Des Moines has so many hidden gems and here's another one! I know, no one thinks of Iowa as a state to find quality and legitimate Mexican food - but I promise this place delivers!

This small Mexican restaurant has amazing food that comes out pretty quickly! I recommend the Burrito Mexicana for a classic burrito (very filling). They also have Mexican candies/drinks up front.

It is in a strange location but I would definitely return.
