I got service from Karol!! She was awesome! Once she found out I was out of town she was even more welcoming if that was even possible. Food was great! She recommended tostada de ceviche mixto and it delivered! Ta is where small but good. Make sure to order more. lol Thanks Karol!
Amazing food, a kind of retro diner feel, really great staff that even let me try one of the agua frescas before I ordered it. We will absolutely be back.
This place serves authentic Mexican food. Personally, I do prefer Tex Mex, myself but I appreciate good authentic cooking. We ordered the Birria Res (Red beef stew). I've never had birria before although, it's been a buzzword among Mexican/ American restaurants lately. This is a large hearty stew, sure to cure a hangover, or sop up the alcohol in your system as you partake. Very good, mildly spiced flavor with tender beef. The server said you can eat it like a soup or use the included tortillas to make a wet taco with the meat. I enjoyed this dish but you definitely need to share among two, maybe three people. We also got the Fajita Mixto with beef, chicken and shrimp. It was a lot of food. The beef was a bit tough but the seasonings were very good. We had a couple of delicious agua frescas to go with that. Next time, we will probably just go with the Birria and some tacos. This is a bright space, the lighting is too bright kind of like you'd expect at a cantina rather than a restaurant. A little mood lighting might give it a better ambience, because it seemed a bit sterile with the fluorescent lights. The server said they are opening the bigger space next door in May so they can accommodate a band. I'm also guessing it's a big enough space to clear for a dance floor. It's huge and I can't wait for Cinco de Mayo! Also, they are opening until 2AM on Saturdays!
Absolute best Mexican restaurant I've been too. The service was amazing and the food had a lot of flavor. Our son spilled his drink and two waiters came to clean it quickly. Our waiter (Araceli) was phenomenal, she was on top of it and made sure we had everything we needed. If I could rate this restaurant more stars I would.
This restaurant serves a wide variety of authentic Mexican dishes, each bursting with bold flavors and perfectly balanced spices. The quality and taste truly capture the essence of traditional Mexican cuisine. The atmosphere is clean and welcoming, making it a comfortable spot to enjoy a great meal. Overall, I’d rate my experience an 8/10—a place I’d gladly recommend to anyone looking for genuine Mexican flavor and a satisfying dining experience.
Excellent place!! The music isn't too loud and they have different screens to watch sports or the news! It's quiet and the waitresses are very friendly!! I had a very delicious torta ahogada. I recommend it. The chips and salsa are delicious! And they're not expensive, at reasonable prices! I'll be back for birria, which is their specialty!
