I love the vibrant decor and my party of three raved about the food. I had carnitas, which I will have again on my next visit. My SIL had shrimp tacos and my brother had yummy burritos, but not especially photo worthy.

This is probably the best restaurant in Mount Vernon, in my opinion. The food is delicous and pretty authentic, the margaritas are great (I didn’t even get the largest option this time), and the atmosphere is enjoyable. The service is ok, but a bit slow, and it took me a while to flag down a waitress for more napkins. Though they were a bit busy when I first arrived for lunch. Still, kind workers and great food! I would definitely recommend this for the Mount Vernon area.

We went here on a Sunday evening and the place was packed but over half of the tables emptied right after we were seated. Even with most of the customers now gone it still took 40 minutes to get our food and I had to flag down the waiter to get it that soon. They forgot our cheese dip and after reminding them we didn’t get it until we were almost done eating. The food was good but I won’t go back. It’s too much of a hassle getting all of our food.

Very family friendly restaurant. Absolutely love the food, and they have great margaritas! Try the pineapple bowl if you go! You won’t be disappointed! The staff is always super friendly and it’s such a fun atmosphere. Very pretty decor, the chairs and tables are super cute!

The food was great, but it took about an hour (and asking about where it was) to get it. And why was my ingredients just sitting on top of the tortilla, what a mess?? And during that time of waiting they never brought us our queso cheese and again we had to ask twice about it. When our food finally came to us the women who brought it out slammed it on the table and acted mad at us.

Even the refried beans are delicious. The steak on my fajitas taco lunch special was flavorful and tender. The tortillas were nice and thin and the good was hot.

The place is In the middle of Town in Mount Vernon. It’s cute inside. I ordered Maya Burrito with chicken…it came to the table pretty normal style with beans and rice. Sadly I think the burrito was a bit dry and under seasoned meat. Could use a sauce in it to moisten it. Beans and rice was okay but lil runny for beans. In all an okay place fast served food just lil dry.

What can I say… this place never ceases to amaze me. I come and eat here at least 3 times a week, and it NEVER disappoints me. The servers are fantastic… the food is impeccable… and the prices are right… it’s gets pretty busy most nights… but be patient…I promise it’s worth the wait.

The service was excellent and the food too boot. Everything was good and bringing out two levels of salsa was a great touch.

Very good place to eat. Everyone there are pleasant and friendly. Liz was very helpful with everything and answer all our questions. The Enchiladas were amazing. Hope to come back again soon.
