"Excellent cuisine"

"Decided to try this place after a day out with friends! Their menu is HUGE and they also bring out chips with bean dip and salsa to start! My friend and I decided to try their mango and strawberry kids daiquiri and they were so refreshing and tasty! She was also ecstatic they had birria tacos so I decided to try! It was super tasty and I ate all of it- but it was more than enough food for one person for sure! I also got to try some of my boyfriend's chicken and their chicken is SOO MOIST- I LOVED IT! The staff were friendly and I also loved the touch with the fancy tux uniforms! Everyone looked so slick and professional! We all had a pleasant visit and left with full bellies! 10/10 would recommend if you're craving Mexican food!"

"We had lunch here while visiting from Charleston and we were so pleased we found it! We sat outside because we were with our German Shepherd. The staff seated us right away and were very accommodating. Sefe was our server and he was fantastic! Our food was so tasty and the serving sizes were perfect for lunch. Sefe checked on us frequently and he was so friendly and fun. If you want delicious food for reasonable prices along with a really fun atmosphere, this place is perfect. And ask for Sefe!"

"We have been working in the area for a while and ally got the chance to try this place. When you come in you will noticed the decoration similar to an old ranch house. The waiters are friendly and really active trying to make your visit enjoyable. The food has a lot of flavor and the portions are good for the price. We were here for lunch we ordered Lunch Texas Fajitas which had tons of flavor, big shrimp cooked perfect and the veggies were delicious. Definitely will be back!"

- El S.

"My wife and i love Latin American cuisine from pretty much anywhere but this place is one of our favorites. Food is always fresh tasting, flavor profiles are great but not overbearing or too powerful, and the staff are very friendly and stay on top of making sure you have everything you need. This is one of the best places to eat in the Upstate hands down."

- Matthew J.

"I ordered their dos pelones dish and my husband ordered el barco. Both were amazing, I found my new favorite entree! From the service, to the fresh chips, and delicious food, we would definitely come back. It also didn't hurt that they were playing Bad Bunny's new album!"
