Ohhh was this delicious! Service was fast & friendly. Interior had a good atmosphere but it was a little cramped. But the food was fantastic. We got the shredded chicken nachos and the shredded chicken bowl. The chicken was seasoned well and may be the best shredded chicken we've had. I was surprised that the nachos didn't come with the usual onions and peppers, but it was delicious all the same. The portions were great, I'll get an extra meal out of my plate.

This is absolutely my go-to Mexican restaurant! Terrific margaritas and a wonderful variety of food choices. I really like the Pacific Rim salad. (I know a salad sounds boring, but it's wonderful!!) I've been going here for decades and it's always wonderful.

I have been coming to this spot religiously for a couple of years now. The people, the food, the drinks, the atmosphere, and the service are top notch! It’s a perfect spot after work or on the weekend whether you come alone or with a friend. Everyone is friendly here and the margaritas are fabulous! If you visit once, you are bound to visit again and again.

The staff are extremely friendly. The food is top quality, they care about their work. I usually come in every day for 3 fish tacos that are always cooked to perfection and very well seasoned. I came in today and for wings. At first I was surprised at the price of 20 wings, but after I tasted them, I understood. They were so soft and hot. 15 minutes after I ordered l, they were still piping hot. And let me tell you.. those wings were so big I had leftovers. So I just put 6 into my air fryer and the sauce baked a crisp shell over the leftovers. By far, this place is well worth your money.

If you're expecting a Michelin starred restaurant, go somewhere else. This place is exactly what it is, an affordable, authentic Mexican restaurant. Margaritas are potent and delicious. Street tacos are yummy and worth every penny. We had a great experience and we will definitely be back

Been coming here ever since i was younger and they never disappoint. I usually get the fajita nachos or different burritos and are always really good. The margaritas are strong and tasty as well.
