    We are so happy we finally tried this place! And glad to have another restaurant on the east side. Portions are extremely generous (fajitas loco are enough for 2 or 3 people EASILY. I always take at least half home.) and pricing is incredible. The chips are nice and thick, not easily broken. Great for scooping the chorizo queso. That stuff is SO GOOD! The house hot sauces are so great! Don't forget to request them. The double beer we ordered came in an awesome frozen ceramic Corona stein, which stayed frozen the entire time we were there. Amazing! At 6pm lights went down, party lights came on and music started playing. We were just leaving. Seems like a fun time!

    This place ended up being a "wow, we never knew this was here...wish we knew sooner" situation. We live close, but we never really knew what this place was until today. I'm very happy we stopped by. They have the house salsa, but we found out that you can request a hotter and much more flavorful version (showed as a $1 charge on our bill) --- mixing this house salsa with the hot salsa was one of the best things ever. And their tortillas are THICK, which I love. The prices are low, too. In my pictures you can see the size of the margaritas, which were very strong, and about the price of what you pay for 1 or 2 beers (and our margarita had full bottle of beer in it!) Everything was really well set up, too, with my only complaint being that the restaurant has a slightly wonky layout, but you are going there to sit and eat, so that shouldn't matter. Would recommend this place. Most places, which were massive, were less than $15, almost near $10. Again, I wish we knew about it sooner. Hope to go back soon.

    This place has a decent interior; that of which is comparable to a bar. The cuisine served at this restaurant are Hispanic American, and not all choices on the menu are authentic Mexican. However the food does still taste very good. A fantastic place to spend guys or girls night over 20, with an emphasis on the bar. But you can also just go to eat and have a good time too.
