This place is legit! The margaritas are so delicious that I want to weep with joy. Shrimp ala Diabla is my JAM. This restaurant is about as unpretentious as it gets and I love it. Go here and support these nice folks!

Too dark inside the restaurant. Was offered chips and salsa while waiting and it seemed it was courtesy of the house since it was a really small basket only to see it charged on our ticket.

The food was tasty and it had been made to appeal to the local taste.

The food here was just ok. My daughter got enchiladas with green sauce, she’s asked for the red sauce but was told it’s really spicy so she went with the green. The green sauce ended up being so spicy she couldn’t eat it, ended up scrapping off the sauce. She’s not good with spicy food, but I have a better tolerance and I even thought it was too much. My tacos were ok but nothing great. The server rarely checked on us and wasn’t friendly at all. We definitely won’t be going back.

Nothing amazing here. It was pretty lackuster. Very standard Mexican and was pretty surprised that the ratings were as high as they were on Yelp. I tried the Burrito al Pastor and it was much smaller than one particular review made it out to be and it was served cut in half. With nothing else. A very odd presentation. The interior, consisting of rice, beans and a mystery pork product were cold. I’ll try some other places next time.
