This has become a go-to for my fiancé and I. We love the chips and salsa and the Vaca Loca is a must have! We have been here over a handful of times and the service has always been great.

Being newer to the GR area and loving Mexican food, looking for the place. I finally found it after more than trying 5 other places!

We got the prickly pear margarita pitcher on the rocks and that was good. The chips and salsa were good. The carne asada came with rice, beans, sliced avocado and a MOUND of onions. It was okay. The enchiladas supremas were okay. Overall, the food was good but it can definitely use more seasoning. The servers were super nice and looked happy!Parking: Small parking lot

Fast & friendly service! Margarita was flavorful and loved the option for Tajin on the rim. Chorizo con Queso was delicious. Glad they added tomatoes to break up the fat from the cheese & chorizo. Very clean & modern decor!

I’ve been here a few times for dine in and takeout and the food is always amazing along with the service. Tried the birria today and 11/10 would recommend! Also, the Niña Fresa is a must if you’re looking for a refreshing adult beverage.

I came here based on the reviews I have seen and thought I would give it a try. We came in on a Friday night around 5:30-6:00 and we got seated right away. Luckily for us, we got parking too, which is quite limited. Small quaint little restaurant, traditional look. We did not have the best experience. I ordered a drink and a queso dip when our waitress came. We waited around and after asking, she finally brought it over to the table. My food was just okay. Nothing spectacular. The prices are higher than other Mexican restaurants in the area as well.

If you like American Mexican you will like this place, not very authentic, much better places in GR and a lot better acoustics
