Very nice margaritas. The prices were good especially for taco Tuesday. Service was good and the atmosphere was cozy. Good selection of flavors for the tacos, burritos, quesadillas etc. The execution of the food was good but not exceptional.

All around excellent! Best tortilla chips ever. Tasty marg's (I had the Pina Pico - jalapeno + pineapple = 'nuf said) coupled with street tacos, best Mexican food I've had in Kelowna thus far. Bonus, they also cater. ? ?

This has been a family favourite for years but tonight was disappointing… Tonight we went to celebrate birthday and received the worst service we have ever experienced at this restaurant. The lady serving us was very unfriendly and un-attentive as our drinks sat empty for most of the night. One of our meals was incorrect and at the end of the night- three additional margaritas were added to our bill that were never ordered. The server name on the bill was Brybb d, however I don’t think that’s the persons name. My recommendation is that She should be taught to smile a bit.

I went here during the dine around event in january with friends and i loved their food! I ordered their chorizo crispy taquitos, tamales, and churros. It was all fabulous and i only got photos of the tamales because i ate everything else too quickly! I would highly recommend this restaurant, and they also have a great taco tuesday deal!

We've been here a couple of times and loved both times. This is now our favourite mexican restaurant in town. The Tostadas and delicious and we tried the Nachos today, very yummy. My favourite dish is the Chilaquiles with added chicken. We will be going back many times.
