We came here on our first night in Florida for a soccer tournament. We didn't know where to go but Mexican food sounded good. This place was perfect! Quick service, affordable food and tasted great. Highly recommend a visit if you are in the area!

I usually take out but the dine- in experience was fantastic. The rejuvenated and expanded set up is great and feels even more authentic. They even have a couple that plays live music. The fare from appetizers to entrees was superb. The servers were attentive, informative, and friendly. It's not inexpensive but moderately priced but well worth it.

Nice quick Mexican place with a full bar. Sat outside since the weather was permitting. Has nice margaritas, had a Michelada and some tequila shots. Tambien es un buen lugar si solo hablas espanol, porque todos alla hablan. I really liked the elote. The place is kinda small but it wasn't packed and there's great outdoor seating. In a plaza so there's handicap parking and all that stuff. Next time I'm going to try the Camarones al Diablo or the Ceviche, but stayed basic with carne asada tacos de maiz con cilantro y cebolla.

We were so excited to eat at the new location, and we were not disappointed. The Chimichangas and Burritos were fantastic! So tasty and very generous portions. The atmosphere was relaxed tonight, but with that nice big bar I'm sure there is going to be some partying going on this weekend! Outside dining area is spacious with large oak trees and beautiful lighting. Prices are very reasonable.

Hands down one of the best experiences I've had dining out in recent memory. Our server is the bomb! They accommodated our dog on the outdoor patio. Brought her water and grilled chicken in the cutest bowl. The food is delicious and the margaritas were great. Next time I'm in town I will definitely be back. Love the vibe of this place, very relaxed.
