"I like the atmosphere and they have pictures of their main dishes on the wall that are really good quality. Chips and salsa were quickly brought out to the table. Chips were warm and I had no complaints with the salsa. Quality of the meat was excellent. Tacos were kinda bland but maybe because the tortilla wasnt very warm. The pickled onions and cucumbers were a nice touch. That green salsa had a nice kick to it. Beans were excellent. Rice has vegetables which is awesome (tasted the same as many other mexican restaurants). The burrito was moist (good). Got the chicken flautas for my fiancé and she loved those (looked amazing too). Anyways i’ll be back"

"We decided to try a New Mexican Restaurant on the Avenue. It is fantastic! The guacamole was fresh and delicious! They had an option for steak nachos which was just meat and cheese…perfect…just how we like it! The meat was so tender and flavorful and the portion was abundant. I think it is my new favorite Mexican Restaurant in the QCA! You will have to check it out!"

"It's a Mexican restaurant in an old taco bell. Talk about serendipity. The level of attention to detail to the food was very refreshing. Obviously home made tortillas. Home made enchilada sauce and hand made salsas leave a lot of local competitors in the dust. Quite a hidden gem with authentic Mexican coke and a Tex-Mex vibe. As long as this level of quality is maintained, we will be back."
