So good! Fair prices. Cute little restaurant could use some help in a few areas such as front dining room and bathrooms but dining space is nice. Luxury booths are beautiful and comfortable. Friendly staff. Street tacos were not on menu but were so good!

First time eating here and it was great! I mixed their hot salsa with mild salsa for chips. Added heat to the mild The chicken flautas have good flavor. Food came out hot. My friend ordered steak fajitas, they had good flavor too. Waitress was nice, checked on us periodically. Will return again!

Absolutely the best and most AUTHENTIC Mexican food I’ve had in Midland. Both ladies are super nice and the food comes out fast and hot. The fried food is not greasy at all, vegetables are nice and fresh. This is definitely the only place I want to get Mexican food from.

My food was amazing however my girlfriends food was terrible. And we never saw our server again to let her know. So my girlfriend only ate one a taco. When the waitress came back we asked not to be charges for her part of the meal and instead be charged for the taco because everything on her plate was terrible. They refused and said next time we need to ask for samples of stuff.

My boyfriend and I went here because most places were without power in Midland and we couldn’t find parking at Pizza Sam’s. Literally the best place we could have stumbled across last night! Our first time there and it definitely will not be the last. It was incredible. The place was super busy, and still the service was outstanding. We were very pleased. Very good food, great service and the price was perfect!

Wasnt greeted when my fiance and i walked in. Alotta kids just wandering around! Our waitress seemed lost, she took my fiances order and then started to walk away without taking mine.. hellooo…bathrooms were filthy trash overflowing…Not sure how a review of 4.8 was achieved but not in my opinion! Had the carne asada tacos, the meat was dry and very small portions! I have lived out west and had great Mexican food but this was far from it! I only gave a 2 becuz we were very hungry.. .Will not be coming back to this place nor will i recommend to anyone! The chicken fajitas my fiance ordered were mostly onions and peppers hardly any chicken at all!!
