Always delicious food and cocktails in combination with excellent customer service. Our favorite server Francisco is the best bartender. Always very professional and attentive, service with a smile.

We came for dinner and shared the steak and chicken fajitas and the spinach enchiladas which were all very delicious with good portion sizes. Liked the margarita Monday special too! The service was efficient and friendly.

The shrimp fajitas are flavorful and margaritas are on point. Service is always wonderful and if you are sitting at the bar, Sergio will take care of you.

My daughter picked this place out on our way to Galveston; it was cool and I liked the decor. My teen teased about the music not matching the scene; different genres playing when we went. The flavor was a bit different than DFW, but I finished my plate! Salsas were more sweet than spicy. I enjoyed the cheese enchilada the most! The chicken fajitas and charro beans were good, the beef taco was not bad, and we saw green rice for the first time! Could never remember the name of the restaurant if someone asked me though.

We visited this Mexican restaurant as a group of four and had a great time overall. While I personally would rate it a 3, the rest of the table thought it deserved a 4, so we’re going with a consensus rating of 4 stars. We ordered shrimp fajitas, steak fajitas, guacamole, and a platter that included an enchilada, a taco, rice, and refried beans. The refried beans were surprisingly tasty! For dessert, we had tres leches cake and flan—both were very sweet, but if you have a sweet tooth, you’ll love them. I don’t usually go for very sweet desserts, but they were still quite good. One thing that surprised us was that the food wasn’t spicy at all. We enjoy spicy food, so we expected a bit more heat, but everything was quite mild. Drinks-wise, we had skinny margaritas. They were okay—not amazing, but decent. In terms of pricing, the total for four people, including tip, was just over $200 (about $50 per person). Given the quality and quantity of food, we found this to be very fair. Overall, a solid choice for Mexican food with good value. Would I rush back? Maybe not, but the rest of my group enjoyed it more than I did. Worth trying if you’re in the area!
