Mexican food margaritas great value good for groups quesadillas big portions good for a quick meal off-menu items chimichangas good for dates healthy food chalupa casual sweet tea queso chicken inexpensive bar lunch dinner
Maddie Whitley

The food is good & inexpensive ! They also have really yummy margaritas . The service here is often questionable, but nonetheless still a favorite of mine.

Christa Klein

the bean dip is amaze balls, refrained beans under white queso . also, the fajita for two is more like fajitas for four, except the shrimp . I'd pass them up for beef or chicken , they skimp big time

David Billiter

One of my favorite Mexican restaurants in the area. Huge portions (both food and margaritas ) and good service .

Aaron Biebert

The shrimp fajitas are amazing! Fast service , solid margaritas , chips , salsa...all great.

Dean Muir

Do yourself a favor and get either a pitcher of beer (so cheap ) or a pitcher of Strawberry Margaritas (the best margaritas around) trust me.

Rebecca Siekbert

If you have a group to feed, get the fajitas for 2 and ask for extra tortillas . It is so huge that we can feed 2 adults and 2 teenagers on one order and still end up taking home a box!

Michelle Hummel

Something off the menu thats sooo good ;-) You can get a burrito topped with queso and baked chicken instead of shredded :)

Lunika Bray

Great sweet tea and portions are huge. 1 meal 2 ppl perfect. Best fajitas ever

Steve Hoerst

I'm glad I'm here with the hot chick rather than the hot mess at the bar next to us. Also, the queso is awesome.

William Long

Chimichanga is probably the best meal here

Joe Rippe

If you can get the whole fajita down it should be free...so much food fire the price which is awesome.

Jason Martin

The cheese quesadilla is ridiculous

Travis Precht

Save your money. Head over to Mommouth St to La Mexicana or head up to El Rancho Grande in Kenwood. Slow to be served but quick delivery of foul tasting food.

Ariana Setters

So delicious...

Sarah Versluis

So much sour cream .......

Sarah Jones

Worst service I've ever had here! Apparently if you don't know what you want to eat right away you don't get served
