Every server and team member was engaged with the tables, with more than one server checking on us (and others). They were also great at making recommendations for our food, since we had never eaten there. I forgot to take pictures but we've been back 3 times since! The food has been fantastic! Fresh herbs, tender meat, flavorful ingredients and everything we've had has been great. Previously we tried gorditas (soooo good), enchiladas and two kinds of burritos. This time, we chose quesabirria and shredded beef enchiladas. Both were fantastic! Even more, the drinks are incredible. The bartender has made a few different drinks, including margaritas and mojitos and they're never too sweet, just refreshing and delicious. The vibe of the restaurant is very easy going, fun (with some Latin music on) and relaxing environment. It's been very clean on each visit as well. Can't wait to go back!

We came on a Saturday around 5 and it was busy, we were told there would be almost an hour wait on the food and there wasn't a table available so we sat at the bar. It was worth it.

We ordered flautas and a torta, the food came out in 20 minutes and it was soo delicious. The food felt and tasted so authentic. The space is not small but not big and it's def unique but festive and cool. We tried visiting again on Thursday for dinner but this time there was a line outside, we need to time this better but worth it.

Parking was easy and the atmosphere was electric. When Mr.Roberto greeted us it truly felt like he was welcoming us into his home. We were seated and I ordered a lime house margarita and the jalapeño queso to start. The margarita blew me out of the water. It was so delicious I had to stop myself from getting another one (maybe on the weekend hehehe) the queso came out warm and Cheesey just how you want it! They give chips and salsa to start. Three types in a bottle and a pico type in a container. This is wonderful for me because I am a little baby when it comes to spice so I enjoyed the flavorful mild (green) while my boyfriend was a fan of the dark red really spicy one! For our mains we both got tacos he got the carne asada soft shell taco combo which came with three and I got the taco supreme which came with 2 mine were hard shell with a layer of cheese and then a soft shell. I really appreciate how they use shredded cheese on the tacos I got- it was very authentic and reminded me of actual Mexican food from Mexico and not this east coast Mexican food I can't seem to get away from in FL! We finished off the night with the flaun which was creamy and the perfect way to end this feast. We had to go boxes when we left and a beautiful heartfelt conversation with Mr.Roberto. He was full of pride, kindness, and personality. He made sure to visit every table and the atmosphere made me never want to do a to go order because then you'd be missing out of all the immaculate vibes. I can't wait to go back!

Reviews sounded good so we gave it a try. This place is great! It's located in a strip mall. You enter into a large room with many tables and chairs. To the right is a massive cooler filled with all sorts of beers, waters, sodas, etc. and you serve yourself. Bottle openers are on the tables. To the front left is a cashier stand. On the back wall is a series of menu boards showing what is available and prices. A server brought out a basket of tortilla chips and a trifecta of salsas. The darker orange salsa surely had chipotle peppers in it as it had a wonderful smokiness to it and not to spicy. The other two had some serious heat, too much for us. I ordered a small/regular size Michelada ($5.99) and my wife pulled a bottle of water (99 cents) from the cooler. Most of the patrons were drinking the Micheladas, many with the super sizers - maybe a liter. My Michelada came out with a nice jumbo shrimp and cucumber slice garnish and the rim had been dipped in tahin. What a surprise to see the shrimp! We both ordered burritos - my wife chose al pastor (pork) and I opted for steak ($14.99 ea.). Out came some serious burritos accompanied with a small, undressed salad of crisp lettuce, tomato and cucumber. The burritos are LOADED with meat, and just the right amount of rice, cheese, cilantro and onion. My steak was extremely tender, not chopped up into super small pieces as is typical. And the flavor was some of the best steak I've ever had. Likewise, my wife's al pastor was the best she had ever had. We could only eat half and brought the other half home for lunch the next day. Everything we saw coming out of the kitchen looked delicious. In one visit we became fans and will go back soon.

Tucked in the shopping plaza at Winkler / Gladiolus in Ft Myers, this cute and cozy spot has easy access to and from the beach and close to Health Park hospital. There are booths and a few tables for seating and to-go orders were available and certainly popular on our visit. The decor was festive and soft Mexican music played in the background. Bottled Mexican sodas, can sodas and beer are available. We chose sodas and chips and salsa to start as we scanned the menu. Please note, this is not like going to a typical American Mexican restaurant were chips and salsa come complimentary; you'll pay for a basket of fresh, hot, crispy tortilla chips and a 3 types of fresh salsa : green, spicy red and a creamy green. All were exceptional and fresh. Hubby ordered combo fajitas; beef and chicken. It came with a generous side of beans, rice and tortillas. I ordered the chicken flautas which also came with a side of beans and rice. Fajitas; meats were juicy and vegetables were cooked perfect. The flour tortillas were homemade and perfect taco size. Chicken flautas were crispy with a nice helping of shredded lettuce and cream sauce atop. We both enjoyed the refried beans and rice. Although my only complaint would be a bit more seasoning as I did use salt. Service was friendly, swift and efficient. The restaurant was tidy and clean. Definitely an easy laid back vibe. Can't wait for our next visit; I eyed the chicken nachos and they looked divine!

For what they had to work with though, the place did look lovely with all of the decorations! The hostess was warm and welcoming, and after she seated us in a booth, our server, Andre, came up to us and asked if we would like a beverage. Andre was highly attentive during our stay, yet also gave us the time and respect to make menu choices and eat our appetizer before we ordered our meal. Andre made the guacamole tableside, asking if we were OK with all of the ingredients, which we were happy to include. I love that the guacamole was fresh and plentiful. The chips were light and fresh! (Andre was always great in asking if we'd like more chips, drink, etc.) I ordered off their plant-based menu which is all vegan! I had a hard time deciding, but finally chose their Impossible bowl. It was delicious! I wish I lived in the area and could come back and try another dish, but sadly my vacation is almost over. Thank you for having a vegan menu with so many great options! I truly appreciate it.
