Tons of authentic Mexican dishes and plenty seafood as well. The carnitas and birria tacos are amazing. Aguachile tostada is a great starter and on the weekends the soups/specials are always the way to go!

The pupusas are amazing!! I love pupusas but since the restaurant where I would always go to get mine closed down it's been hard to find a place that makes them, let alone taste great and a reasonable price. Even got hubby loving them lol.

They have a robot waiter that's really cool at the Coliseum and Freeman Mill Rd location.

This place made the best steak taco ever! My only complaints surround the large number of onion and the huge amount of cheese. Aside from that, they were fresh and delicious in the green sauce that was included. Try the red sauce with caution. I am a heat lover and just a small taste had my mouth on fire. This has been one of few times that the entire family ordered tacos and we ate them all. We have picky eaters and they made everything exactly as ordered. The cashier was friendly and very detail oriented.
