    Service was great, place was nice and clean and decorated like a cantania. We had chicken tacos on a flour tortilla with refried beans and rice. The food was very tasty. I was very surprised that they did not have tamales or tostadas in the menu. It was a little higher priced than other Mexican restaurants in the area.

    Chicken Flautas
    Alyssa H.

    We're in town for a beach trip and popped in here for dinner. This place was great!! The staff was so wonderful and friendly. The food was fantastic! Everything had such great flavor and was well priced. Just a heads up for those who don't know, if you order a large beer just know it is in fact a LARGE beer. Loved it here!

    Don't judge a book by its cover. Hidden in the back corner of the parking lot, but the inside decor is nice and staff are very are friendly. You can tell as soon as you walk in, the food is authentic! Our waitress brought us chips and salsa and the salsa was fresh and flavorful. Had a nice kick to it. First, we got the Chicken Flautas, which were out-of-this-world delicious. Fresh, crispy, and flavorful; some of the best taquitos I've ever had. Then, our entrees came and they were fantastic. I ordered the Quesa-Birria. Birria was savory and smooth; the brisket inside the tortillas melts in your mouth! Prices were very reasonable, waitress was pleasant and attentive; gave us recommendations too. Decor was lovely and the food was delicious. 5/5 stars. Looking forward to coming back!

    Lunch chicken fajitas
    Emily J.

    My boyfriend and I wanted a warm, delicious filling lunch, and we remembered enjoying a meal here awhile ago, so we came back. The staff here were all super nice, and it wasn't a super crowded time (1:30pm). We were still able to order off the lunch menu specials which was perfect! I ordered the lunch chicken fajitas, and he ordered the lunch Mexican quesadilla. Both meals were excellent portion sizes (I took some home!), and they were seasoned and cooked perfectly! We were both super impressed and can't wait to return!

    Margarita sampler

    I said I'd return so here goes. The weather was favorable and sat outside. Same level of friendly attentive service with fresh Chips and sala brought to table right after being seated. I could not pass on the Enchiladas Mole Publano; sooo good. The margarita flight sample was fun and nicely presented and all were tasty and different. The flautas app was very good and enough to share with four. The red drum baked in banana leaf provided a nice presentation. It was moist and tasty though the side salad had no dressing and would have preferred refried beans over the rice. Our table shared the molten chocolate cake and ice cream; sooo good and a must! The manager came by a couple times to check on everything which I always like (they really care!!). Yes, I'll be back, and will be going for the carne asada.

    Tacos al Pastor y pollo

    Good & Drinks were delicious! Our food came quickly and they have a nice large menu of different items to choose from. My only negative was we sat on the patio which is beautiful by the way but there seemed to be tons of bugs flying around. There was a chiminea on the patio which looked to have some brush / water in it so I am wondering if that was the culprit. Regardless I we will definitely be back but maybe sit inside or further way from the chiminea next time.

    Great food and great service

    Great food and service Very nice place to dine and first time get take out today, both are great my son loves their food ! We will be back

    LOVE EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS PLACE!!!! So cute and a vibe! Food IS SO FRESH & the service is NEXT LEVEL FAST! Literally it's like they read my mind! Their guacamole is soooo good and their margs!!! YUM!!! I got the chicken burrito bowl and the ceviche BIG PORTIONS! CUTE PATIO!!! Love this

    Excellent food and lunch value...but I are too much! I had the chicken enchilada lunch special which included 3 delicious enchiladas, rice a hand refried beans. My partner had the brisket quesadilla, also very good. Both plates included chips and salsa to start and rice nd refried brand for sides. All for $9.99 each.

    We LOVE this place! Mexican food is my favorite. Places I can take my dogs are also my favorite. With the outside patio, you can easily bring your fur baby! Food was amazing - Tex mex style for me and "real Mexican" for my hubby. Drinks were fabulous, food was amazing and the service was wonderful. Can't go wrong with this one!

The restaurant is especially known locally for its authentic Mexican breakfast dishes, birria, and chilaquiles.

I tried the Dovorciados eggs (two sunny side up eggs on top of a crispy corn tortilla with red and green salsa, separated by refried beans, and queso fresco.) with the Cafe de Olla. Everything was delicious. The staff was friendly and welcoming, and the atmosphere felt cozy and authentic. Easily one of the best breakfast and lunch spots in Wilmington. I'll definitely be back!

Today was not my first time eating here, and if I'm be truthful , every time I'm in town, I make it a point to stop by. They serve the kind of traditional Mexican breakfast I grew up loving, along with so many other delicious options. The staff is always warm and welcoming, serving every guest with the biggest smiles. You'll also often see the owner walking around as well, checking on tables and making sure everything is going smoothly, which adds such a personal touch. The restaurant itself is clean, beautifully decorated with cultural charm, and filled with the incredible aroma of fresh spices cooking in the kitchen. I always begin with their Café de Olla--a slow-simmered coffee made with raw brown sugar, cinnamon sticks, cloves, orange peel, and coffee. It's served hot, full of flavor, and not overly sweet. Honestly, it's the only coffee I'll happily drink without creamer or added sugar. This visit, I ordered the Tamal Montado: two tamales over a bed of creamy black bean sauce, covered with red salsa, then topped with a sunny side egg, avocado, Mexican sour cream, queso fresco, and cilantro. Every bite was rich, comforting, and packed with flavor. I finished the meal with a pan dulce, which paired perfectly with the whole experience. I skipped tortillas this time, but they also have a tortilla station where they're made fresh by hand and cooked to order--always a sign you're in the right place!! They're open daily from 7 AM to 3 PM, and if you find yourself in Wilmington, this spot should absolutely be on your list
