" I was blown away by how flavorful the food was! It's a smaller restaurant which gives it a cozy feel. While it’s mainly Tex-Mex, I enjoyed every bite! The quesadillas were melty and delicious. Will be back to try other items on the menu. " (*Curated Review*)

" Very cozy atmosphere with friendly staff. The guacamole is a must-try; it’s made fresh! The food was decent overall. However, the wait could be on the longer side. " (*Curated Review*)
