Great place to go to for a quick bite. As someone that doesn't care for guacamole or avocados, their guac tasted amazing. Heads up if you eat on the rooftop on a hot day they will have the outdoor mists going

I immediately liked the colorful vibe with lots of outside light from big windows. I ordered the La Morena margarita, which was really good. I like spinach and didn’t see it on the menu. Our very friendly waiter said they could make me a spinach quesadilla. I really liked it. The cheese was great too. They have patio seating and an upstairs outdoor space as well. Very enjoyable experience.

I've been eating here for a while. They have two locations, but this one is my favorite and the original. The vegetarian enchiladas with Verde salsa are so good. The chips are thick but not too thin. They hold salsa and guacamole without breaking. Everything is seasoned to perfection. The heat sneaks up on you but doesn't burn. This comfort food all the way. I gotta it to go, and it was still delicious, and the portions weren't smaller. Friendly service and family owned. I haven't their quesadillas, burrito, and other items. They're all on point. You don't know what you're missing. Give them a try, and you'll be a regular. Don't tough the Skelton couple, either. Until next time.
