What our customers say about our Mexican food

Over 1000 Mexican dishes served in Wayne. Real reviews.

“Overall, it was a good time! Got the street style tacos, the steak ones were really good. I'll pass on the carnitas one next time.. Drinks were great and our server was very kind and knowledgeable when we asked for gluten free options. They had a fun DJ inside - great spot for us to break during our walk on the path. Will come again!”

“Absolutely loved this place. The food tasted like someone’s grandmother was in the kitchen, in the best possible way. Fresh, flavorful, and authentic, with that homemade depth you hope for but do not always find. Everything we tried was delicious, and we left already talking about coming back. A real gem. Prices are affordable and the staff was very kind. You won't be disappointed. We forgot to take a Pic of our dinner, but dessert was also homemade and delicious.”

“Such a great spot for casual Mexican food. The churros were honestly amazing perfectly crispy on the outside and soft inside. The guacamole was super fresh, and the chicharrón had great flavor and crunch. We also tried the chicken and steak street tacos and both were really good well-seasoned and not dry at all. Portions were solid for the price and everything came out quickly. Definitely a place I’d come back to.”

“I like that I was attended in time, cool place with vibrant colors, love their outdoor place too. Having less vegetarian options, but tortillas are fresh and I like my drink how it was presented. Delicious food with special request of veggies and offered special tequila shots with watermelon flavor.”
