Authentic Mexican Delights Right Outside Your Doorstep! During my stay at the nearby hotel, I stumbled upon this Mexican restaurant conveniently located just across the street. With hunger beckoning, I decided to give it a try for lunch, and I'm glad I did! The experience was nothing short of delightful, with the flavors of Mexico coming alive in every dish. From the moment I stepped inside, I could sense the authenticity in the air. The menu offered a range of traditional Mexican fare, each dish prepared with care and attention to detail. From the rich spices to the vibrant colors, every bite was a journey through the heart of Mexico. Whether you're craving classic tacos, hearty enchiladas, or sizzling fajitas, this place has it all. The flavors are bold, the portions generous, and the prices reasonable - a winning combination in my book. If you find yourself in need of a delicious and satisfying meal while staying at the nearby hotel, look no further than this hidden gem of a Mexican restaurant. Your taste buds will thank you!

We love this place. Went during 2 for 1 margaritas. Chips and salsa was fresh. Fajitas is my fave. Parking: Very small parking lot. Hard to get in and out of because it is on busy Nicholasville road. But the place is worth the hassle.

Good quick place for Mexican. They have 2 for 1 happy hour. Good selection, but like everywhere else, have raised their prices quite a bit, so most items are $12-16 minimum. Recently began limiting chips and salsa based on the rest of the order, which is always questionable. Always very loud, but also somewhere we frequent. Update: Got the marg tower. Wasn't any cheaper than 2 for 1 margs, but didnt have to deal with ice on pour or waiting to order another from the waiter
