“ Looks like a fast food shop made into restaurant. The service was amazing. I got chips and salsa and beans to start with. I ate the carne asada and carnitas tacos (they are decent sized tacos). The green sauce they serve them with is amazing. The carnitas seemed a little dry but I also showed up right before closing so I think that’s more on me than them. I drank a cantarito and it was delicious and in a super cute photo worthy glass. Will DEFINITELY be back! ”

“ Amazing! My sister and I wanted to do something for my folks for their 45th Wedding Anniversary but with Covid19 restrictions we were faced with ordering takeout. The staff was very friendly and helpful and gave us several suggestions on how to order to make it better for my family. The price was very reasonable and the food was amazing and the order was perfect including giant portions! We had plenty of food and tons left over! It was perfect! Thank you so much for making my parents anniversary dinner so wonderful! ”
“ THIS PLACE IS INCREDIBLE. 20 years. I've never had a better mole enchilada. Hot beans and salsa with my chips I'd pay double for this. I'm a customer for life. There is nothing better as a man at a dinner table when you get handed a massive mug to drink out of. Something about it just feels damn good. Huge portions. Lunch for tomorrow. Or dinner for 2 with a grande combination! Seasoned perfectly! ”
“ SO GOOD!!! Missing Denver's Mexican food scene as always, but this place was REALLY good! Top 5 in WA for sure on the entrees. Big ol' beers to top it off. Although the chips seemed stale, and the salsa was a bit too spicy for me, the flavor of the salsa was on point. Got the chile rellano and enchilada combo. Beans were so good that I could feel the lard coating my throat. Got a side of the smoky chipotle sauce, and it was insanely good! Tried to stretch my hand out in the picture so you could see how massive the plate was. ”
