This is a really good Mexican spot! If I had to categorize it, it’s much closer to SoCal Mexican than it is “east coast”. There’s alot more herb flavors than the other spots around town.

Food was amazing, wide variety of choices for Mexican food. Ranging from fajitas, to carne asada and tacos, they have all the hispanic classics. Service was fast, convenient, and ideal. Free refills, which was a nice surprise. The atmosphere was great as well, they include traditional decorations, horses, fancy lights… it felt as if it were a 5 star restaurant. Overall, a great experience.

On a Friday night it wasn’t too busy. The food came out quickly. The flavor of the food was on par with most of the other Mexican restaurants in town. The prices are a little higher but the decor is more updated. The wait staff was attentive without being intrusive.

First time husband and I have been here. The service was so polite. The food came out quick and they were quick with refills for drinks. The food tasted really good as well. Chips tasted as if they are freshly made there. I’m so happy my son said he wanted tacos and we tried this place out. We would definitely be returning to eat there again. Highly recommend trying this place.

The food was great! The service was impeccable. Prices decent too, serving sizes great. The chips were a little too thick for me. A little too loud for me, but it is the weekend. Such great food

Food and service was good, except maybe a miscommunication? We went to dinner here for my son’s second birthday because its his favorite. We told them it’s his birthday and if they did anything for that. They said they sing happy birthday and that’s it. I gave the okay and enjoyed our food, but we never got to see them sing to him. They brought our check and didn’t even mention anything of it.

We went on Cinco de Mayo and only had a 40 minute wait. They were super busy but were getting people in and out quickly. Fast service, great meal.

I was born and raised in Tucson Arizona, I grew up on good authentic Mexican food. Have lived here in North Carolina about a year and have been unable to find anything the reminds me of home. As of today my search has come to an end, the food here is delicious. If you are looking to get a taste of true authentic Mexican food this is the place to go. I will be going back without a doubt. The staff were great and everything was amazing.
