Testimonials

On 2/14/2024 Ian Knights had this to say:
We came here as a large group of family and friends recently and we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Someone had already ordered a large pitcher of margarita which went down very well indeed. I liked the fact that there were large bowls of plain nachos and various dips & salsas to get the taste buds going. I wasn't really sure what to order but as I wanted something that would be extra hot & spicy, the busy young waitress suggested that I try the prawns in a chili sauce. Perfect. The dish came also with some fried beans and rice. It lived up to its promise. All delicious. When the margaritas ran dry I moved on to Miller Lite beer. All in all a great evening was had by one and all.

Great free standing place to dine near interstate exit and local hotels. Pretty decor, architecture, tabletops, and chairs. So many things on the menu. Mostly booth seating indoors, but we did request and get seated at a table. Cute patio adjacent to indoor restaurant. A bit of a language challenge, but service was very good and prompt. Our meals were generous and tasty. Requested a Paloma to drink, and waiter did not understand me, but made a point of asking the young bartender who knew exactly what to prepare. The Nacho Fajitas were a unique entree that I would definitely order again. Muy delicioso.
