Our new favorite Mexican restaurant. This is a family buisness, meals made fresh. Sometime a certain menu item is not available as they only serve fresh food and may not be availbe or ripe yet. Dinner for 4 people with drinks cost 50

The guy was very helpful in choosing what to eat. He gave many recommendations. The food is all made fresh even the guacamole! Everything from the salsa & queso to the street tacos to the fresh fruit waters was absolutely delicious! We will definitely be going back!
