“This is a colorful little strip mall spot with a great salsa bar and very friendly counter service. The salsa was fresh and there are several varieties to choose from. The wife got her favorite, Camerones a La diabla and the shrimp were clean, and simmered in a rich , red sauce. The rice and beans are perfect!! I had the shrimp taco fish taco plate. The tacos were loaded with a killer slaw, cilantro and onions, and a killer sauce. I was full off one taco but if you know me, you know I finished both. This place is 10/10 and if we lived closer, would be our go to Mexican spot.“

“This is not your typical Mexican restaurant. Instead of chips and salsa they serve you mango. You can get guacamole made at your table and the menu includes pozole. The downside is they automatically add a tip for the chef after adding the tax. I wasn't sure of what to leave the waiter.“

“My friend Aleece and I had an awesome time tonight. This is our 2nd time at this location. The bartender Teresa made our night special. She was more than accomodating and friendly towards us. We came right at the end of happy hour, about 6:45 and I would expect most places to not give us the opportunity. Teresa made sure we got all of our food and drinks, plus 2nds all before happy hour was over and all with a smile on her face. Thank you!“

“The food has gotten much better here than when they first opened. The Birria tacos are excellent, as is the soup, but with summer coming up, my go-to is tacos al pastor or street tacos, as some of the bigger items on the menu can be a bit heavy.There is a huge selection on the salsa bar - Jalapeños and Carrots, Creme Salsa, Pico de Gallo, Tomatillo Salsa, sometimes radishes, limes, Chipotle Salsa and an extra hot salsa.There is also a red sauce, a green sauce and a habanero sauce if you ask for it.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian Burritos and Most items can be made vegetarian upon request.Parking: About twenty spots and a round corner parking area where you can park and be a little further.Kid-friendliness: Kids menu has the same size Quesadilla as the adult one, with a drink, and beans and rice for less money.“

They recently also revamped the face of the restaurant, so you know they mean business and are here to take care of their customers.

“I recently got hungry at 2 o'clock in the morning, and wanted to try a different different place than I usually go to. So, I came here. Overall, I was very happy. The person at the drive-through was friendly, and I got my food in a timely manner. I ordered the chicken taquitos, a fish taco, and an order of Carnitas fries. When I got home, I saw that they also gave me a small bag of chips on the side. Crispy, not greasy, very delicious. The Carnitas fries were amazing. A huge order, the Carnitas were tender, and they had such a great flavor. The order also came with guacamole, sour cream, and salsa. They were like nachos, only with fries instead of chips. I also liked the fish taco. it was a very good size. They didn't overdo it with the lettuce, and I liked the tartar sauce. It had a nice tang to it. The fish was not greasy, and it was a very large piece. The taquitos were OK. They tasted like your standard store-bought taquitos, but that must be standard for your drive-through Mexican place. I get the same type elsewhere. Not worth knocking down a star over. I had them with guacamole and cheese, the guacamole was delicious with a very decent sized portion, and the cheese was also a decent sized portion with a great flavor. The prices were comparable to what I have paid at other drive-through Mexican places in the area. If I am in the neighborhood again, I would be glad to stop by. Thank you.“
