“ Went for Menudo and was very pleased! The tripe was tender and cut into pieces small enough to fit on your spoon, unlike some places! Husband enjoyed the chicken mole! Good margaritas too! Back again in 2025. Menudo still wonderful! Husband tried the Super Burrito. It was huge and plenty for 2 or leftovers! Very good! Chunky guacamole was good too! ”
“ Hands down best Mexican restaurant in the area. Love the homey/relaxed atmosphere. Service was top notch. Highly recommend giving them a visit, they won’t disappoint. ”
“ Authentic mexican food in a family owned restaurant. The server, Sevena, spoke of her grandfather's recipes. A wide menu of choices, including gluten free options (celiac). We had enchiladas, tacos, cheese chile relleno and! A combo platter and all were excellent. They had a choice of a "chunky" guacamole, which was like an avocado salsa/salad. Unique and fantastic. A nice beer selection also. ”
“ Our first time here. Great food, awesome, in fact! Super fast service! The prices were very reasonable. We will be back many more times. ”
“ This place rocks. The nicest servers and some of the best Mexican food in the panhandle. Highly recommend the cheese chile rellano along with just about anything else they have on the menu. One bite of the amazing salsa they serve when you’re seated, and you’ll know you’re in for some quality food. ”
