Excellent all around. Stopped in on a whim. Hadn’t tried it before. But was pleasantly surprised by everything. Excellent food & service. Fun & colorful atmosphere, friendly and happy staff, and food was delicious! We’ll be back.

Pretty neat place- went on cinco de mayo. It was very busy so service was understandably slow but well worth it. Had a few combination plates and different margaritas, no complaints there. The staff were all very friendly and helpful and quick to clear the tables. There was a very cool celebration outside of the restaurant with music and a giant robot man!

Our first time here. First the staff was wonderful and the restaurant was very clean. I was overwhelmed with the beautiful presentation of the food. My husband and I both had Steak Fajitas. One of the best Spanish Rice side dish I have had in a very long time. Just a thank you to the staff and owners. We will be back often.

I’m so glad I asked our server if he recommended the langostino! They were some of the best I’ve had, not too salty but all the seasonings were perfect. My sister loved her mojarra, it had the perfect crunch. My mom loved the fish ceviche. But do yourself a favor and go with the langostinos, I’m still dreaming of them

When I first arrived it took at least 10 minutes before someone approached me so I can order. I am sorry to indicate this was the worst burrito suiza I have ever had. Moreover, I asked for a ground beef burrito and asked what comes inside . The waiter who was cordial told me there was beans sour cream tomatoes and such. I told him to omit the lettuce. Thus, once the burrito, which took only a three minutes which was odd, came to my table and the burrito didn’t look right. Meaning that the melted cheese on top of the burrito was shifted more to the right and not evenly throughout the top of the burrito . Plus it wasn’t even ground beef nor any sour cream as the waiter told me . Once I took a few bites, the burrito was cold . It was inedible . I told the waiter and he talked to his manger on duty . Much to my surprise the waiter told me there was nothing he could do . I was like really but I ate way less than half of the burrito . He got his manager and he was very rude and told me “ you should have told us sooner” . I was like look I have come here a few times and you even waited on me and you know I get this all the time . He was still reluctant in making another burrito but gave me half off . As a result , I left the uneaten burrito and I told him I am never coming back in your establishment again . Folks, this is not good service at all and unfortunately I will never go back because slow and lack of service and the quality was just subpar at best .

This Mexican restaurant deserves credit. Despite prices being a little high. Their food flavor and quality is GREAT! It’s hard to fold good MEXICAN food around CL, LITH, Algonquin, so this is a gem to find. Staff is always super friendly! Cannot recommend this place more

Best Mexican food in this area! Love the chicken tacos and enchiladas. Yummy mole sauce too. Friendly service but slow. I’m assuming they’re under-staffed these days like a lot of other restaurants.
