This place was cute, and had some authentic feeling atmosphere. Pretty open visually, but cozy feeling. Seating was hard, but it also doesn't seem meant for long drawn out lunches. A nice selection if drinks. I ordered the mojito and did not finish it. The lime in it was too much, and though the menu referred to a pinch of sugar, I didn't taste nor see a grain a granule of sugar. The supplied chips and salsa, the first round brought out was bottom of bag and a ton of tiny pieces so our fingers kept going into the salsa. when we mentioned it, the kind waitress brought us a new batch which was nice. The salsa was yummy, a slight hint of heat - I am sensitive to it so the average person probably won't notice it. I had the pork and Mexican rice. Portion wise it was a great amount. The meat was pretty basic in flavor, good but nothing that stuck out as amazing, it was cooked well and not chewy or dry. The rice again, pretty basic, as if sazon was used but 2 packets short of hitting the flavor mark, at least in that batch. Hubs had the steak tacos with chimichuri. Flavor for the chimi was good, but not enough. He was happy though and cleared his plate. Overall, I'd give this place 3.5 stars but Google doesn't do halves, so I rounded up. We will likely go back at some point, but not in a rush. It's nice for a quick lunch.

Use to love this place. I have ordered the pork chop meal many times. It use to come with 2 big Pork chops covered with this amazing spicy sauce. The meal was always too much to eat in one sitting. The left overs would taste even better the next day. It was well worth the 17 dollars. I Went there yesterday and was very disappointed. The meal came with one small pork chop and the sauce was bland. I was told that the meal came with one 8oz pork chop instead of two 4oz chops (as in the past). I cook pork chops quite often. It is one of my "go to" choices when ever I dine out. I know the difference between 4 and 8 ounces of meat. I was asked if I wanted them to get the scale out so they could weigh it. I refused and decided to not make a scene. I have written very few reviews for restaurants, but I have recommended this restaurant to many. I resend that reccomendation. Be warned!

OK spot for a quick bite. The food was decent, but the vibe and ambiance of the place is really not much to talk about. I didn't see any Mexican people here, everyone from the servers to the people in the kitchen were white, so I doubt this is authentic mexican food. I had a Tamal and this was not the type of tamal I was expecting (I have had real Mexican food many times, including in Mexico). The enchilada was good. The interior is plain with mismatched tables, not very welcoming to stay and enjoy a good time, they definitely should do a little reorganizing and redecorating in there. The food was not bad and the waitress was very helpful, however I doubt I would come back.

Stopped in for a quick lunch while running errands and had the chicken chimichanga with pineapple habanero salsa. Lunch was served quickly and on point! It was cooked perfectly to order, and had a nice little kick from the salsa. Have eaten here several times, and even more takeouts, and they have never disappointed! They offer a nice selection of alcoholic beverages as well, with some great freshly made margaritas! The staff is very helpful and friendly. Tacos are a must, and the gluten free quesadillas are a nice option for anyone that needs gluten free. Another great choice is the house burger - a half pound burger fine with a little twist!!
