We were looking for a Mexican restaurant that wasn't closed yet and found this place. So glad we did! Amazing food, great service, huge portions, and so many food options on their massive menu. We will be back for sure.

Delicious food in a nice, laid back environment. Our waiter was very attentive and our food didn't take too long to come out. Absolutely massive menu, so start looking at it as soon as you get there... you'll need that extra time!

The food is amazing here! My favorite dish is the deluxe enchiladas, I get them every time. The atmosphere isn't anything too fancy, but there are booths and tables and the place is always clean.

The inside was cozy and beautiful decorated hand painted walls. Service was very quick and friendly. Plenty of chips and salsa while waiting. Drinks looked great, even though I didn't try one. Carne asada tacos were fast, very hot and delicious . Definitely recommend.

Very good Mexican food! Had a date with my wife here and we both enjoyed our meals, serving sizes were big, we had to ask for to go boxes! Enjoyed the atmosphere very much and waiters and waitresses were great. Overall I give it a 5 star for being fantastic! Took my whole family out again to this restaurant and we had a enjoyable time, the waiter and waitress were super on top of things, with refills and asking if we needed anything else, also very good and funny personality, we loved it

Picked up food to go on our way out of Lincoln and it did not disappoint. We came here because we wanted something safe for my wife who has Celiac disease and something that actually tasted good too. Well check and check! So many options for people who need gf food and even the chips and other fried things are safe! I got the Manadero burrito and a tamale and they were both delicious. She got the enchiladas mi Tierra and she really liked it, it’s nice to have another option than red or green sauce or mole. The rice and beans were really authentic and delicious, and the staff who helped us were extremely nice and helpful. Inside the restaurant was super cool looking and if we didn’t have the dogs in the car we would’ve loved to sit inside. We’ll definitely be returning!
