Went on Cinco de Mayo so it was busy but they had a great system for managing carry out orders so it didn't interfere with the dine in customer. I was seated immediately. Everything was great, especially the salsa. I've been looking for a good Mexican restaurant on this side of town. I'll definitely return.

Love their food. Amazing salsa just hot enough. Extensive menu offers something for everybody. Found items to fit vegetarian diet. Arroz con Cameron is delicious. Generous portions--enough to take home for lunch. Staff is efficient and accommodating. Overall, an excellent experience.

Finding an authentic Mexican restaurant in the Carolinas has been a years long quest of mine. Love this place. Tacos Mexicanas taste just like they came from a taco shop on the border. the tamales were fantastic. Super fresh shrimp and salsa as well. This is a must visit restaurant. It doesn't.look like much for the street but we were pleasantly surprised.

We were visiting from out of town and googled Mexican restaurants near me. The pics of the food convinced us to give it try. When we pulled up the shopping mall gave us pause. We were SO glad we went in!!! From the start our server Brandon was cracking jokes and very welcoming. The salsa was so good! Guacamole was delicious! Peach margaritas tasted like fresh peach and not just flavoring. The steak in my burrito was so tender and flavorful! Chorizo queso was wonderful! Everyone was pleased with the meal and the service!! Would definitely recommend!!!
