Small parking lot but we were greeted and sat our group lots of indoor seating space perfect for big families. Food was very good and definitely recommended will be back soon.
Haven’t been here in a few years so thought I’d stop in for lunch. Was greeted and sat as soon as I walked in, looked over the menu and enjoyed the chips and salsa, ordered the usual Cameron a la diabla with flour tortillas. The dish was served fresh and hot and tasted as good as it looked. I will be back, and it won’t be years from now.
Everything was amazing big portions!
Best seafood mex restaurant in the area. Can vouch for all tacos including barbacoa and ceviche. On top of that, service and cleanliness of restaurant was outstanding. Will be back when in the area.
Just ordered some food got home started to eat and there is a hair in the food a dark hair that looks like a pubic hair. Disgusting and I can’t believe this. I will never be able to eat there again ever. This is truly disgusting to find in food you already started eating. Obviously they are not clean obviously they don’t care if they lose customers.
