The Mexican food here is really good. Good portions. The chips and salsa is good, not spicy. Hidden little gem in a shopping center. It does take a min to get service but it is worth the wait.

The food was really good and affordable! My husband got a taco, enchiladas, rice, and beans. I got an avocado salad with beef fajitas for the meat choice. We didn't get drinks. The total was $26 with tax and tip. We'll be back!

Food is always delicious. Service could improve. But you need an itemized bill prior to paying. Sometimes there are items on there that were not part of your order!
