Food is DELICIOUS! Staff is very nice. I would highly recommend it.
The lady who worked there was very nice. The food was served hot - the way it is suppose to be. It had a good flavor.
My flying saucer was very spicy. I couldn't finish it.
It was just ok. Soccer game was on the tv and it was loud and annoying.
service was slow.

After spending the last 25 years in the a Seattle area, we really miss good Mexican food. On our yearly visit to San Diego we like to eat at taco shops. This restaurant has excellent food at an affordable price. Server was the best waitress we've had in a long time. She was by herself, but made sure we had everything we needed. Wonderful attitude. You could tell she enjoyed her job. We will be coming back next year. Read more Read less

As silly as it sounds, napkins for the large plate of food covered in watery sauces (we like and know Mexican food, sauces are not like water!)where literally see through like they had taken a 2ply and separated it.

Very large portions, would like to see more quality than quantity. Drinks were watered down.
Food, service and decor very good. Loud diners nearby table detracted from an excellent experience.
