Oh my gosh!!! I have to say this is my new favorite Mexican restaurant!!! I love Mole, and most places give you about a half a cup of it on your chicken. Not here!!!! My burrito was full of chicken and rice then topped with so much delicious mole!!! My husband loves fajitas and absolutely loved his!!! I highly recommend and know for sure that we will be back!!

What a unique and quirky place! They kept the previous restaurant theme and added a Mexican twist. The food was ample and delicious. Margaritas were large, I recommend the passion fruit! Our waitress was very pleasant and attentive. I can’t wait to return!

Went there for lunch with friends. Everyone ordered something different and no one was disappointed. Everything was delicious and the portions were huge. The outside looks like a 50's diner and the inside as well. Touches of Mexican flair with large sombreros and some Spanish pictures.

We elected to sit indoors in the old diner style seating! The food was excellent, (Chicken Fajitas-yummy) portions were large, staff was on it, very attentive. Restaurant super clean. We do not drink alcohol so I cannot speak for that but it was a great experience!

What a cute place! The old diner is super appealing and inside a burst of color and life and great food for super cheap! My daughter and I shared one entrée and one soda and we brought home another full meal from the leftovers! 25 bucks for the both of us and enough to feed her boyfriend with the leftovers! The to-go box pictured is the leftovers! And my daughter and I were very hungry!!!!

1st timers, recommended by a co-worker. Beautiful, clean location if you are a "50"s diner, feels a little out of place for an authentic Mexican restaurant. Service was very good. Beer was served with a very chilled glass. I had 3 huge chorizo tacos served with rice and beans. So big, that I struggled to finish them. Very impressive collection of hot sauces. I will definitely return to sample more of this large menu. Building sits off the road. I missed it and had to circle back. Update, went back twice for taco Tuesday. 1st time with shredded beef, this time for ground beef. These things are monsters for $2 each. You have to try these. Also, the special soup is tremendous. Get the small bowl, it's large enough for two. Looks like a half of a shredded chicken in it. Great, fast service. I love this place
