, that is why I love the South. I'm only pulling one star, because my food was cold. I hate I hate I hate to say that, because everything else was so spot on. Even in the middle of my rice it was a little bit over room temp and my enchiladas weren't melted at all.. I was going to ask them to take it back and heat it up a little bit longer, but as the night went on they got really busy so they were hustling and bustling taking care of other customers. I'll definitely be back the next time I'm here in the area. You guys have a great staff, and I know the food is good, a lot of the food that they carried by me to other tables was actually sizzling. I might have just got the bad luck of the draw. ***DISCLAIMER*** This pure, uncut, honest review is federally protected under Federal Law by way of Bill #EO14149.

Unfortunately it depends on the cook so the burgers can sometimes be a little more done than preferred if you like a medium burger. Any temp you get it, theyre always juicy and seasoned well. Another major plus is hand cut fries!!!! This is the only place in town that I know of who does hand cut fries. They are so so good. My husband gets sweet potato fries and I've heard great things about the okra but you cannot separate me from those hand cut fries. I have chosen not to return to places just based on the fact that they use frozen fries. I've heard rave reviews about their chicken wings (so much so I can't get them to try the burger lol). The staff is always nice. I call my order in so it does take anywhere from 15-30 mins to prepare, and I love knowing my order is actually fresh and not pre-cooked and reheated. Is the burger pretty expensive? Yes, but I'll be honest... if you were to try to find an equivalent burger, a double cheese burger meal at Culver's will cost you the same and you're not getting as much burger AND it's not a local joint.
