We were the only ones in the restaurant, but they were doing a pretty good take out business. If you eat inside, First you will be served an extremely watery salsa lacking in taste. Our server did not tell us about the salsa bar in the back, (but we knew about it thanks to the Yelp reviews). We tried to eat the tasteless watery salsa and I was ready to walk out the door. Then we hit the bar in the back and mixed it with the watery sauce and absolutely delicious. There are so many different flavors to combine and make your own. The food is good for the area. We visit every few months and I would definitely visit again.

You know the food is legit when the server keeps falling back into Spanish while speaking to you! It's an easy stop when driving I-95, like we were. It's in a cozy little town just off the interstate exit. CHIPS AND SALSA (SALSA BAR) Good chips/salsa is key to good Mexican restaurant. The chips were good and warm, but I found the standard salsa served table-side to be a bit bland. I then discovered they have a SALSA BAR!!! So many good options. I didn't get the name but they had a creamy version of the green verde salsa that had perfect heat for me (medium) with some garlic kick (at least that is what I think it was). Highly recommend!!! QUESO We ordered some queso for the chips and it was good. It didn't have any spice. In my opinion it could have been improved with just a little pepper seasoning. CHILIS POBLANO Best I have ever had! Traditional cheese-stuffed rellenos peppers topped with mole sauce!!! If you don't know, mole is a savory chocolate sauce (not sugary dessert sauce). This combination is so dang good!!! CHORIZO TACOS Chorizo sausage is a staple in Mexican food. These tacos showed it off very well! The dish came with a small roasted onion (super savory) as well as a roasted jalapeño which wasn't super spicy, and made for nice seasoning when cut up. I would come back in a heartbeat!

Both the service and the food bely the humble exterior and interior. The inside is Spartan with just a few tables, but the service couldn't be better. For lunch, I had Melecio's Quesadilla with Chorizo, served with rice & beans. My wife had Three Soft Shell Tacos with Steak and a side order of rice. Both meals were outstanding, and truly authentic. No fancy presentation here as the meals are served in "to-go" containers with a plastic spoon. When we were there, every table (all 5 of them!) were occupied entirely by locals, except for us. This is actually a 4-star place, but I'm giving it 5 stars because we both liked it so much! Location: 4 stars Food: 5 stars Service: 5 stars Value: 4 stars Ambiance/Décor: 3 stars

Their salsa is a bit on the spicier side but is made with fresh ingredients and tastes good! You can tell that it's homemade, which is an expectation for any Mexican restaurant. I got the chicken ACP. It is great but just like the salsa, something in it (likely the cheese) has a kick! All of the components (rice, chicken, and cheese) have good flavor. If you're not a big taco fan (like me), then try the ACP! You won't regret it. My dad's birria tacos were great as well. Our server was a great guy, and frequently came around to check on us. The vibe is more of a modern Mexican establishment.
