Walked here from the truckstop and was not disappointed. They had extensive lunch specials to pick from including different lunch specials for each day of the week. Today was Monday so I tried today's special which was the Chimichanga plate. I got brought some awesome deep fried chips that were nice and thick and crispy. The sauce was great with a nice kick to it. I loved them so much, the ones I couldn't eat I got a to go bag for them. The meal was a huge platter and the steak was a good quality. Tasty and very filling. I ordered a coke no ice and a Lime Jarritos for drinks. The service was fast and friendly and the device and atmosphere was on point. Definitely a good experience!

Service was fast and the waiter was very polite. We loved the chips and salsa. Both tasted very fresh. We ordered off the kids menu for our almost 2 year old: and the portion size was huge. Definitely at least up to 10 years could order off the kids menu. I ordered the pollo con chorizo: it was so flavorful! Its a must have. My husband ordered enchiladas and said they tasted as expected. Overall great experience. Recommend this place.

Delicious food with excellent customer service. Entire staff is friendly and willing to help with any questions you may have. Portion size was a little smaller than most mexican restaurants that I have been to but was of good quality and cooked to perfection. Very reasonably priced

The food here was prepared quickly and was quite tasty. Service was prompt and friendly as well. The only element that wasn't up to expectations was some elements of the atmosphere. Some tables were rather worn, and there were some food remnants on the wall in the booth where we were seated. This wasn't to the degree where you worried about cleanliness; it just slightly detracted from the overall experience. I'd happily eat here again.
