This was some of the BEST Mexican food I’ve had in a long time!! The food came out quick and hot.

💬

The queso was without a doubt the best I’ve had. I had beef fajitas and she had chicken fajitas. Both very tender and full of flavor.

💬

The food, atmosphere and drinks were amazing. Unfortunately the service is not great. We went twice at two different times to see if it was a one off.
