My parents come here with their friends every Friday night. They call it "Margarita Friday". I occasionally accompany them. This place is always packed, but my parents have the same table reserved for them every week so we always get right in. However, it looks like it could be quite a wait if you just walk in, especially on a weekend. They have my absolute favorite hot sauce in the world....not the salsa, the hot sauce. Frequently, you have to ask for the hot sauce. It is well worth it. For straight up gringo Mexican food, I have always found it to be tasty and consistent. My parents dig their margaritas. (I'm not a fan of tequila ever since The Mescal Incident of 2000). You can't go wrong here with your standard shredded beef taco. They are plump and juicy and not too greasy. You will need some napkins for these though. I wouldn't order them on a first date. I love the green corn tamales with green chile gravy as I am a bit of a green chile slut. Beans and rice are well executed. They will bring you flour chips instead of corn if you want and keep the chips and salsa comin....Service is always good. The noise level is a bit high, but not as obnoxious as most of the trendier restaurants in town.....It is just always crowded. It is a local family owned establishment which is always a thumbs up in my book. Solid across the board!
