Been going here for awhile now, it’s great. Salsa is fresh tasting and consistently good. Best Mexican food on the Eastside

First time ever trying this restaurant, in town overnight and it was strongly recommended by a friend... decided to try dine-in. We had a really great experience- excellent food, reasonably priced, server was polite and efficient. He recommended the fajitas over the enchiladas- the chicken fajitas were EXCELLENT. Came with a ton of guacamole, rice, beans, lettuce, sour cream and Pico de Gallo. My husband got the burrito and tostado combo- the steak and chicken were very tender. The neighborhood is a little rough, but this is a gem. Low key atmosphere but people were coming in nonstop, by time we left it was almost full on a Tuesday evening. If you’re ever in Irvington, try this place for a really good menu, delicious food and friendly service!

I have loved Mexican food for what I can remember of my 46 years on this planet. I have ate at Mexican restaurants and taco trucks across this great nation. This particular Mexican restaurant just became my favorite. I wish I could pick it up and move it to my home town for everyone to enjoy. The authentic atmosphere, the salsa, the queso, and the main dish were served to perfection. I ordered the Texas fajitas which had a variety of everything in them. Every last bite was delicious. Highly highly recommend.

I'm from out of town and just randomly pulled in here for some takeout. I love al pastor tacos and these are the second best I've ever had. I went in order the takeout and I thought that was a little bit expensive. And then I realized once I got the food I'm going to be eating this for the next 3 days. I know I will not be back in this area again but if I was I would stop. The second picture is of their tamales which are huge

I can't say enough great things about the food and staff! Delicious food! Wonderful, friendly staff made us feel very welcome and not rushed even though it was really busy there. We went for my mom's 66th birthday today and they gave her a complimentary dessert and wished her a happy birthday several times! She was so full from her steak fajitas that she could only eat a few bites of dessert. My kids helped her with it. Lol. Definitely our new favorite spot for wonderful Mexican food! Edit to add: the horchata is DELICIOUS!

Small locally owned restaurant always seems full at lunch. Great place for lunch, or weekend dinner. A real local jewel
