Wow! This new Mexican place greatly exceeded my expectations! I’ve seen a few expensive restaurants not survive in this neighborhood of busy families. So I was happy to see an affordable restaurant cater to all the teens and adjacent schools. I already knew it was a gorgeous space. What I didn’t expect was KILLER Mexican food at an affordable price! I got the super breakfast burrito with bacon and hoped for the best. It’s eggs, beans, cheese, potatoes and choice of bacon or ham. The bacon was diced and perfectly crispy, not soggy lard. 🤤 The guacamole was my next apprehensive order, since everyone seems to have their own personal style. Personally (growing my own avocados at home) I like it to be about the fresh mashed avocado, not the overload of other ingredients thrown in. This was PERFECTION!! The only thing better would be a wedge of lime for me to squeeze myself 🥰 I’m sure they would oblige if I asked, but I was too busy snarfling this all down, and didn’t want to cone up for air. The cinnamon sugar tortilla crisps are so fresh and flaky, I had to take a bag home with me. I don’t think it made it all the way home though 🤭 The entire staff was super friendly and eager to accommodate. Noni, the Gen Mgr, and the cashier were especially friendly. Everyone greets you with a big smile and “Hello!” I will be sure to be back for the fish tacos and happy hour 🍻 The bar has all the best mexican beers on tap. Did I mention all the TV’s airing the sports channels, with acoustics that you can still carry a conversation in peace? Winner! 🙌🏼✨
