Food's pretty good, but like many Mexican restaurants it needs a new look, repair and better lighting.

Classic Friday night dinner for me. The staff are kind and make it feel like home. Food is amazing, I get the chimichangas... pretty much every time. Love this place and people :) Read more

Good food. Good service. They also have a small outdoor area. Service was a little slow, but not bad as long as you aren't in a... rush. Accommodating to larger groups. Read more

ABSOLUTELY THE BEST!! We moved to this area a year ago and haven't found GOOD Mexican food until NOW! We have already eaten... there many times in the few weeks we have moved to Hollymead. Their Guacamole IS THE BEST WE HAVE EVER HAD! Read more

We WILL be coming back here! Delicious food! There is something on the menu for everyone - a lot of options. I would say the... beer & wine options are average, as well as the mixed drinks (I'm not into margaritas), but I would have liked if the bar wasable to provide a bit more variety (that would have been the 5th star). Overall, we were happy with our choice for dinnertonight! For a family of 3, we spent under $50. Read more

Food is great and the service is far better here than at the Ruckersville location. Also the restaurant is bigger with a nicer... bar and better decor. The shrimp quesadilla was fantastic. The shrimp were cooked perfectly, not over done and rubbery. Read more
