    I'm from Texas and have the highest expectation for Tex Mex. The salsa was fresh and the mahi mahi fajitas my gf qnd I split for lunch were delicious! I'll definitely be back here another time.

    Not a bad thing on the menu from the burritos to the carne asada. Service is good as well. It can get crowded on some nights so don't be surprised if you have to wait for a table.

    Fresh salsa is always a plus for this fan of TexMex! Great frozen margaritas as well. Favorite dish: chicken enchiladas.

    Everything. Breakfast: the seasoning, drinks: those margaritas and man do they have a fajita menu, which I've never had, but everything I did (chimichangas for one) were amazing.

    Good authentic Mexican and Salvadoran food. Go for a birthday part. The staff puts on a great rendition of Happy Birthday for the birthday girl.

    As a local, this is my go to spot for Mexican. Great drinks, good and service. If you catch a nice day, go early to get a table outside.

    We ordered at home via grubhub Everything was VERY good! Some of the best papusas I've ever had. Will definitely order again.

    Try the pork or lamb Fajitas and make sure you have some of the spicy green jalapeño/habernero sauce on it (it comes in a silver dish)! It kicks it up a notch or two!

    Great example of Sal-Mex food: Salvadorian interpretations of Mexican and Tex Mex dishes. Bistec Encebollado and Carne Asada Salvadorena are excellent steak dishes.

    i could live off the chips and salsa alone, but the chicken fajitas and the seafood soup are to die for. definitely my go-to for tex-mex.

    Ramon is the best bartender. Sangria and Margarita's are 3.50 usually and excellent. Best Dish is the pupusas and the Carne Asada!

    Their chicken soup-the really big bowl that comes with rice on the side-is a perfect meal.
