Patti Welter

One of my new favorites in West St. Paul, MN. The food is delicious. We had, three Carnita tacos, three Chicken Tacos, three Queso-Birria Tacos w/Consume with Chips & Guacamole...Delicious!!! Definitely worth the visit and full of satisfied customers. Also, thought it was worth taking a picture of the Delicious Ceviches next to us.

Renee Tyler

I've been here so many times and have yet to write a review. I'm not a huge Mexican lover but I always find something I can eat here!! The service is hit or miss but the food is always good! I absolutely recommend the ceviche, it's always fresh and delicious. The chips are good and well seasoned and their happy hour always hits. The sangria is delicious as are the margaritas. In the summer they open the doors and you can eat on the sidewalk. The bathroom isn't the cleanest but not so bad you can't use it. Stop it and find out for yourself, the food won't let you down.

Good food if served hot right away. Never got my drink as ordered (need to update menu if not available) so I just drank water. Only 1 wait staff on the floor taking orders and had a food runner delivering to the table. Atmosphere wasn't what I expected. Limited parking.
