The food is amazing. The service is top notch. Not a place you'd expect to find in a small town in northern MI. A must stop if you're in the area. Often quite busy at dinner time, so expect a small wait, but well worth it!

Happened by this place while in a road trip and was pleasantly surprised! Really delicious food, good cocktails and we liked the salsa so much we bought some to take home and eat later. It was my husband's birthday and they gave him his entree for free and thankfully didn't do any of that obnoxious, embarrassing tomfoolery that so many restaurants do when you go for a birthday. Classy, clean, super friendly staff and great food.

My husband and I have made a tradition of going here for our birthdays for the past three years. We love this place! The service is always fantastic, and the food is absolutely delicious! You get a free meal on your birthday, too. Their portions are very generous at a reasonable price. And if you're too stuffed to finish your plate there, it makes for tasty leftovers. Great staff, great food, great atmosphere. I definitely recommend this place to anyone in the mood for a good Mexican meal.

Stopped in after a great day celebrating our 14th wedding anniversary and had us an AMAZING dinner to end off the night. Luckily we didn't have a wait to get in, our server was very attentive, made great suggestions, and the food......is exactly what I was looking for in an authentic Mexican restaurant. Can't wait to go back!

We had a wonderful dinner here last night for my birthday. The patio was super cute - think hanging lights, succulents, and bright blue umbrellas. Our waitress was friendly and fun, and the food was spectacular. Seriously, if it was socially acceptable to lick my plate I would have done so in a heartbeat! Highly recommended!

Pulled up to the restaurant at 5pm on Tuesday evening and found no parking right in front... Either this place is that good or people are parked here for something else. We pulled into the parking spaces just down the way on a side street and walked to the restaurant. We had to put our name in for a 30 minute wait, so apparently it's that good!
We were told we could order a drink from the bar and sit outside at the high top tables to wait, which we did. I ordered the frozen strawberry margarita and hubby ordered a strawberry daiquiri, both delicious, and chips and salsa (spicy so watch out for

This was my second time visiting yesterday and same as before, the food was phenomenal and the service friendly. This is a favorite stop when visiting the area. They definitely were busy but the food came out quick and fresh. And the Matt's margarita is a perfect blend.

Really good Mexican food! We had a bit of a wait bc of capacity limits, but it was not too bad! Our waitress was super pleasant and helpful.
I got the tamales as an entree and they were like heaven! My husband enjoyed his chimichanga as well!
