The free chips and salsa was good, but personally I prefer a little more heat in my salsa. Typical Mexican restaurant feel inside with many booths and tables. Expect to pay around $10-12 per person for dinner. Not much parking out front, but seems to be a little more nearby. The chimichanga dinner meal was great, full of flavor. The cheese dip sauce was really tasty. Possibly the best refried beans I've had. The rice was normal Mexican rice. The wifey said her enchiladas supreme meal was really good. The beef was well-seasoned, chicken was flavorful, and bean enchilada was yummy. After our meal the waiter brought us a complimentary simple dessert consisting of a fried chip with sugar, whipped cream and chocolate drizzle on top. Wasn't much to it but had a nice flavor and is a freebie they don't have to do. Never seen this from many other restaurants. Overall we really enjoyed our dinner and will definitely be visiting again, likely many more times.

Maybe we caught them on an off night but didn't seem super busy to be bad at the service.

The dining area was clean and well lit. I ordered the pollo loco and my sister ordered the Chimichangas. She ordered an extra order of Birria flour tortillas too. Everything was delicious! The best birria I've ever tried! And the cheese dip was creamy and thick too. They only have bottled drinks, so that's my only concern. Food was hot and delicious.

In an area with so many Mexican restaurants, I missed this one for years. I am now wishing I would…read morehave been going here all along. Very convenient location, although parking is a bit tricky due to an older lot with faded lines. Inside the restaurant is really basic but quaint and clean. Server was top notch - maybe the best I've had in some time. Food came pretty quickly, even though we arrived at the same time as four other parties. The food was very good, if not overwhelmingly so. The one thing this place seems to really have going for it is the staff and the type of Mexican cuisine they make. It's not commercial, chain, or whatever nor is it uber authentic which is usually a bit too much for most palettes. In other words, it's just the right balance of those two things. Will go again for sure.

There are drawings and bright colors everywhere -- on the chairs, tables, walls, even the menu. There's not a single spot without something going on. In my opinion, it's just too much. The service, without exaggeration, was just okay. As for the food, I have mixed feelings. The flavors were decent, but everything felt a bit over the top. Guacamole is one of my favorites, but here it had a strange taste. The person I was with mentioned it had cucumber (I didn't notice it myself), but it definitely wasn't to my liking. The presentation of the dishes was probably the highlight, but the flavors didn't really win me over... everything felt a bit too excessive.
