Great food decent prices and nice service. I don't care much about the ambiance since I usually get food to go.

After FIVE years of eating quesadillas on Friday nights, we so sad to be moving away! We love this place. It's cozy and quiet enough to enjoy the fun music. The food has been AMAZING, every single visit. Even through the take out phase of COVID. The cheese is melty. The chicken tender and tasty. The salsa is perfectly seasoned. Leonora always takes such care of us. If you haven't eaten here yet because it is in a little strip mall with a gas station, GET IN HERE!!

Food was very good. I enjoyed the burrito. The staff were very nice, I called to make an order and asked questions. The employee that answered the phone was very sweet and even asked my name so that she could recognize my name and make sure my order was correct. Will definitely order again.

It's not authentic Mexican food. The service was okay . Just didn't enjoy my plate the flavor was missing.

Food tasted old and gave us food poisoning for 2 days. I had the chicken chimichanga with beans that tasted old. The "salad" was maybe half a spoonful of tiny shredded lettuce with a spoonful of sour cream. My husband ordered Carne Asada that was dry, over cooked and also tasted old. The rice was horrible and tasted old. The freshest thing was the jalapeno. We couldn't even eat 1/2 the plate of food and we still got sick. Terrible. Do not eat here there's much better places near this location.

The great places to sit down and eat if you don’t wanna go too far to look for food the food is very good and the atmosphere is very well also.Parking: Very open lot to park your car.Kid-friendliness: Very good music, family oriented atmosphereWheelchair accessibility: They have a flat sidewalk and the front door way is also flat so that wheelchairs can get in easily. Also the table seating is accessible for wheelchair users too.

So happy I found this little gem! It's been around for almost a decade on the other side of my town and I just discovered how fantastic it is! First thing they scored a perfect 100 on their health score dated 12/22/22 (most other Mexican restaurants within a 10 mile radius of my home were at 80-89). At this time they aren't serving alcohol (they stopped during the pandemic bc they were paying so much to the city for the license that wasn't being used). The food was DELICIOUS best shrimp quesadilla I've had out! Went to all my friend how his food was and noticed his plate was clean ? so he most definitely enjoyed the burrito, tamale, and tostada along with rice and beans! Our waiter was great.... with suggestions and making sure we had everything we needed. Did I mention the salsa is made fresh daily in house and it is SUPERB! This place will be on our Mexican rotation for sure!Vegetarian options: Several!Kid-friendliness: There were no kids in there while we were but they had a great kids selection on the menuWheelchair accessibility: Ramp by handicap parking

Excellent food. Great service and food. The place is small, but we always get are food to go so that's no big deal. Will definitely come back.

This little Hidden Gem was awesome! I was so impressed with the waiter and the food but the most impressive was the health score of 100 you don't find that very often in Mexican restaurants. Their salsa is fresh made daily in house and you can tell the difference, the cheese dip was huge but considered a small....the shrimp quesadilla had so many shrimp in it that I lost count! Even though the shrimp were tiny they were cooked perfectly! My friend had the taco, Burrito and tamale, combo and before I could even get my plate situated he was finished with his ! Currently they do not sell alcohol bc they let their liquor license expire during the pandemic. Most definitely adding this place to my regular Mexican rotation!

Door Dash Order - The packaging was absolutely excellent!!! I ordered 3 chicken soup ( caldo de pollo). They nearly secured it plastic containers with a small clear plastic bag tied. That, tortillas, lime, and utensils were all in a separate small brown paper bag located in a huge grocery paper bag even neatly stapled. Although I prefer bone in chicken for the soup, the flavor was simply amazing. It came with vegetables, shredded chicken breast, rice, and avocado.
