Great service, food and atmosphere. We walked in on a Thursday night and were seated fairly quickly. Service was very quick and food was excellent! Big portions, mole sauce was delicious. Cute duck pond to the side was nice too. Wish you had t shirts though so we could buy some!

One of my favorite restaurants in Cave Creek. This place is quite the experience! The entrance is beautiful and has a huge courtyard pond with ducks, turtles and birds. Very beautiful decor and definitely gives you an authentic feel! The food was excellent and the service was amazing. This place gets busy and parking is somewhat limited. There’s an additional dirt lot in the back for overflow parking. Highly recommend you check this place out for good Mexican food!

Awesome atmosphere and food! The salsa and chips were very good, and came with 3 sauces -regular was excellent, but also had a good avocado salsa. Definitely make reservations before, the place was packed. I had chicken enchilada with mole sauce.

Pollo Fundido was amazing! Three different salsas with chips. All good! Our waitress has worked there 16 years and she was awesome! There’s an unexpected large pond in the middle of restaurant that is nice to sit by. First time here and is now my favorite Mexican restaurant.

Atmosphere and food was perfect. Very romantic and fun place. We got there on a Saturday for an early lunch at 11 am. By the time we left there was a wait list. The place is large but fills up fast.

Loved the atmosphere of this place. Wonderful to eat outside yet inside. You hear the birds and see the ducks, goose, turtles, and more. We sat outside by one of the big yellow shades. It was a little hot/bright in the sun, but I didn’t mind. The staff was really nice from the hostest to the bartender to the waiter to the assistants to the bus boy. The margaritas were really good. I had the Pollo fundidado, which I highly recommend. The small portion was more than enough. My wife got the fish tacos. The fish choice was Mahi Mahi. The fish was really good, but all the other stuff on the tacos overpowered the fish.

Fun place for Mexican food and especially out if town guests. Make reservations in advance to make sure you get the table or area of choice. The patio is mostly shaded with nice views of the pond. In doors is louder but sitting next to the pond windows is great with smaller children. The pond has ducks, fish and turtles. It is an oasis in the desert. The food is excellent. The portions are huge. I like to get the Carne Asada Burrito with the jalepeno cream cheese. It is large enough to share. The margaritas sneak up on you so plan to have a DD. The fried ice cream is a must and save room for it. Never have had a bad meal.
