He loved it & said it was the best he ever had! The staff was so friendly & the margaritas were so refreshing! I will return again soon!

Therese S.

Was greeted immediately upon arriving and seated with no delay. Once my meal was ordered it was delivered quickly piping hot. The menu is extensive and the food delicious. I had an extremely crispy, tender and overfilled Chimichanga that melted in my mouth. Can’t wait to go back!!!

Susan B.

Loved the queso and the salsa as a start! Had the shrimp Tacos on their homemade tortillas and they were stuffed with shrimp, black beans, corn and assorted deliciousness. Service was very friendly and quick. We will be back very soon!

Kelly S.

I got the shrimp tacos. Amazing. Great margaritas. Loved how different tacos have different salsas to top them. Like they think about how the food will pair. Not just coated mexi food in cheese.

Lea P.

We loved it! Great atmosphere, delicious food and a friendly staff. They forgot to bring our cheese dip but the food came so fast we really did not need it. We will be back! Can’t wait to try it for lunch.

Jason B.

Our meal was fantastic, and we will soon return. Our group’s entries included the El Fogon special, the zucchini boats, and tamales. The food is fresh, delicious, and reasonably-priced. The service is impeccable. In addition to an extensive lunch and dinner menu, the drink selection includes both current favorites and exciting new possibilities.
