From the moment we walked in and were greeted and seated this place impressed. The decor was stylistic and the leather booths very comfortable and spacious. House made chips and salsa were brought with menus and when we weren’t ready to order when our server (Chuy) came back to the table he refilled both with a smile and told us to take our time.

Service was very prompt. The food was really good. It’s the prettiest burrito I’ve ever eaten!

Love it! The food and drinks were perfectly and beautifully done! One of the best Mexican restaurants I’ve been to. The Chori Pollo features chicken breast that was so damn flavorful and juicy! I couldn’t believe it was breast. The salsa was amazing as well. The drink is Coco Loco, very tropical and so fun to drink with the tajin rim.

Good food, not too expensive. The burritos were huge and delicious. Good family atmosphere.

Good food drinks, service, and prices! Visited on Thursday night and every seat was full. I didn’t see anyone waiting all evening but also saw an empty table. Food was good, we had the Banderas Burrito and the Chicken tacos authentically made with cilantro and onions. We also had margaritas, the Cadillacs as well as a blended strawberry, and both of those were good as well! I’m sure we will visit again!

A fun place to go! Good food. An excellent wait staff that were very engaging. We sat outside. Never went inside.

My family and I love this place. Great food, drinks, and service! If you are ever in Lodi, this is a place to try!

Absolutely delicious. Food is very similar to their other Verona location. You don’t always get that lucky, sometimes one location is better than another. Perfect spot for a date night. Lovely patio if you want a quieter spot.

Have gone 5+ times food is always great. Vegetables in burritos taste like actual vegetables unlike other places. Always quick for food and always warm. Love their chips and salsa. It’s our go to Mexican restaurant.

Was excited for this place because of the good reviews … Unfortunately I did not have even close to a good experience. Food came out probably 2 minutes after we put our order in and came out cold so obviously it was not made fresh. Soda tasted very watered down. And the waiter dropped off our bill without saying anything only a couple minutes after we got our food. And then continued to ask us if we were still eating while we were still eating…every couple minutes. Ruined the experience and gave me major anxiety.
