Have dined here many times. One of my favorite Mexican places in Fredericksburg. I only wished they served the molcajete dish... like the other places in the area. Service is always friendly and food comes out pretty quick. Read more

Overall experience; fantastic! Salsa is the best I've had with the free chips anywhere. Cadillac Margarita was great and strong... and $14.99 for jumbo 32oz. 3 tacos were $3.75! With all the a la carte menu items along with the add on-s, you can customizeyour order anyway you want and the prices are super reasonable. I took the Shrimp Cocktail at 12.99 and added on 6 shrimp for4.00 and the shrimp were large and delicious. It was the never ending shrimp bowl. I didn't drink the sauce or anything, justscooped out the shrimp and some of the pico de gallo and look at the difference in the level of the glass, almost all shrimpjust to give you an idea of the generous portion. I wasn't counting but I would guess around 18 or so shrimp. Best shrimpcocktail ever, can't wait to go back. Tons of value for the money. beef hard shell tacos are cheaper than taco bell for cryingout loud. I can't believe I am only trying this place for the first time this past weekend. The place was packed on a Sundayaround 1:00. IF I knew how much shrimp was going to be in the cocktail, I would not have ordered the tacos. What a great mealfor $21.00. Ate like a King. I just wish it had a bar. 6 stars!!! Went back and Got the 3 hard tacos for $3.75 x 2 and seepics for the results Read more

Locals favorite for Mexican food. Multiple trips here. Staff are masked up and attentive. Place is clean and the food is... reasonably priced. Fried beef Chimmy dinner and shrimp quesadilla lunch item. Both were served very hot and each had ample sourcream/guacamole/lettuce/tomato toppings. Rice with corn/peas and refried beans are outstanding! Other Mexican dining options inthe area do not even come close to the quality of the food here. *Note this review was completed without using ridiculousundiscriptive terms like OMG, awesome, yummy, delish, to die for, do your self a favor, trust me, etc.. Describe the food,service (or lack of) and provide details on the cost/copy of check and include pictures! Is the place clean? No one cares aboutthe waiter/waitress names, their abilities, or if they look like they fell face first into a tackle box. They get changed likeunderwear and you don't get to pick one. No we don't care about your allergies or the need for gluten free food. Read more
