Amazing food. Awesome waitress. I ordered the taco salad (yum) and the fideo with beans (yum yum)! There are daily specials and I'm looking forward to going back and trying the chicken fried chicken.

You must check this place out. Great food affordable prices and a staff that treats you like family. I've been there several times and I would highly recommend this place without reservation. Just be cautious to be there early because once the special is gone, it's gone.

Great food! Servers are great and greet you with smiles and if you don't know what you want, that's okay! The people working are more than willing to recommend their favorites or offer the specials going on that day.

Great tex mex food, not that corn with rice crap!! the original tex mex arroz con pollo, enchiladas, and so many more. It reminds me of La Siesta on agnes.. I love it I wish we had one in Annaville.
