We went there based on tripadvisor reviews and proximity to our hotel. The food was excellent, the restaurant quriky and great fun and the fresh maragaritas are absolutley amazing.

My husband was grumpy when we pulled up, by all appearances his wife had chosen a dive, but when the food came we were both very pleased! Sweet and spicy are our favorite combo, and the ingredients were top-notch. My husbands parents came from across the border and we love this authentic Mexican with a twist. Highly recommend!

Food and service was excellent on a slow Monday night. The Dragon Cerviche is not to be taken lightly, it took two caprehinas to put out the flames, but was oh-so-worth it.

Best cerveche anywhere according to my wife, who orders it every time we go(over 10 times).I like the Caifiornia Burrito, which has a little bit of everything Mexican in it. Most times we go it is not crowded, which we like, but last time on a Friday night, it was packed at the bar and overflowing into the dining rooom.... More

Chips and salsa were good. We also ordered guacamole was also tasty. My husband had chicken fajitas. It was a nice serving and tasted good. I had tortilla soup. This had lots of chicken breast and was very good. We were there for a late lunch and the only ones in the restaurant so they waiter was very attentive. The... More

Good chips and salsa, but pretty bland burrito/tamale combo meal. Music was loud and the lady behind the bar was not especially friendly or helpful.
