I eat here nearly once a week after church. Food is really good. Very busy on Sundays for sure around lunch hour. Prepare to wait for a short time.

My husband and I went here around 2pm, and had a late lunch. The waiter was friendly and very attentive. I only got a picture of my husband's meal, which was fish. It was grilled with delicious seasoning and had a buttery sauce that could be poured onto it. It came with 2 pieces of fish and a half of an avocado. I had a bite of it, and loved it! Very reasonably priced too!

Everything was fine. Food was hot and delicious. The only problem was the cook gave me the wrong enchiladas but the server got it fixed.

This was a great place. Everything was fantastic. We had the charro beans and they were flavorful. The cheese puff was crispy and the cheese was good. We had an assortment of enchiladas and all flavors were good. The hot sauce was exceptional. Highly recommend!

We have been going here for years. It is always good. We just went about four days ago. Incredible food I had the street tacos and my wife had enchilada Verde’s. We also had queso and way too many chips. Great place to come Atmosphere is awesome seating that’s great.

This is our go to place. We stopped on our way from Tyler to our homes out East. Having lived in NM for 18 years, never had I had corn tortillas as fresh and tasty as they served yesterday. If you know what to order, it can be much more than "TexMex." Try the Carnitas. There are traditional offerings if you look that are delicious. We mentioned that the Borracho beans were too salty. Yesterday they were perfect. The prices are reasonable. The service is great and the staff work as a team to get your drinks, deliver fresh, warm salsa and chips, then get your order to you hot from the kitchen. They are consistent and friendly. I also have enough left overs for additional meals.
