Great service, great food with lots of flavor, hot chips and good salsa. The staff made rounds frequently and my water glass was filled multiple times, will be back for sure.

Good food and nice restaurant. Very friendly and helpful personnel. The Pina Colada was very good but is a meal all by itself! Very dense and lots of calories. Do not take this if you have insulin sensitivity problems! The Pina Colada filled us up completely, not leaving space for dinner :( Bad decision from our part but I wish they had warned us The fish tacos were good but we'll need to go back some day soon to give it another try without these massive Pina Coladas.

In 42 years this is the best Mexican food restaurant I've ever gone to it was recommended to me my girl here in town she said it was her favorite restaurant we went and checked it out and I can see why it was her favorite restaurant. The cut of carne asada is very high-end cut absolutely delicious...

I was calling from afar. Have a family member in Astoria who had a tragic day. I’d heard this restaurant had excellent vegetarian fajitas. I called to see if they could deliver, they typically don’t...don’t have staff availability. A VERY kind worker named Marta offered to deliver herself after she got off work. Such a giving human. The fajitas were excellent. The staff excellent. I will forever patronize this great place!

Only good things to say about my first time here! The food was delicious and we’ve wanted to go back every since. Ordered carne asada, chicken chimichanga, and enchiladas. Carne asada was cooked perfectly! Salsa was delicious, we ate them chips and salsa on the table so quickly. One of the best parts too was how quick the service was. The place was fairly busy and we still had our food so quickly and with great service. Just a great vibe all around!

Came here the other day with a friend Who said that this restaurant had the best Carne Asada. I had a chili Riano and she had Carne Asada, but she let me taste it and it was the best Carne Asada I have ever had. Today I decided to take my husband to try this restaurant and the first thing he said after trying the delicious Carne Asada tacos is this is the best. The customer service was amazing. The food is amazing. Best authentic Mexican food on the coast. I will highly recommend this place to others. Thank you!

We sat out on the deck by ourselves. Got to watch the sunset and feel the breeze. The drinks were HUGE! Delicious food, great service (the food did take a while to come out but worth the wait).
