The food at either location is always delicious. They have great street tacos and a variety of meat choices. The service is always prompt and attentive. I highly recommend.

This is hands down the best Mexican restaurant that I’ve eaten at since I was a child. I am 52 so this is a huge compliment that spans across decades and states in the country. The only thing that could be perceived as a negative for some is that it’s nothing fancy and the bathrooms are in rather poor condition but because of the quality and the price of the food I don’t even care! It’s that typical hole in the wall place that you find hidden ever now and then that makes you wonder how you lived without it your whole life!!??? Everything is made fresh. Nothing is microwaved. When they start you out with salsa let me tell you it is perfection! The cilantro and jalapeños and onions are countered with an acidity level that is hard to achieve. It’s not overly spiced and no cumin that I can taste. As far as ordering, I recommend the fajita chimichangas because they are EXCELLENT and they are HUGE. This with the grilled chicken breast, peppers and onions inside and a very generous amount of cheese dip smothered on the outside can’t be beat. I mean it’s just so much food with every entree that I don’t know how they are making money. This is why I forgive the bathroom situation! The waiter with the pony tail on top of his head is excellent and hilarious to communicate with. These people run their business with a servants heart which is becoming too rare. If you love good, FRESH ingredients then you have got to try this place in downtown Chattanooga. I love it!!!

I’ve been a personal chef and sous chef. The food here is amazing. Perfectly cut veggies, delicately sauteed chicken and meats. Beautifully presented. Authentic Mexican restaurant. Now my daughter and I will pick this restaurant first. Oh! And prices are good. Congrats to the chef!

We were looking for a laundromat to dry some clothes we brought with us on a trip. We were starving, so I went to get a take out menu to peruse while we waited for our clothes to dry. This place is next door to the laundromat, and is somewhat unassuming, but is knock your socks off good. I had the number 29 on the lunch menu, by far, one of the best Chile rellanos I’ve had and also one of the best tamales I’ve ever had. My wife had the fajita number 12 and that was one of the best she’s had.

This is a great restaurant for authentic Mexican food. They have plenty of parking and big portions. Always friendly, and they have a patio if you are a smoker. Great service, come see for yourself. Try it once and I guarantee you will be back time and time again.

This is the most wonderful place. My husband and I come here all the time and we always have a great experience. Food is inexpensive and they are very sweet. Food is also delicious and not run of the mill like you see in Chattanooga! Thankyou so much we love you all.
