  This has been my favorite restaurant for years. Sadly i moved further away...it was practically in my back yard. The food is good value and the service fast and friendly. Stop by and grab a bite, I recommend the chile Colorado burrito!

  I've actually been to this restaurant a couple times. When me and my family lived in the area this was  one my dad's favorites!
  
  The spicy salsa is good, defiantly not too hot by any means. I just wish they brought you more the half of the small container full of salsa.
  
  The fajita nachos are really good, but I thought the taco beef was bland. They put chihuahua cheese on their tacos which is really good, I think it could make a great queso as well!
  
  The restaurant look a lot bigger than it really is, and the service is always good! I just recently went on a Saturday and a margarita pitcher was $11 - good for 5 margaritas.

  Food was good and fresh. The portions were good. So, worth your money. Staff very friendly. The only thing( maybe I'm too picky) , it was super quiet. Need some music and make it sound more lively. Other than that, it's a nice place with good food.

  Typical Mexican restaurant, like many others. This one is very small and located across the street from an El Nopal so it's not very busy. But great daily and lunch specials on food and drinks! Today was 2 for 1 margaritas.
  
  Chips and salsa are great! Lunch menu is unbeatable for an inexpensive meal. They also have a lunch reward card, ask for one! They are usually in the Val PAC coupons mailed to your home. The service is SUPER fast!
  Waiter was not super friendly, but order was correct and fast!
  
  My favorite is the chile relleno, best in town!!

  We were headed to Iroquois, for a concert. We had just learned our first choice, for food, was closed for the evening.
  We decided to go for Mexican.
  The staff was very friendly. The beers were cold. The food was good. And, it was inexpensive.
  They have a mild and spicy salsa. The spicy salsa was very good, and there are hot sauces on the tables, so you can make it even hotter, if you like.
  They are not stingy, with the chips and salsa.
  I had the chicken fajita salad and I really liked it. It wasn't huge, so I was able to almost finish it.
  One of my friends had the taco salad and she liked it a lot.
  I am not sure what everyone else had, but they were all pleased.
  My husband had the tamales. I am a little picky, about tamales. I tasted his and the tamale was good; not dry. But, I didn't care for the Brown sauce they had on top. Maybe it was mole, but I usually like mole. If I got them, I'd ask for salsa and queso, on the side, and no sauce.
