Amazing! Their food is always flavorful. I had enchiladas Verde and house margarita enchiladas entree was good. I always like their rice and chicken bc it doesn’t taste water down (like a few other Mexican restaurant). The house margarita was on point. The Mexican corn was a little salty. I would have preferred it on the Cobb, but that wasn’t really communicated, so that’s our fault

Chips and salsa was the best part about his place. Was so disappointed in the food. Especially after waiting so long for it to come out. Took almost 2 hours to est here which is ridiculous just to grab some tacos and drinks. My husband ordered an appetizer which came out with our regular food. My sons fries were cold. The drinks were just ok. And they definitely were not busy. Went here on a tuesday and there was maybe 6 tables of small groups. First time here just to try something new and definitely will be the last

Following a food tour that left us craving more, we stumbled upon this establishment. Being a resident of Nashville, I’ve often found enchiladas here to be quite different from what I used to enjoy in New Mexico. However, taking a chance in Lexington proved to be a pleasant surprise. I dared to sample the enchiladas, and to my delight, I found myself appreciating the dish. The red sauce had a touch of sweetness, which was a tad unusual but far from unpleasant. On the other hand, my partner opted for the Barbacoa flautas, which turned out to be equally impressive. The satisfaction we derived from our meals left both of us content, making our experience at this place truly enjoyable.

Wish I had the name of our waitress so I could share it…. The place was pretty cool when walking in, unique to say the least… Get attitude started ok but she forgot and didn’t bring items we had to ask multiple times for and all that were charged on the bill, then when brought out she’d have an attitude about it, half the items she’s didn’t bring out and needed napkins so that was another issue with her…. Guac was average, lots of big cut tomatoes and onions… Shrimp tacos were good… The triple trey of the hot salsas were unique and had some great heat!! My kids and my wife and I loved the kids menu chicken tenders and fries lol… Might try this place again and if so get a different server

I look forward to going back here for lunch almost every week! The atmosphere is beautiful, the service is wonderful, and the dishes are amazingly delicious. Get the little tray of sauces, yum! The queso with chorizo is a great starter.

The first time I came here was for food, it was good, nothing special, but would consider coming back for Mexican with a different atmosphere. However, if there for a later dinner they do start removing tables for the club, which makes the dining experience awkward.
