    Mihoachan style Carnitas
    Altaf A.

    A nice Mexican option in the old Sir Pizza location. They have indoor seating as well as a nice patio, which was remarkably cool since it benefits from shade from the building. We were complimentary chips and salsa, and these chips were leaned towards gourmet. I got the Sonora Carne Asada. You know you're at a great place when just the rice and beans taste wonderful. The first bite of the steak put me over the moon - it was really flavorful and delicious. It came with a stack of warm tortillas. We tried a chicken tamale. This was done a bit differently than I'd expect. It was not in a corn husk and was slathered in maybe queso. The chicken inside was far too dry and this was just not comparable to the other dishes. Wouldn't order again. They added a credit card surcharge and I didn't see that disclosed anywhere. This left a bad taste taste for me. I would rather these folks build in all the fees they experience into their pricing. When I see such tacked on fees, I am less likely to return. Service was good and attentive, but we went in between lunch and dinner times so it was not busy.

    Frida Kahlo -- delicious l!!

    Another nice night at Santo Coyote - 1st time ordering Frida Kahlo -- delicious! The skinny margarita is also the way to go! So nice to have a friendly neighborhood place!

    Chicken with rice and queso dish

    Love this New Mexican spot in gibsonia! Located in treesdale, this restaurant is super cute and conveniently located near pine Richland high school. They have a great bar area with TVs to watch sports etc and also a decent size dining room and outdoor patio. We've been here a few times and the owner and staff are great. But on to what really matters - the food and drinks are fantastic! It's quickly become one of our favorites in the area. They have all the typical offerings and a great variety of drinks (and margarita flavors!). Their salsa is always great. We really like their chicken dishes, and they even have discounted lunch prices which is great (even on a Saturday). Be sure to check it out!

    Always GREAT! This has become our go-to for excellent food and great service and it delivered again! The margaritas are excellent too . Their queso is fantastic. I got the TakiTos and we also had the mahi mahi tacos and chicken fajitas. Everything was flavorful and delicious.

    food is great with good ambiance. like the gorditas, ixtapa bay and the frida khalo medley. ala carte menu is very reasonable.

    Fried ice cream
    Jamie A.

    Tucked away in a small business complex, this Mexican place is worth the trip! All of the food tasted fresh and flavorful. They bring chips and salsa to the table when you are seated. The skinny margarita was refreshing. The guac was smooth with chunks of tomatoes. Veggies for the fajita were grilled well and had a lot of great flavor. We had to get the fried ice cream which didn't disappoint with a nice crispy shell around the ice cream served in a fried sweet tortilla bowl. I will definitely go back!

    Fresh delicious food, friendly service. A little pricey. Limited vegetarian options listed on menu, but we were able to come up with something delicious.

    This is a hidden gem in the North Hills! The food, service, and Margaritas were excellent. My wife has celiac disease so she cant eat gluten. The staff was extremely knowledgeable and made sure she got something she could eat. We will definitely be coming back!

    Mahi Mahi tacos
    Maeve O.

    Wow! What a great space. Between the friendly staff, the twinkle lights, and the funky decor- they've really made this place special. The service was so fast. Before we knew it we had some of the freshest margaritas in hand, chomping on chips and various dips. My husband ordered chicken tacos and rice (he loved). I ordered the Mahi Mahi tacos which had a special sauce and mango salsa. Everything was phenomenal. We will be back soon.

    Chips & Salsa

    Really good Mexican food. Had the steak fajitas for lunch and they were pretty good but the steak is a little tough and probably could use a different cut. She had the huevos rancheros and said it was really good but could have had the tortilla chips or crispy tortilla underneath. Chips and sauce were pretty good and will be back to try something else. I was really looking forward to a chile relleno but they didn't have it on the menu

    Great location, wonderful food, reasonable prices and great ambiance. The name translates to…read moreMexican Cowboy, and that theme is reflected throughout in the artwork and food. The service was excellent and the portions were large. I love the menu and the variety of dishes. They played great dance music all the time, but we were able to easily talk and enjoy our meal. The parking was free, and it was fun to walk around afterwards and enjoy the historic square.

    I have eaten here on several occasions and always had a wonderful, tasty experience!…read moreThe inside has a lot of bright, fun colors and Mexican flags and other themed paintings. It is bright, cheerful and very clean. The menu has the typical Mexican restaurant options like tacos, fajitas, quesadillas, enchiladas and burritos and the also have a kids menu. I love their chorizo con huevo because not a lot of places have that kind of dish on their menu. It is chorizo (theirs has a great deal of flavor and isn't greasy like chorizo sometimes can be), onions, peppers and eggs. They serve it with tortillas and rice. Lots of food and packed with flavor. I have also tasted the enciladas and my husband loved the cowboy burrito. For drinks, especially during the summer they have awesome daily specials. I've tried the watermelon water and the cucumber lime. So very refreshing! Service is friendly and attentive and they are great about answering any questions that you might have about menu items. I highly recommend having lunch or dinner here and then heading next door to the creamery for delicious ice cream.

Depending on the size of the jar, it can serve either 1-2 people for the "half" or normal size and for the "full" it can serve 3-4 and boy are they worth every drop! The service was very friendly and to be seated we got lucky and didnt have to wait long however, the wait can be lengthy depending on the time you go because the restaurant isnt very big on the inside. Even though it isnt super big it still feels comfortable and the atmosphere is family friendly! I ordered the Birria Fries and it was DELCIOUS!!!! The meat was flavored perfect and it was soooo tender! My boyfriend got the Chicken Fajitas and I tried a piece of chicken and that was super yummy too! I will definitely be back to have some more yummy drinks and food!
