    This place is really good. Love their salsa, both the warm and the cold salsa and their vanilla bean flan is amazing. Service was a bit slow though.

    The queso is the best I've ever had. I got that with the steak fajitas and have since become a happier person.

    I really enjoyed the sizzling fajitas with herb grilled vegetables. They are vegan and still have amazing flavor! With the cilantro lime rice and black beans it made a great combo. Highly recommended!

    I had the chicken relleno and it was delicious! Hubs had Mexican meatloaf & daughter had kids cheeseburger which they enjoyed. Staff was very attentive, highly recommend this one.

    Watch for the up-sell to the signature margarita. It is $12 but not on the menu. Also, double check your bill if you have any coupons. We have been here several times and always have to remind them
