    Super busy! Way too small a place for amount of traffic - usually huge wait Fri/Sat nights - 45min for 1-person. Super worth it & very cost-effective. Favourites: Nachos, Chimichanga, Mexican Pizza!

    Bartenders are awesome. Food is amazing. Still can't choose a favorite because everything is delish. Cooks do a great job everytime. Have not been disappointed. The drinks are very good on top of it!

    Wow awesome! I love Mexican food and eat it all the time. And this place rocked! Have to pay for chips but $10 4 salsa guacamole n cheese is well worth it. Best guac ever. enchiladas are great!

    Little place. Patio out back. Everyone's really nice. Margaritas are great, and they are big. Nachos are excellent, huge, lots of fresh, shredded cheese (no cheese sauce). Good spot.

    Probably one of the best Mexican places I've been. All of the ingredients are farm fresh and the servers are super personable. The sizzling veggie fajitas didn't disappoint!

    If you dare try the Burrito Loco spicy monster burrito challenge. If you can eat this 18in long burrito in less than an hour it's free.

    Great local joint. Tough on seasonal folks used to more sedate dining but, worth the adjustment. Some wonderful fare plus wicked good margaritas.

    Eat inside where other patrons bump into you, your server will ignore you, and you get to kill your own cockroach as climbs down the wall next to you!

    Be sure to arrive before 10:30 on a friday night... Or the servers will give you 30 seconds to order your food. If time runs out... McDonalds is within walking distance
