Suzanne Chick
Cozy, little Mexican restaurant with great atmosphere. I love the music, decor and most of all the food! They serve generous portions of authentic Mexican food. I have had the pleasure of eating many tacos here, pozole and most recently the Durango Especial which is grilled chicken and shrimp in a light cheese sauce. Delicious!

Anyone with celiac (like me) or gluten intolerance- be cautious about the tacos because I received my shrimp taco dinner and they appeared to not be on corn tortillas- I called and they said they didn’t know if they were corn or flour but they appear to be flour. Unfortunately I had to throw the whole thing away, I was offered an apology but no solution, this was my first time ordering with them so I didn’t know flour tortillas were an option on their tacos. Also the taco dinner does come with rice and beans, that’s not specified on their online menu or doordash.

Picked up food for me and my dad on 7-15-23. I thought my Sope dinner was excellent. I don’t know about the chicken or steak because I’m very picky about meat but the ground beef is amazing. It’s very tender and flavored with just the right amount of spices. I will definitely be back to try some tacos next.

Staff was unfriendly and made it clear we were not wanted. The steak was chopped so fine it could have been ground beef and tasted awful. No salsa, no sour cream, no rice, no beans, even though it was listed as included on the menu.

placed order to go I ordered chip and salsa (2.50) not worth it the salsa was great but they did not give enough of it I still had a full bag of chips left. I ordered 2 burrito’s 1 steak and 1 pork both needed more meat there was more beans and rice than meat. might give this place 1 more chance because the salsa was that good. but overall very disappointed ( this was my first time going here and I was excited)

Absolutely delicious! The smell when you first walk in is amazing. The brisket sandwich and the pulled pork sandwich were both amazing, as well as the homemade BBQ sauce. The baked mac, baked beans, and potato salad were also all amazing and homemade. Definitely recommend, and we will be back!

I like traditional Mexican style tacos and this was really good. I ordered guacamole. It was fresh and chunky which I love! It is priced a little higher than I am used to paying but affordable enough and fresh.
