Good place to go if you want some yummy Mexican food. The chips and salsa was good and tasted nice and fresh. They do happy hour as well where you get 2 margaritas for the price of one. There is a massive menu with many choices but you can’t go wrong with the pregnant burrito!

Really nice place the Spanish rice is the best I have ever had. The manager brought me a homemade kitchen salsa from the back and it was awesome. Pregnant burrito is very tasty The margaritas are a little weak but they are two for five so who cares. Chips and kitchen salsa are the best. Good service, good food. Thank you,

I remember around the time this restaurant very first opened and have eaten here on and off and their other location they used to have on Preston Highway.There are a lot of good Mexican Restaurants around the Ky ,Ohio ,Indiana are I have frequented regularly ,but this restaurant is very consistent with the quality of their food and service.I moved out of the area for some years and came back and this place has same salsas ,chips,menu and tastes,looks the same.Some of the employees even are the same ,at least one or two.I think the girl that waited on me tonight is about the prettiest,most thoughtful,polite ,considerate ,amazing server in Louisville.Most the servers at this restaurant are mostly amazing ,I just can’t imagine anyone having a bad experience in this restaurant.I have probably eaten here 200 times and had one bad experience and it wasn’t tonight.The food ,service was incredible!

My 1st time here , my wife and I wanted something new and we're craving Mexican so we have them a shot. The food was very good, the burritos were smaller than the portions that I'm used too. My wife ordered the fish tacos and I ordered the burritos one ground beef and one shredded chicken with queso on top. The service was good as well , the atmosphere was a little pedestrian and what you'd expect at a strip mall but they could go the extra mile and really turn it up a notch.

Best salsa I've had in a while..ingredients are very fresh. The 2 for 1 margaritas wasn't bad either...the chorizo dip w/fresh jalapenos was amazing. The steak fajita chimichuga was full of flavor. My husband always get the seafood fajita because it's so well prepared. Thank you for the awesome service..

Would highly recommend! There service is extremely kind and the food is always delicious. Beautiful indoor and outdoor seating. Hiden gem in Hurstbourne. Photos show my favorite the veggie quesadilla (great presentation) and burritos supremos. Also recommended the hot salsa.

Food was super good! Went after a volleyball tournament and got the fajitas with chicken. Great serving size and the chips were fresh and salsa was great! 10/10

Good place for a Medican meal. Nice atmosphere and quiet. Food was delish! The menu has some differences than most Mexican restaurants. Would definitely recommend and will go back.
