Our Guestbook
“ Having spent several years living in San Antonio, I hadn't expected much from an Indiana Mexican restaurant, but I was so very deliciously wrong! The corn tacos were fresh and soft, their spicing was excellent, and their menu had so many good options it was hard to pick. Serafin took excellent care of me and my two young kids, and the restaurant and bathroom were cheerful and clean. We will definitely be back, ¡Muchisimas Gracias! ”
“ Lots to choose from the menu. Great food. Friendly and attentive staff. Easy to get to and plenty of parking. ”
“ The food is delicious!!! Service was great and fast! I loved the atmosphere and can't wait to return! ”
“ The food was very good. I took my daughter out, and we each ordered off the lunch menu plus a margarita. Your meal can be cheaper than ours if skipping the margarita. We were also pleased with portion size. We did not want leftovers, and the lunch portion was filling, but not too much! Will definitely visit again when in the area. ”
“ Food is always hot and is always so good. Sometimes service can be slow during busier times, I can notice 2 maybe 3 servers for the whole restaurant but it's never terrible. This is probably my favorite restaurant in town, LOVE IT! ”
“ Excellent food, great service, reasonable prices, clean and attractive interior, daily specials and good bar selections. The food and service here are both consistently better than most Mexican spots, and they habe a lot of great specials. In particular I really like their carnitas which are only 9.50 in Wednesdays. An incredible bargain. Also, the restaurant is a little hard to find but worth it, and with great access to all the West side shopping. ”
“ This is a great restaurant! It all started with a great server! He was friendly, extremely helpful and had a good sense of humor. The food was excellent and a very nice portion. If you are in the Bloomington area I definitely recommend this place. ”
“ Great food, amazing staff! Would definitely return when back in town! ”
