Servers are amazing! Love the tortilla soup ! The $10 buffet is good & they have a special where you get soup , salad , an entree & dessert for about $13. Margaritas are strong but super delish!

Rachel Rebecca

Lovely, really friendly service ! People were warm and affable! The food was plentiful and quite delicious and there was plenty of vegetables and it was quite filling!

Alex Jervis

Taco Tuesday is the real deal here! Hand made tortillas , fresh meat and toppings, just dive in! Entrance is around back. ????

Mango margarita ! Brunch on Sundays are awesome. It includes Champagne but you have to ask for it. Plus there is always a $10 off coupon in Sunday paper and/or circular
