The first time I went the waiter was horrible, he didn’t check on us and screamed from the front door was we good. The employees was preoccupied with conversation and interacting with regulars like everything else wasn’t there. The food was okay. Rate 1/5 stars

We love this place. Great Tex-Mex flavors. Big extensive menu. Good drinks. Good service, everyone has always been very friendly with us. This place gets busy busy during peak dining hours. Good beans and rice builds a great base to everything else they make. California Burrito, Carnitas, Crispy Taco, Enchiladas, and Fajitas are all things we have tried. They serve a unique white dip along with chips and salsa, we love that too.

I am passing through Roanoke Rapids, NC as it’s the midpoint of a hellish 21-hr journey. Not feeling keen to eat yet more fast food we came here for dinner and were totally surprised as to how GOOD the food was. I usually don’t even like Mexican style rice and beans whatsoever… but this place? I don’t know what they put in it but it was so good I finished my plate.

We found this spot as we headed home from SC. We wanted delicious authentic Mexican and this place delivered. The waitress was quiet but attentive. The pork carnitas were divine as were the chicken fajitas. The few extra minutes drive off 95 is so worth it. Thank you!

My family of 6 has been here a few times and we really like it. We tried another local place with a similar rating, and we definitely prefer this restaurant. The white sauce, salsa, and cheese dip are all good. Everything we have ordered so far, we have enjoyed with the exception of my youngest kids getting a kids meal that included fries, and they didn’t like the fries and said they were too salty (both times they tried them). We have enjoyed the food and the service, and this is our favorite Mexican restaurant in town!
