Everybody raves about our stuffed avocados ! Lightly battered and fried, filled with spicy chicken and gooey cheese , topped with suiza sauce...YUM!

Josh Krajnak

Their menu is interesting, they play 99's music instead of mariachi music , and their salsa is wack. Nobody here is even Mexican. They also have a Texas side of the menu for chicken steak and burgers

Nice ambience. Staff could have been better. It was undergoing some repair work when we visited today but still the other portions of the restaurant looked nice. The salsa with chips is too spicy nice

Food is decent, but not worth the price. Also, don’t get the purple margarita . They won’t tell you what’s in it cause it’s a “secret”, but I’ll tell you that it’s a margarita with grape koolaid.
