    Love the guacamole, the salsa verde with a hint of pineapple is very special too! Best Mexican food I ever had! Will be coming back!

    I like the three different salsas they bring out when you sit down. I also liked my avocado and spinach enchiladas, respectively.

    Best Fajitas in Knoxville! But get the Papas (mashed potatoes) as a substitute for the charro beans...

    Food is good. Didn't enjoy waiting with our 3 yr old grandson for 20 minutes and the gal at the desk after the manager came over took the people that came in 10 minutes after us. Won't be back
