4,5 for the food, Victor, our wairlter, was friendly and attentive. Great house margaritas and salsa, chips, and beandip. We had a #7 chili relleno & enchilada and veggie burrito. We recommend this family run restaurant!

OMG! This is one of my favorite Mexican restaurants in Colorado! It was so good, it brought me out of “review retirement” to let everyone know.

Our favorite eating place in Gunnison, been coming here for 15+ years. Love the outdoor dining, but indoors is fine, too if weather demands. The food is real Mexican family cuisine. Well prepared, tasty and attractive. Everything we’ve ordered has been excellent.

Wanted to go 5 star. Place is great, food was exceptional but our service just okay everyone was nice but our waitress may have had an off day (it happens and it got a little busy). Asked for the same thing 3 times to never get it, after not being ready to order in first few min didn’t return to ask again for like 25 min so was late for something then auto charged us 18% percent gratuity (I am actually okay with this normally but says for 5 or more people right on the receipt and we were only 4 and service wasn’t great maybe why she auto charged it). I will say the hostest and another gentleman that helped grab a few things were awesome so I think most service is normally good. Atmosphere, building even tables are cool too with a patio and plenty or parking right out front.

The staff were nice and hard working. The food was some of the worst Hispanic food I have had. Definitely seemed to come from a box with red sauce dumped on top. The atmosphere was packed and they choose to serve a larger number of folks for income then choosing to serve good food.

They have a delightful patio, which even on a warm summer day was a pleasant place to have lunch.

Amazing food! One of the best burritos I’ve ever eaten. Staff was friendly, polite and professional. And my cup never ran dry. Server brought chips, salsa, and refried beans before our drinks. Music was a little loud, but we ate out side on the patio in the shade. There is a full service bar and the margaritas looks great. I was the driver so did not partake.

We came in after the lunch crowd and ate in the open patio. It was a great atmosphere. Food and margaritas were tasty. Great service.
