Place is not the most inviting from the outside but once inside, it's ok. Food is good and traditional (recommend their sea... food). Staff is nice and prices are fair. Would recommend!! Read more
Went to dinner with family, first time here. Try their mango margarita, came in a huge glass, taste great too. Also have their... seafood with tilapia and seafood platters. They are huge portion, you can share with other but my bro ate one by himself.Seafood plater is spicy and salty. Tacos are safe bet if you don?t want to try spicy foods. Read more

This is the place for the freshest guacamole small or large. The fish taco ( Mahi Mahi) was well grilled. Nice place to end your... day! Read more
I went here with a small group and everyone liked what they ordered. The pollo loco is what I had. The cheese sauce was rich... and creamy, and the guacamole tasted fresh and was just the right consistency. The service was excellent, even with therestaurant being very busy. The chips with the salsa were still warm when they brought them to the table. One thing to note,one of the people I was with did comment that her margarita was a bit too strong, but there are people who prefer it that way. The portions were so generous we needed boxes to take the leftovers home. Great food, great value! Read more
The Seafood Enchilada was amazing. Warm & welcoming environment. We will Definitely be back!!
