My spouse has been on a roll with giving me great recommendations on restaurants I’ve never been to! My friend who came along also had a great experience here, so two positives should be enough confirmation. ATMOSPHERE:They’re located in the Azeka Shopping Center in the south wing where the gas station is. It’s a quaint eatery with high ceilings which gives that airy feeling. There’s a small bar and low tops throughout. MENU:All the traditional Mexican fare including a children’s menu and a handful of desserts. They also have an arsenal of tequila along with cocktails and beer. BEVERAGE:Hawaiian Hibiscus Margarita - $11.00I’ve had hibiscus juice in Mexico and liked it. It’s similar to fruit punch but not as sweet. Combining that in a margarita sounded refreshing so this was an easy choice. I got it on the rocks, no salt. It was put together well with the perfect amount of alcohol and juice. FOOD:Burrito Grande - $13.99I added ground beef for $3.99 more. IMO, ground beef is the quintessential meat for anything Mexican as it’s easy to eat, eliminating the need for silverware or “tooth-cutting”. And, I prefer its texture compared to strips of steak. The burrito comes loaded with rice (which I axed), refried beans, cheese, sour cream, pico de gallo, grilled bell peppers, grilled onions and oddly mozzarella cheese, topped with a drizzle of sour cream. Yum, yum, yum. Soft and fresh tortilla, tasty filling, good portion size. My only complaint is the onions could’ve grilled more. SERVICE:We were immediately greeted and seated by Hugh who ended up being our server. Very friendly and professional guy for his young age. A small hiccup with my order was immediately fixed without hassle as I received my burrito without ground beef. Thank you! OVERALL:Any Mexican eatery that serves ground beef is a winner in my book! Good food and service. A nice alternative to my favorite local Mexican chain.

We ate here with another couple one night when we were on the hunt for Mexican food. Personally I didn’t enjoy my dish but the other 4 in my party enjoyed theirs. I would say it was an average place. Not bad but not particularly good either.

We went with our toddler grandbaby and got great service. Space is a little limited but the high chair worked out great. The tacos were very authentic and there was some variety for fun. They have daily specials, happy hour and coupons can be found in the tourist magazines found at the airport.
