    Very clean, great service and atmosphere, generous servings and nice presentation. Salsa and chips were excellent. However, chicken fajitas and pork carnitas were bland and needed more seasoning. Most likely will not return after this initial visit.

    Food was good. Two people had the taco salad and liked it. Burris tacos were good - especially once hot sauce was added - but not great. The steak fajitas were very good. The flan for dessert was delicious! Atmosphere was fine but the back room was so noisy we asked to be moved. We sat at the high tops at the front of the restaurant which we liked. The only down side to the atmosphere was the live singer (normally love live performers) because it made it where conversation was difficult. Overall, a pleasant experience and great for it being close to home! Would go again.

    This is small quaint place - think fast food restaurant converted to a sit-down. However, the food is very good and we enjoyed our dinner. Typically, chips and salsa are bottomless at Mexican restaurants but here they are limited to one small bowl which is not a lot for a party of 4 - that was the only downside.

    Our second time here. Great find. Very nice selection. They have LIVE MUSIC which is very nice but a little loud. However, there is dining outside and in a back room so it is not too loud to talk. Service prompt and very willing to modify orders. There are lots of Mexican restaurants in Tampa but this one stands out as WAY above the rest

    Great Authentic Mexican Cuisine. Best In Tampa Bay Area! Food has amazing taste and large selection of Mexican traditional dishes. Handmade Tortillas. Ambience is great and place is spotless clean. Service is very professional, polite and always attentive. Large venue with Patio seating outside as well.

    The pork I ordered was very dry and chicken tacos were very dry, rice and beans were room temperature. Very disappointing, we will not be going back here for dinner
