Great authentic food and friendly staff.
If you are looking for mexican food without any spices or seasoning and as bland as the day it came out of the package, this is... the restaurant for you. My paella had five shrimp no cheese and tons of bell peppers and onions, while my vegetable mix was onlybell peppers and onions, plus nothing tasted like it was seasoned! This restaurant is for you if salt and pepper is too much foryour pallet, because this ain?t it. Highly disappointed that we spent $40 on food that none of my family enjoyed. #Salt-N-PepeLife Read more
Was traveling through so all Mexican Restaurants have menu items that are better than others. So as a visitor I didn't know what... was best. We all ordered something different and it was pretty good. Not our favorite but worth stopping in. Probably is one ofthose places that once you know how to order, you would pick the best items and enjoy even better. Technically it would be 3stars, but it was good enough on the first trip ordering blind that I'm sure it's probably a 4 star rating. Read more
The decent ambiance, clean place, and friendly staff did make an impression But that's not the most important thing you look for... in a restaurant but the quality and taste of their FOOD. I must say they failed miserably in making the food at least asdelicious as a fast-food restaurant. I don't even know how to describe it since I don't have a vast knowledge about Mexican foodbut within my past experiences at other establishments, I have to admit this one was the poorest of all.

Very fast service. I was seated immediately, and my food seemed be brought immediately after I ordered it. They were out of... Jamaica, but offered free refills on horchata! Read more
The restaurant is decorated very nicely and the room itself is fantastic. The high ceilings make it feel so much larger. The... food was delicious and there are several options for any type of eater. The lay out when you first walk in is cramped if therestaurant is busy, but manageable. The staff is extremely friendly and courteous. I would recommend stopping in! Read more
It's a lot bigger and nicer inside than it looks. The service was good, the salsa was very and the food was OK. A little on the... pricier side then what we pay locally. Read more
