Best AUTHENTIC Mexican food in the area. Great family and we will ALWAYS chose here!

Customer Service is severely lacking. They prefer to just watch their shows and not build a repor with the customer. We ordered a burrito and tortas. Both dishes the meat tasted like fish. When we brought it to the lady’s attention she just scoffed at us that she doesn’t cook fish. We paid for our cokes and left. To never return. Decatur is running out of restaurants to try.

Not impressed with the food or the service. The lady that greeted us looked very irritated that she had to step away from the television show she was watching to seat us or at least tell us where we could seat ourselves. Food showed up quickly, but it smelled like fish even though we both ordered steak items, and the salsa tasted more like a marinara sauce than a salsa. One more restaurant on my never again list for Decatur.

1st time visit. Great food. The tacos was amazing and the service was very good also. Drinks never went empty. The ice cream was good and got to talk about the Cactus plants out front.

It’s rare to find al pastor in a lot of Mexican places, so it’s my go-to whenever I see it. Pretty decent here. Nice wait staff, and unbelievably fast at 11:50a. Also, Mexican Coke products in a glass bottle.

I am writing this review while sitting in the restaurant because I might forget to review this exceptional place. The food here is very authentic and the attention to detail with the presentation, spices, and taste are above any other mexican restaurant around. This is a family owned restaurant so their heart and soul go into making the food and boy you can tell. I will definitely start eating here more often. Very highly recommended.

Love the Al Pastor tacos

Food is good, but the cleanliness has definitely gone downhill overtime. The restaurant is cluttered, and there was no soap in the restroom.
