Great food. Great service. Friendly. Efficient. Good margaritas. Chips and salsa within 30 seconds of sitting down, margaritas with 2 minutes of ordering and food within 5 minutes of ordering. This place is fast.

This place astounds me. Nearly everyone I know knows about and raves over how good this place is; and it is normally packed. Yet after going 10+ times I have never had to wait at all to get a table. You will be seated immediately, and the server will be right behind you.

I loved this restaurant. Went for lunch with a friend. It wasn’t packed, had a great menu, and the food was good. Guac was okay – not a lot of flavor though.

Not recommended. We had an issue with the cleanliness of this location. We at first moved seats due to a smell, but when the smell was also present at the new booth we realized it was the smell of dirty rags which they used to clean the seats and (gasp!) the menus. Uhg. We did mention it to the staff, but a manager did not visit to address our concern. We did continue and eat there despite this, and the food tasted good, but I can’t imagine returning in the near future. For restaurants, there should be a separate rating for cleanliness.

Always good food. Fast service. Several of us from my office come for lunch about once a week, servers remember us andour orders. Can get in eat and back to the office in an hour and not have to rush. Definitely a great place to grab a quick bite and it’s good and very reasonable priced.

Overall fairly pleasant experience, many of the lower reviews came before the restaurant underwent a large overhaul and settled many problems with it. Just make sure to check the age of the review before you decide against going here for a good bite to eat at a pretty cool hole in the wall restaurant.

This is a very good Mexican restaurant in Knoxville in Turkey Creek. I had the cheese enchiladas and very pleased with the cheese taste, thickness, consistency, and smell. I was at another restaurant in Chattanooga and the cheese was horrible with to thick hard taste that almost chocks you. So I was very pleased to find this place while traveling. The drinks are great too but the best part is the food is reasonably priced compared to other restaurants. So, over all great price, food, driniks, and fast friendly service here. Give them a try you won’t be disappointed.

Great restaurant and food. Seems small inside but I got a to-go order. Very friendly staff and atmosphere. I’d go back.
