Authentic Mexican food with great service. One of few places serving Puerto Nuevo Style Lobster.
We loved this place before the new ownership. Good food, good margaritas, and a funny, personable waiter. Then, we went back in September 2023, and the service was terrible, food just okay. We decided to give them another chance today 12/19/23. We walked in at 7:05. An employee sitting at a table and too lazy to get up told us to sit anywhere we wanted. Then, as we looked for a table, she changed her mind and hurried over to tell us they were closed. I told her that the website said that the restaurant was open until 8:00. She said, “I know, sorry” (she didn’t seem sorry). I’ll be surprised if this place stays in business in 2024. I know we’ll never go back.
Great mexican ambiance, hand made corn tortillas, delicious food. Good pricing, definatelly a secret gem in la mesa.
I absolutely love this restaurant. Between the food quality and the amazing service of Herman and the woman with the glasses, they are so great, especially to us highschoolers. It'd such a calm atmosphere and they always are so sweet to us. I highly recommend!!
I love love love this restaurant. 5 stars all around <3 Herman and his crew really make everything great here. Thank you from me and good sis Tori
Our favorite Mexican restaurant! The margaritas are great, and all the food is top-notch and very authentic. My husband is Latino so I can verify this information!
Best kept secret in East La Mesa! Easy to get to, just down the way from Anthony's Fish Grotto off of the 8. Great tortillas and great service. I'm a little bit of a food snob. Okay I'm a snob. I ordered Camarones al Mojo de Ajo, shrimp sauteed in butter which in most places is good but can be bland. I asked them to kick it up a notch with Serrano peppers. Perfect! I appreciate their attention to detail. They always remember my wife's regular order with iced tea and our preferred booth. I am on a mission to try everything on the menu. They have yet to disappoint. I look forward to every visit. A+++
