This place is amazing. I have been to several Mexican Restaurants in the area and this is by far the best. Brian and his wife and kids always are there to greet you and keep a sunny disposition. They have tasty Pork Tamales, the best I ever had. The chips and salsa are good and service is fast and friendly. They have great beer specials especially during the Bears and Packers games. This is a wonderful locally owned family restaurant with a unique and delicious menu. Please stop by there for a great experience, I know I will!

I thought this place was very average. The waitress was very friendly, the atmosphere is fun, but the food is subpar. I had the torta with chicken which made me pretty sick the next day. My stomach is sensitive with certain foods and something in the torta didn't agree with me. The chips and salsa they give out in the beginning are okay. I liked the salsa because I had never had any like it and the flavor was good. The chips would have been better if they were less greasy and more flat; the chips came out really thick. The prices are high so be aware of that.
If you're looking for authentic mexican food, this place isn't that authentic. You'll get mexican dishes for a higher price, but have good service. It's okay. -

I've been here a couple of times, and I'd say the food quality is really declining. The food is unnaturally bland. Chorizo tacos typically have a lot of flavor, but it closely resembled plain ground beef. The rice and beans don't taste like anything. It's not great, which is a shame.

Very friendly service and even when was busy they always made sure we were taken care of at this place. I did not care for the chicken or chorizos taco. My husband said he was good. So it really depends on your taste. Try it and I hope you enjoy.

This Mexican restaurant was just what I needed after a rough week. The Owner Brian was genuinely concerned with my dining experience. Kristy, my waitress suggested the steak fajitas which were a hit. There was more than enough for two people.
I will return again.
