TL;DR: Typical Mexican for this area. Not bland and not entirely authentic, but still good.Dropped by for lunch and I enjoyed their take on Yolandas (three chicken enchiladas covered in queso with rice). They were everything you could ask for. I did notice more vegetables (bell peppers) in these than usual. This is a plus for me, but if may not be for everyone.Their salsa was very flavorful and a little on the spicy side. They carry Coke products but more importantly they have Mellow Yellow.

Two words: Taco Tuesdays! My friend introduced me to this Mexican joint many years ago, and we just revisited the restaurant on a recent Tuesday evening. The Tuesday taco special is amazing. For $1.00 each, your choice of a hard shell ground beef or shredded chicken taco. White cheese and lettuce included. The tacos are robust, delicious, and definitely not skimpy. I hope to return sometime during a future Tuesday!

Many years ago a misunderstandingtranspired during covid beginnings. The food industry suffering not just finacially but racially. I have Spanish speaking people in my family.Everyone stuggled with fear & reprimands from the governing entities,if covid guidlines weren't followed. I didn't know my child had a sensitivities to a spice they use. We now avoid those dishes.It was concluded , by some,that we were supposing the food was bad . That's not true.They are very clean ! Food sensitivity is not to be confused with pathogen contamination. If one hasn't eaten the rich spicy food in many years you can experiance digestive episodes. I told someone I won't eat there again because I had diarrhea. A Mexican friend asked me if I felt sick. I said n. Just diarrhea. He said you're not use to the spices & the richness of the. Go back & eat a couple more times & that won't happen . He was correct.I also was trying to undo the hurridness she learned in school on their outings. It's a choking hazard. And she did choke. She was not ill just eating too fast.I would suggest eateries & concerned patrons, parents,work with City leaders to create some guidelines for schools that field trip to eateries.Allow for more time for the studentsto eat. It's a big liability for the Eateries & the schools .I don't tell people not to eat their anymore. About 50 to 60 of them . I say don't stop enjoying the place.So, we are sorry about the fallout. We enjoyed the place for so many years. We won't go back out of respect to not cause any undeserved difficuties or pain .Thank you for the good times we had . Many blessings for blessing us.PS. Everyone should check their credit card balances before they leave the house.
