I was hesitant about trying a new Mexican restaurant. No matter how many that I've been to I always gravitate back to my tried and true favorite. On this occasion though I would have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The food was great, service was excellent and the prices were reasonable. I absolutely loved the atmosphere here as well. It was a little more upscale than your typical restaurant. Amazingly though the prices didn't reflect that. I'm grateful that my wife talked (dragged) me into trying a new place. The drinks had flashing LED lights in them and the kids were enthralled by it. My wife asked if our kids could take the light home or if they were reusable. Our server replied that there was only one light for our two kids. She said she would be right back and brought back a handful of them. She definitely won our kids over. I am normally resistant to change but I do believe I've found my new favorite restaurant. If I had any complaints it would be that the menus were hard to read. It was mostly in Spanish with a small description in English. If you ask they will bring our a simplified Menu in English though. Overall I was impressed with my experience here and look forward to going back.

This is my second visit to this restaurant. I wanted to try something different from the menu so I could see how consistent they are with the preparation of their food. I ordered in person but took the food to go. My son and I enjoyed the food today as well. Everything was nicely prepared and had good texture. The MOLCAJETE MAZATLÁN and the ARROZ PLAYERO were good but could’ve used a little more seasoning. The shrimp and calamari basket was okay. As happened the last time I ate from this restaurant, my bill had an extra fee that was not obvious. This time, I questioned it before paying. Turns out that if you pay with a credit card there is an additional fee that’s based on a percentage of the bill; however, if you are paying with cash, the cost is as expected/accurate. That still does not sit well with me because the cost should be the same regardless of whether you’re paying with cash or paying with a credit card. Other than the issues described above, this is still a good spot to eat. The food has been consistently good overall.
