Brought my mom for lunch, this is her favorite place. I’ve brought her several times at her request. Fernanda was super patient and knew her order and how she likes it shrimp enchiladas is always what she orders. Today I ordered grilled fish tacos, food was delicious. Fernanda and my mom chatted about her hair cut. She’s an awesome employee so kind. I’ve also had the chili verde and chili telleno, so authentic Mexican food. Great salsa

Always a great place for delicious food! Been here many times, never had issue getting sat in a timely manner, mostly because we go on a Tuesday. Wish they had a Taco Tuesday, but even though they don't, still a great spot with lots of options and creative food made their own way!

We’ve eaten here several times and the food never disappoints. The steak Picado and Chele Verde were very flavorful and tasted great. Our server was attentive and insured our water glasses remained full throughout our entire meal. I would definitely recommend this spot to my family and friends.

This place serves the absolute best fish tacos I've ever had in my life. The photo represents the aftermath of a straight max session as I neglected to take a before pic. Dog friendly and great service! My dog Daisy clearly wishes she could have had some (she'll get a treat later ) 10/10 would recommend
