Found this restaurant by chance on our way to the old mill shopping area. Ordred the Fajitas for two. As you can see in the... picture you receive a good amount of steak and chicken to share. Parking was time in the front so we parked in the back. Sodawas a little pricey at $3.25 I would recommend stopping there. Read more
As a Mexican, I am picky about ?so-called? Mexican restaurants. The fajitas, molcajete, and guacamole truly felt like home. The... texture of the food was perfect, the meats were juicy, the guacamole was perfect, and the atmosphere felt comforting. Itdefinitely feels home-made and made me feel like I was eating from grandmas kitchen in Mexico. Service was wonderful as well. Read more
This is why we love ?little hole on the wall? local restaurants. It?s a quaint little restaurant with great ambiance and super... friendly staff. The chips were crispy and not overly seasoned. The salsa was the perfect consistency and had just the rightamount of flavor where you can taste a hint of cilantro without it being overpowering. My girlfriend ordered the shrimp fajitasand there were lots of decently sized shrimp that were perfectly cooked and seasoned. The cast iron serving skillet was nicelysizzling when it was delivered to our table and the flour tortillas were perfectly warm and didn?t stick to each other. Theassortment of vegetables were cooked but still fresh and crunchy. I ordered the special which was 2 grilled pork chops withrice and lettuce with sour cream. The pork chops were cooked perfectly with just the perfect seasoning. The serving sizes werevery generous and priced very comparably to other Mexican restaurants we?ve been to. If we didn?t live in FL, this would be oneof our regular stops when we want Mexican food! Read more
We stopped in on our way home from Dollywood and we were a little nervous about the wait time. To our surprise we were seated... quickly for a resort town restaurant during the holidays. The food was excellent and the servers were great! They were superbusy but we were thrilled with the service and food! We will definitely be back. ETA: we went back on NYE for dinner again andwe were seated without a wait. Food was delicious and service incredible! Read more
We stopped in here as we were killing time before we went to the downhill coaster next door. We got seated in a timely manner... but it took about 10 minutes before our waiter came to the table. When he finally did some of my party wanted to order amargarita only to find out this Mexican restaurant didn?t serve them. Never thought this was possible.. not the end of the worldbut then came our food. Food service was fast but the food was bland. Not the worst but definitely not the best. The placeneeded updates and it was dirty. Don?t think I would come back and eat here again if I come to town. Read more
Had a few problems with our food, but overall not a horrible experience. Server forgot a kids meal, fixed it quickly. Nachos... cheese was cold, was heated up. Enchiladas didn't have Enchilada sauce, but chocolate mole sauce instead. Another kids meal hada wrong side, server brought that out quickly too. Read more
