One of my favorite haunts in Tosa. Great service in a very friendly atmosphere. Try the BBQ chicken burrito and the fish fry tacos.

Jesse Jeffers
To start off I want to say this review has no reflection on the service – the server was great and the food came out fast. However, the food itself was not very good. The chips were about a 4/10; very bland and had that “cardboard” flavor some chips have. The salsa was about a 5.5/10. Not terrible, but again not a lot of flavor which could have been caused by chips. I ordered the “burritos” off the menu that come with 3 small burritos with meat of your choice and rice and beans. The burritos had less quality than frozen burritos from the grocery store, but you could tell the chicken was seasoned well (overall a 5/10); the beans we okay (6/10), and the rice was good (7/10). The best thing I got was a side of grilled veggies that were extremely tasty (9/10)! Overall, it just did not hit the spot. Everything lacked flavor besides the veggies. Also, there was 0 phone service in there, which since I was eating by myself made the atmosphere worse. Also did not feel like what I got was worth $20 (water to drink), but I understand food pricing and what it takes to run a business. Was hoping for a good, local, authentic Mexican cuisine nearby and this just isn’t it for me.

Second time here, won’t be the last. Sat at the bar both times and the bartenders were super friendly and very knowledgeable about the menu. The Guac is fantastic, Salsa is so fresh and all the good is superb! Margaritas hit just right. I cant wait to try more of the menu!

Their food is fantastic. Its extremely solid, tasty Mexican food for a very good value. The service is fast and friendly. The atmosphere is a little low end honestly speaking, but I personally find the small, family style restaurant charming. Would definitely recommend. By far the best Mexican food around. Don’t miss out on this gem.

I did not appreciate the Bartenders Sarcastic Attitude when I walked in the door, the dining room was empty, I was just trying to be friendly with a little small talk, I can be a bull in a China shop though, I probably could adjust my own attitude a bit. Our Server was friendly and fast, the chips and salsa were on the table right away, and I sure was grateful for that. Our food was pretty good and plentiful, my Steak Tacos were good and hot, most of the food was not really that hot, it came out of the kitchen fast though. Sixty dollars seemed a little steep for dinner, we had two appetizers, two entrees and one soda. Thank goodness we has a coupon!

My husband ordered steak tacos for me for carry out. He’s vegetarian so I just asked that he get me something with carne asada. I got these flour tortilla roll ups with bbq brisket. It was fine quality, but weird. The tacos were super sweet and messy. The salsa, guac, and crema it came with didn’t make sense with super sweet bbq. Not sure if that is how these were supposed to be, but the flavor combo was bizarre.

We go here all the time. An unassuming, unpretentious gem. Friendliest service in the entire village. Shredded beef tacos, tamales, and the customizable nachos are standouts on the menu but I’ve loved everything I’ve tried. Lovely patio too.

Nice small Mexican restaurant in the village of Wauwatosa. Food is good. Surprisingly the Tuesday taco specials are larger than most places! I ordered 4 thinking that they were the typical small ones. Took 2 home.

Great food (definitely get generous portions!) and a good atmosphere, what more is there to say?

Jim Poulakos
Mexican food at a bar. Ordered chimichangas. Got 3 in an order. Overcooked. Each about the size of a third of a hot dog with almost no filling. Rice was flavorless. Salsa was good.
