Authentic, cozy restaurant. DELICIOUS traditional Mexican specialties and all the best staples. We tried 4 different dishes, and all 4 were perfect. Our waitress was so attentive and friendly AND THE MANGO MARGARITAS were fantastic!!!

My husband and I really enjoyed ourselves. We were greeted as soon as we walked in. Our waitress was very nice and attentive. Chips and salsa ( green and red) were immediately served. My Margarita was perfect! Not too sweet. I ordered enchiladas with green salsa. Very good very flavorful. My husband ordered a chimichanga and had no complaints. Can’t wait to return to try other dishes.

This is a Mexican restaurant in the back of a Mexican supermarket. We go here for dinner every summer— many times— whenever we’re at the beach. The food is amazing . Cooked fresh to order. They’re from Jalisco and I don’t know what to say other than try this place . It’s the best.
