    Enchilada verde
    Megan B.

    I was taking a day trip to the area and found this place online. When you walk in the place is very colorful and spaced out. Our waiter was awesome and friendly. I had ordered their enchiladas verdes and it was one of the best I've had in a while. The owner or the manager even came over and checked on us to make sure that everything was good. If I get back to the area I will be stopping there again.

    Cheap yet large menu. Ordered a steak and chicken fajita salad which topped out at less than $12. Flavors of the salsa and chip are pretty standard nothing to get overly excited about. The service was fast, even though the place was very busy. Super clean and bright joint with ample spacing between the tables. The salad was pretty lackluster but did fill me up.

    Chimichangas and seafood fajitas. Note one of the cocktails. Yummy.

    Located off I 64, we had dinner and cocktails and everything was hot, good, and lots of food at a reasonable price. The service was good and everyone was friendly. We would definitely go back.

We…read morewere greeted quickly, and shortly after being seated, we were brought salsa and chips--which were excellent. The chips were clearly fresh out of the fryer, perfectly crisp, and paired with a flavorful salsa that had a nice hint of heat. We both ordered the Speedy Gonzales, featuring a cheese enchilada, beef taco, and refried beans. As expected, everything was consistently good and exactly what we've come to enjoy from that dish. The restaurant itself has a great look and feel, making it an easy and enjoyable stop for lunch. We would certainly come back again if we're ever in the area

They had a lot of customers dining in and a few picking up takeaway orders. It didn't take very long for them to take our orders and to have it come out of the kitchen. They have a spacious dining area that is decorated very much on theme with Mexican-inspired decor and murals. It was cute. I ordered carnitas and a frozen mango margarita. We also ordered guacamole to share for the table. The carnitas plate was a filling portion and was quite flavorful. I quite enjoyed it. I was really disappointed with the frozen margarita; it tasted just like juice, and I was kind of looking forward to drinking a stronger margarita. We asked for a little bit more tequila to add to it, but it didn't help much. I think was balance was all out of wack. The guacamole we ordered also never made its way to our table, and we had to ask the cashier to confirm with our waiter that they need to take it off our bill because we never got it. Overall, we had an okay experience.

This little shop is fantastic. From 8 AM into the afternoon, they offer delicious coffee, tea, hot chocolate, pastries, and snacks that feel both cozy and elevated. We had hot chocolate, tea, coffee, a pain au chocolat, and a butter croissant -- everything was warm, fresh, and absolutely perfect. It was so good that a few miles down the road, I seriously considered turning around to get more. The staff was incredibly friendly and patient, answering all of our questions without rushing us (there were enough staff working that there was no line). The atmosphere is clean, bright, and inviting -- the kind of place you want to linger in. Next time we're in Lexington, this will be a daily stop. Highly recommend.

I went ahead with that, and it was both redundant of classic ice cream sandwiches, but also delivered a highly pure dairy flavor typical of quality gelato. I got a Matcha to balance out the sweetness. While it looks a little foamy on top, it was a very strong, almost grass flavored beverage that was appropriate to the circumstance. Some premade grab and go food options may be decent, but did not appeal to my needs at that time.
