Been here a few times now and every visit has been outstanding! The food and service never disappoint. Even on a busy day they make sure to take care of you. Food is always cooked to perfection and everything is so fresh. I love that they give free chips with mild and hot salsas, they also offer a free soup with your entree order. They have amazing margaritas too! So glad to have this place in my neighborhood and can’t wait to come back!

We have been coming here for probably 20 years now. Been here for work lunches and family dinners over the years. The food is always excellent. And when you are here you have the attention of a family owned establishment. I typically get the taco dinner, but sometimes the carne assada, or combination dos. All are fantastic. Highly recommend this for family dinners or even lunch. The red sangria is good too!

Just a quick A+++++ update. Queso Fondido and Carne Asada was fire! This small Mexican restaurant throws down on the ceviche, the salsa, the margaritas and everything else they make. Had the Pancho Villa steak dinner, it was mouth watering just thinking about it. Hot, fresh, delicious ingredients. They have a hand made & shaken margarita and a few flavors including fresh pineapple ! Go check it out if you have not been ! I was too busy eating to take photos of the food, just that great!

The food was really good and the service was awesome. The glass and mirrors here are so clean that you would think there was any there. Added a few more pictures 4-15-24

We came here after returning to this area. This place is still great. Delicious hand shaken Piña Colada and Margaritas and tasty salsa and chips and a cup of soup! We both had the ground beef enchiladas and they were very good. Reminds me of a place from 40 years ago! Friendly staff, especially Maria! Northern Mexican food right here in Addison!

The best Fajitas I’ve ever had. The Classic Margarita on the rocks was also amazing.

We ate outside on the patio so car traffic was a little loud at times, but there was music, & the weather was amazing. The soup was delicious, steak tacos so tasty, and our dessert was 10/10 fried ice cream w/ churros. Dog friendly as well. We will be back for sure!!!
