On a long road trip, we stopped at this exit as it had the most chain restaurant options, but we saw this Mexican restaurant and gave it a try. It did NOT disappoint. Super clean, vibrantly decorated, and appointed with unique ‘green’ walls imitating plants and vegetation. The bathroom was cleaner than mine at home. The food was fresh, hot, and delicious. Great service and the food came out quickly. Great find. Highly recommend, it’s always a good idea to skip the chain restaurants - especially when there’s a great option like this.

Diners overwhelmingly call out the signature dish as the must-order. The vibe reads as vegan restaurant — service is consistently described as warm and unhurried. Common gotcha: queues form at peak times — go early or late.

I love everything about this place. My husband and I are originally from Arizona and we both say this is the best Mexican food we have ever had. There isn't a single server who isn't an absolute delight. And the new remodel inside is beautiful! 10/10 my favorite place to be. I highly recommend the Tacos De Birria and my husband loves the Carnitas Don Juan, but we have had nearly everything on the menu and you honestly can't go wrong. Everything is delicious.
