“Not sure if I want everyone to know about this gem. The marinated beef on my taco was delicious, the refried beans perfect, the flavored water reason enough to go there. My Spanish sucks so I know there's a lot more here to be discovered on this menu. Tex-mex. The Empanada was good, the chimichanga was very good and the flan was excellent. Prices very reasonable. Already looking forward to going back.“

(You really don't know what you've got til it's gone) Free chips and salsa which is always a plus. Delicious queso and HEAPING portions (this was lunch portioning). Large drink selection, A+ margs, quick friendly staff members, and a good vibe for whatever kind of day you're having. What's not to enjoy????“

“Food was excellent, reasonably priced. Restaurant is beautifully decorated and comfortable. We ate there for lunch, and there appeared to be only 2 waitresses on duty. Ours was pleasant and courteous, but the restaurant was fairly crowded, and service was extremely slow. It took a very long time to give our orders, receive our food and even longer to pay for it. I do not blame our waitress for this, but it appeared to be an issue of not enough wait staff. Not sure we will return, as this did not leave a great impression for our first visit.“

First off, everything is handmade and made-to-order—guacamole, queso dip, tortillas, chips, everything fresh and made with love. Tacos were incredible, they don’t try to dress things up with fixin’s and instead rely on the quality of the protein, the barbacoa was absolutely out of this world. Hands down best Mexican I’ve had in years, and we will be back.Parking: Full parking lot on the side of the building.Kid-friendliness: Great place to bring kids.“

“To say it's difficult to find authentic Mexican food in Myrtle is an understatement. This place is just as legit as a border town in Texas or Arizona. Little street tacos with a big selection of delicious meats. They have carnitas prepared just right, carne asada (steak) with great marinade, and their green salsa is hotter than the red, which is the way it should be. Tortillas are hand made (hecho a mano) at the restaurant, and the rice is like my tia (aunt) used to make. I could only try so much in one visit, but with the restaurant being right by the airport, I am eating there every time I fly in. If you're local to Myrtle, do yourself a favor and stop in. You'll get some delicious food just like you'd get on a vacay to Mexico. Delicioso!“

“If you are in Bossier, this is a must do. Definitely the best food I've had in all my years of coming here. Tiara, the lovely lady behind the counter, helped me through the menu since it was my first time there. She recommended the combination plate, and I'm so glad she did. I was going to take my dinner to go, but the ambiance was so friendly, I decided to stay and eat there. The combination plate had grilled shrimp, steak, and chicken with fajita style peppers and onions, freshly made pico, lettuce, refried beans, and rice. It was served with homemade warm corn tortillas. She brought me some homemade sauces also. So good. I also had to get a beef barbacoa street taco because of all the yelpers raving about them. They were all correct. Get one. No, get two. They are absolutely the best barbacoa tacos I've ever had. My next trip will include a shrimp cocktail. I saw Tiara carry one to the next table over, so I took a picture of it to post. I will be visiting this fantastic restaurant every time I'm in town.“
