This is the best Mexican Restaurant I have found in the area. There are many Tex-Mex places of varying quality in the area but this is real Mexican food. The host is very nice and pleasant and provides the charm you need at a place of respite.
I typically get the burritos. I believe I have had both beef and pork burritos and am very happy with the quality and volume. I also seem to recall getting the tacos and were quite happy with them. The burritos are large and well made with no skimping on ingredients. Before the meal they do provide you with chips and salsa and the salsa is one of the tastiest I have had. I've had salsa from many different Mexican and Tex-Mex restaurants and this salso is one of the best I've had.
The restaurant itself is small and unassuming. When you walk in you may wonder if you are in the right place. It's clean and unprepossessing. It's at one end of a small strip shopping center. At the other end is an Italian restaurant with pizza and hoagies, etc. There is a saguaro cactus sign out by the road to help you identify you have found it. The hostess is very pleasant and according to the menu she is Mexican and came to this country many years ago and decided to share some of what she loves from her home country with her adopted country that she nows considers her country. I say that that is a great idea and that she has done a great service to the food from Mexico. They also have authentic Mexican desserts and they are...
Read moreI went there today with 6 of my office staff, the restaurant was completely empty, we order 6 main course, 1 cheese enchiladas and 10 fresh drinks and 7 soft drink, we found a cockroach in our fresh drink, and the lady working there was very smart she was joking all the time we were in the restaurant for no reason and after we completed the food while leaving when I asked for check she gave me a paper with $287 written on it.. i asked the 3 times to give me a itemized bill of what we ate but she never gave it to us.. we waited 10mins but she was busy in the kitchen. As we were in a hurry, I just gave her my card and she went and charged me the whole amount. And because she did not give me i itemized bill i did not leave her a tip. After we left she came out to our car to tell me that i forgot to write her the tip. I said i did not paid you tip because you did not gave a proper itemized bill, how would i know that what exactly you charged us for the food we ate and how much did you charges us the tax. She made a irritating face and started abusing. We just left from there. This was worst experience I had and simple case of stealing money...
Read moreI have been to all Mexican restaurants in the area, and this place is definitely not one i would recommend. I have been here years ago, and i didn't like the food. This week i decided to give it a try again, and the food was okay. I personally, didn't like it. The service was horrible. The lady taking our order (who i believe is the owner) was rude. She seemed bothered when we asked about her specials. When i tried to suggest one of the dishes to my mom, the lady told me to let my mom talk and not make suggestions or she would take longer. So, i nicely told her that it was the first time my mom was at this place. I hoped she would be nicer after that, but no, she continued to be rude throughout the time we were dining there. She also charged us extra for the green and red sauce for the tacos. And said that everyone charges extra for these, which is not true. I have never had to pay for these. I don't mind paying extra if the food and service is good. But this was not the case at this place. I am definitely not...
