I had not been to dinner here in 30 years since I moved from Chicago. I returned over a weekend visit and took my daughter. It was even better than I remembered.

We had a wonderful experience a few days ago. We had our family there and had a great meal with exceptional service. The salsa is unique and so good. Everyone really enjoyed their meals. The tacos and enchiladas have so much flavor. We would recommend this to anyone who has not tried this restaurant yet.
