    Delicious! I had the steak tacos and there was more than enough for leftovers, very good. We had tortilla soup for an appetizer and it was some of the best I've ever had! My husband had the Fajitas and they were very good as well, lots of meat. My mixed drink was my fave! I had a swamp water with pineapple juice instead of sweet and sour. Great service and a beautiful restaurant with gorgeous handpainted walls... check it out!

    This is the place to go for great Mexican food! They have a very large restaurant and there was no wait to be seated. My Enchiladas Suiza was as good as I have had! The service was excellent too. Ambiance is very nice, all walls have a continuous mural on them. The bar area is a separate room but connected by open doors. I would sit as far away from the bar as possible, the music is deafening. Overall, a good experience!

    My wife and I have been coming here since we moved to Lancaster. The staff is great, very attentive. We have never had to wait for a table The food is top notch, my wife loves their chilli relleno. We would also recommend the fajitas, as well. We get the beef & chicken fajitas for one and we can split it, and still take some home. If you leave hungry, it's not because of the portions! The Margaritas are great also. The prices are very reasonable. Bottom line, we have never had a bad experience with the staff, and never had a bad meal! Great overall dining experience!

    Nice place the menudo was good and we had nice service. It makes up for the veggie omelet I order it should have been named bell pepper omelet, oh and it didn't say on the menu that it had mushrooms and I dislike mushrooms but over all it was decent.
