Pleasantly surprised by this restaurant! The food was absolutely amazing authentic cuisine. We went on the hottest day of the year, and I’m pretty sure they didn’t have air conditioning? And only one fan, but aside from that, the food was absolutely amazing. And the service was pretty good too!

Amazing service and food! We were greeted with warm tortilla chips and salsa followed by huge portions of delicious food. The service was fast, but we didn’t feel rushed. All in all a great place would definitely come again.

My fiancée and I visited around 2pm today and had an amazing time. It wasnt too busy and our waitress was very kind and quick with her service! The chips are good quality, on the thicker side. We tried the wet burrito and it was AMAZING! It’s so huge we were able to get half to go and anyone could tell it was made with fresh ingredients. I do regret not trying the salsa, since I’m sure it’s awesome. Next time we’re in Michigan City we’ll definitely have to stop by again ☺️

Best and most authentic restaurant I’ve been to in a long while. Highly recommend the shrimp chimichanga with a side of the house spicy chili sauce. I also ordered a side of guacamole and it was spot on for flavor and the avocados used were perfectly ripe.

I had steak fajitas and it was fabulous, very tasty. I love there food. I ordered a giant burrito dinner to go and it was HUGE. Been there 3 times and am definitely going back. The only thing I didn’t like was they gave us cheap plastic silverware to eat with,,that was very hard to eat with.

Very friendly and very clean. Fast service as well. Food was delicious. I am very picky about my Mexican food and this place was amazingly good. Large amount of food. You will not leave this place hungry. Great pick for lunch.

We dine Mexican several times per week & on a road-trip were delighted to discover this local gem! Authentic, high-quality meals, prepared w/ above-average expertise. We enjoyed superior service. The seating is broken down, so lost points on atmosphere.
