This restaurant is hands down the best authentic Mexican food I have ever had, without being in Mexico. The owners and all of their employees are all so friendly and welcoming. They make you feel like family!! We came here two days in a row because it was so good. We have the #1, #2, & #15. Then went back today for Pozole!!! It’s all so amazing and delicious!!

definitely will not waste any more money here!!! The food was just awful!!! Salsa was bitter and nasty, chips were stale, couldn’t even finish eating out getting half in our systems – it was absolutely terrible. I suppose if you drink alcoholic beverages here you can’t tell how bad the food is ‍♀️.

The service was good!! The food was terrible!! I’m still dealing with it two days later!! It was deep fried fish twice!! The food was cold and you can’t tell because it’s dark!! The server was good but again the food sucked!! BAD!! Came here only to eat something off the freeway on a road trip!!

Great Mexican restaurant with a good selection of drinks. The staff is courteous and helpful. They answered all questions patiently. One of our guests had a Jalapeno Margarita, but didn’t like it as much. Their green salsa doesn’t have spice and isn’t tangy. So add lemon and jalapenos. They have an off-menu potato taco.
