“ We stopped here on a whim. The hostess and waiter were so friendly. Drinks came fast, food came just as fast. The portions were HUGE. We were a little taken aback by the dinner entree price for fajitas but when they brought it out, we immediately understood. Everything was good, including the kids chicken tenders and fries (not the typical microwave chicken- it was edible to an adult!) Definitely will highly recommend to anyone who will listen! ”

“ Stopped through for a Margarita on the rocks and some chips and salsa when I needed to kill a little time in the area. Their service was friendly and fast. (And clean!) They provided a bean dip with the complimentary chips and salsa. The salsa and dip were spicy and delicious! Spent 16 with a generous tip. ”

“ Great food and service. Large portions. Always get a few meals from it. Ordered chicken fajitas. Highly recommend Visited again with friends. Had the steak fajitas. We all enjoyed the food and excellent service!! A favorite whenever we are in Lacey. ”

“ Good food,good service by professional waitstaff and overall clean and festively decorated restaurant and a nicely maintained restroom every time iv went here over the last year and a half. If you’re into Mexican American food I’d say it’s as good as any and better than most. ”

“ Stopped for a quick lunch after our appointment. This food was amazing!! We both had the 2 Enchilada Lunch Specials and ordered a 3rd one for dinner. Still pretty affordable for eating out. I had shredded beef and hubs had chicken in the Enchiladas....so full now. ”

“ Amazing food selection, and great service. The ambience is very good. The murals on the wall are really lifelike. The spicy salsa is to die for. The restrooms are clean. The music is authentic. The food is authentic and piping hot when it comes out, the wait staff on you every few minutes if you need anything additional. All in all, it is a great place to go out with family and friends. ”

“ Exceptional Food, Genuine Service, and Unmatched Value — Authentic Mexican Food, Impeccable Service, and Unbeatable Value If I could give more than five stars, I would. Mexican food is my favorite cuisine, and I’ve had enough of it—both at home and while dining out—to know when a place is doing it right. This restaurant is doing it exceptionally right. Thanks to my best friend’s family (her mother being a truly gifted home cook), I’ve developed a deep appreciation for traditional flavors, and I can say with confidence that this food was far more authentic than what you’ll find at most modern spots claiming to serve Mexican cuisine. While I enjoy many restaurants, this one stands a step above the rest in both quality and care. Most places today serve a Tex-Mex hybrid, which can be great, but this wasn’t that. The flavor profile, ingredients, and preparation all reflected a level of authenticity that’s hard to find anymore. And more importantly — this wasn’t food that had been pre-prepped or reheated. I know enough about traditional cooking methods to recognize the real thing, and this was it. You could taste that everything was made fresh, not just assembled in the back and rushed out to the table. It had the timing, texture, and warmth of food that was lovingly prepared as we ordered. The atmosphere of the restaurant was just as impressive as the food. The space was clean, welcoming, and thoughtfully arranged. The seating was surprisingly comfortable for a smaller restaurant — no cramped booths or hard chairs. The lighting was perfect: warm, but not too dim, and bright enough to read the menu without squinting. The bathrooms were spotless and well maintained — a small detail that often says a lot about how a business is run. The staff? Wonderful. They were kind, respectful, and impressively attentive without ever hovering. Our drinks were refilled regularly without us needing to ask, and each time they approached the table, they gave a polite heads-up to avoid interrupting our conversation — a subtle but rare skill. My nephew, who is 28 and an Army veteran, ordered a few alcoholic beverages (three total), and the staff handled everything with professionalism and care. They checked his ID, and later made small, polite conversation to gauge how he was doing — a thoughtful and responsible touch that made me feel like we were in good hands. This is the kind of skill well-trained wait staff develop to ensure responsible drinking and guest safety, and it showed a level of care that far too many restaurants overlook these days. The price point? Honestly, better than expected. For the quality of food, the portion sizes, the service, and the entire experience, the value was outstanding. I’ve paid much more for far less, and left nowhere near as satisfied. My only real complaint — if you can even call it that — is that the restaurant is about 60 miles south of my home in Seattle. But the next time I head that direction, I will be making time to stop in again. No hesitation. If you're looking for truly authentic Mexican food, excellent service, comfortable surroundings, and an experience that leaves you planning your next visit before you even leave the parking lot, this is the place. Don’t hesitate — just go. ”
