Freshly made tortilla shells and well-seasoned meats made this stop an excellent choice for a quick and filling dinner. Pile on the extras - top your burrito with enchilada sauce, add guac,, lettuce, sour cream , jalapeno and several other choices....Nothing here is overly hot/spicy. A cold Mexican beer would have made for an excellent meal. Nope, no alcohol served here.

Family owned and operated Pizza, sandwiches, incredible salads and more. The owner and chef has had the business now for a little over a year and he has transformed it into a must check on a regular place for my wife and I.All the salads are comprised of Fresh Cut Greens...No prepackaged salad mixes...and they a very large portions. Pizza topping selections seems limitless with a good dough recipe and flavorful sauce. Served fast and hot...They also have a large sandwich selection, my favorite is the Philly Steak.Great Local place to eat in or have delivered.

Unique Mexican restaurant really like the décor. We sat in bar area so we didn't have to wait to be seated. The complimentary chips and salsa was average the salsa was "runnier" than I like so I ordered the "hot" which isn't all the hot it had a better taste than the mild. Of all the places I have eaten at I have never seen the food come out as fast as it does here. It was less than 5 minutes after we ordered they were bringing out the food.........crazy fast. The portions are bigger than average. There were three of us food and drinks was $75.00. Not bad place at all.

It seems like Mexican restaurants are as plentiful as Chinese restaurants were 10 years ago. Every Mexican restaurant has a little different twist. This one is very good. It is clean. The personnel are attentive. The food is very good. That's all it takes to get my $$$.

I've been driving by this place for years. Keep saying that I would stop but never did until today. Boy, I've been wasting a lot of time. This place is good! I was by myself and only had one item, the gorditas. I had never had it before but it looked interesting a gave it a try. Think mexican hamburger. Mine had pork, cheese and other stuff. It was excellent and cost about $3, about $4.50 with a soft drink. This included a wonderful salsa and nachos. The dining room is very small and I saw people eating several other items and everyone seemed happy. Takeout appears to be very common. I don't; know if they were shorthanded but the small dining room had many unoccupied table with cups and plates that needed to be cleared. I wouldn't keep me away but I'm hoping this isn't a normal practice.

The atmosphere here is quite colorful. There has been an enormous amount of detail put into every aspect of this restaurants interior. The service here is very good as well. Service with a smile and in a professional manner. The food is very good. They have very good salsa. My wife noted that the chips seemed a little overcooked for her liking, but not all of them had that problem. The steak quesadilla was very good and messy. It was crammed full of ingredients. The Fajitas Texans was presented beautifully and overflowing. More food than you should eat in one setting. Their margaritas on the rocks are well done. We enjoyed their Margarita Mexicana. This in our estimation is the second best Mexican restaurant in the Lafayette area. It is worth a trip here to eat just to see their colorful interior and tasty Mexican fare. We will be back to enjoy some of their other noted favorites on their menu.

Convenient from interstate with fast service. Excellent well done chips and flavorful, slightly spicy salsa. Ordered hot salsa, but itâs really hot sauce. Beans are good, not soupy. Chiles torreados are amazing!!! Husband was pleased with his carne Asada tacos and heâs very picky. I would definitely return and order the same thing!

Love eating here! You can get your food authentic or more American style. The salsa is a bit on the hot spicy side. Rice and beans are very flavorful. I usually get fajitas or the Carne asada. Both are very good and consistently prepared. My husband likes the authentic tacos. Chorizo is available but it is pork. Wish they would carry beef chorizo.
