Wanted something a little different today and decided to try this place... I got the Molcajetes Mar Y Tierra (Sea & Land=Surf & Turf) There was fried fish & shrimp, a porkchop, chicken, sausage, steak, and ground beef. I got it with a flour tortilla that came with lettuce, onions, beans, avocado, rice, and a lime... I have one word for everything... A-MAZ-ING!!!! I can honestly say it was a lot of food for the price!!!! It's definitely worth a try... This a hidden little gem... I will geaux back SOON!!!!!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Amazing Latin Dining Experience! From the moment I walked in, the energy, aroma, and warmth of this place blew me away. The food is authentically Latin, full of bold flavors and made with obvious love. Every dish tasted like a celebration — from the perfectly seasoned meats to the fresh, vibrant sides. The service was just as impressive. Friendly, attentive, and genuinely proud of what they serve. You can tell this restaurant puts heart into everything they do. The atmosphere is lively without being overwhelming, making it perfect for a date night, family meal, or just grabbing something delicious after a long day. If you’re craving real Latin flavor that feels like home, this is the spot. I’ll definitely be coming back — highly recommended!

The food is authentic and so, so delicious — especially for the price! The guacamole is the best I’ve had outside of Mexico, tbh, and I love that they fry their own tortilla chips in small batches (so we didn’t stuff ourselves before the mains came out). The steak quality was only so-so but the flavor was 5 out of 5, so I didn’t mind hitting a gristly bit or two. The pork and cheese papusas and accompanying slaw were perfection. The restaurant is a little rough inside and too noisy (music overhead competing with a TV at full volume), so we’ll probably get it to-go from now on — but we’re going to make it a regular in our takeout rotation. I really can’t recommend it highly enough!
