Absolutely the best Mexican food we have had in awhile. We travel a lot and go to a lot of Mexican restaurants and this one is hands down the best we've had in a long time. Excellent service as well. We had the taco, 2 enchilada combo and the Burrito California. Both amazing. Their salsa comes out warm and spicy, perfect! Definitely going to return while we are here!

I love this restaurant! They have the best stuffed avocado in the city. This is a hole in the wall restaurant in the back of the neighborhood where I grew up. Unfortunately, they get affected by the weather and often flood during Hurricane season. Very good place.
