Loved this place! Good and authentic Mexican food. Varied menu. Reasonable prices. Free chips and salsa. Good service. Clean restaurant and bathrooms. Convenient location and parking. Will go there again when I pass through Brainerd.

Went for the margaritas and stayed for the food. $30 bucks for a pitcher, and it was very well made. Tex mex food was pretty decent. Next time, I'll be getting the fajitas. The table over got it, and the smell and sizzle were delightful.

I had heard of this place via the grapevine and thought I would check it out. From the minute we walked in it was excellent! The waiters were cordial and prompt yet not pushy. The atmosphere was friendly, not loud. The menu is extensive! We ordered and it was like we had ordered before we got there. It was hot and oh so delicious! The servings were large. You won’t go away hungry! The place was exceptionally clean. That was our first visit, the second visit was as good as the first if not better! We’re going back fir sure. Great place to dine out!

Nice sized restaurant with lots of different food options. Ordered 3 different foods plus 1 side, and it all had great flavor. We also asked for extra spicy for the camarones a la diabla, and they actually made it spicy, which was awesome.They have a nice sized dining area, so if you want to dine in with a larger group, this would be a great place to check out.Parking: Has decent parking in front of the resturantKid-friendliness: Has kids menu

Wow! Fantastic place :) I had the Philly burrito and it pretty much blew my mind. I will drive the hour to Brainerd just to eat at this place again.

Great food love this place. Only issue is when I paid with my card and left a tip on the card they double charged my total instead of just taking off the tip I put on the receipt. Most likely just an honest mistake. I'll use cash next time but will definitely be back. Best rice and beans around.
