What can i say i Love this Place it was the first mexican place i ate at, Only thing is it seems to be loosing its quality. The Complimentary Tortilla Chips they give you, are kinda flimsy and ehh compared to On The Borders Mexican Grill.

Ive Tried Many Dishes, From Enchiladas, Burritos, to Fajitas but one thing i can't forget to notice every time, is that when i get steak (which is 90% all the time i go) the steak is Flimsy and SUPER chewy. Sometimes i just have to spit it out, It has great taste but it's not cool when i have to get rid of it by putting it in my paper towel!

The Price Is Reasonable Not So Pricey at all.

Their Guacomle IS AWSOME, and So is Their Fryed Banana Ice Cream, 2 things that quality hasn't gone down on. Also on peoples birthday the staff would come out and suprise the birthday guest by slamming a Sombrero (Big Mexican Hat) on their head from behind while singing happy birthday and putting the cake infront of them, cant forget when they put cake on your nose as well. But Latlely They cut back on the big hat, dont know why ... so its no longer that fun for a Birthday person LOL.

One thing That worry's me the most is the food comes out TO! TO! Quick Like 10-15 Minutes Quick ...You start questioning yourself is it even Fresh? Dont get me Wrong It taste good but it's just, i dont think you can cook 3-4 plates in 10-15 minutes

May 5th is the Best here they always have a huge event going on for Cinco De Mayo! Specials on the beer and you can expect it to be a full house that people will be Stuffed into any little Corner.

Have been going here for years! The steak fajitas are out of this world and by far the best I've ever had. The chips and salsa are awesome and the Guacamole is a must! The best dessert there is the Fried Icecream!!! Other things that are good: Steak Burrito, Steak Quesadilla, Shrimp Rancheros, and the refried beans are great! I've gone to many others places trying to find great food and great service like this and just haven't found it.

Talking about the lacking of Mexican cuisine in Miami for obvious reasons, my brother took me for lunch here once and then on I've been coming here for Lunch Dinner a few b-days and stuff.

A pretty good I have to say original mexican  cuisine here, as soon as you walk in you feel like you are in a fancy mission style restaurant, they great you well, the seating time is very fast, and you see the faces of people walking out, they seems pretty satisfied.

It is the perfect place for a b-day lunch or b-day Dinner. the staff is very courteous and they will do anything to make you happy, nowadays going to some other restaurants feels like they don't even what you there... BUT NOT HERE!!!!!!

The Enchiladas, burritos and taco platters are reallly good, I totally recommend them, and please don't leave without having dessert, the Flan is absolutely  to die for.

I've been eating at this place lately at lunch time. Sometimes its really busy in there but I've never had to wait for a table. The service has been average to good. Again this depends on how slammed the place is.

I ate the shredded chicken burrito lunch special with a salad as a side. The burrito was good and was a nice portion. The salad was really good. It came in one of those fried corn bowls like a taco salad. The salad had avocado, tomato, cabbage, dressing. It wasn't some crappy side salad just thrown together.

Overall the place is OK for some lunch but the food taste isn't out of this world. Maybe I should try a different plate. They also make avocado fresh which I will have to try one day.

I actually ate here for the first time even though I have been here for Cinco de Mayo before. I actually found the food to be darn good. My dad is in town  and he is a very particular eater. We ended up here against his will but by the end of the night he actually enjoyed the experience. He went bananas for the chicharones and the plantains nachos. My favorite was the Mariachis that go around singing  ~ " A llorar, A llorar ... A llorar, A llorar!" ~ I love that song.
They make the guacamole fresh in the middle of the restaurant so thats pretty cool

I have a nomination for Waiter/Waitress of the year - Pierre was a great guy. Very attentive and a good sense of humor. He gave us a 10% vip discount just because.

yep, definitely more of a Tex Mex kind of gimmick than a Mexican restaurant. It is OK to get a quick bite with decent size portions, but you will not get the feel that you are in an authentic place. Just a generic run of the mill basic pseudo Mexican menu.
Of course everything tastes better a good margarita!!

I come here quite a bit and I think it is affordable and the food is OK. The service is consistently excellent and they are spot on with extra chips, salsa or a refill. The place is very large and can get noisy. It's a good place to take the kids. Don't expect authenticity or far out tastes. This is strictly gringo Mexican . With that said, I can say that I have never had a bad plate of food at his place.

Tortillas are not made fresh here, and the rice and beans (a la Mexicana) were below average. The entrees, however, were tasty. This establishment is much more Tex-Mex than it is Mexican.

Prices were very reasonable and the restaurant is HUGE, which is unusual for Mexican restaurants in Miami unless if it is a national chain.

It's an okay spot for Mexican in Miami Lakes and definitely much more affordable than nearby Los Magueyes... but I think I like the quality of the food a bit more at the more authentic, smaller and pricier Los Magueyes.

A friend of mine took me to this restaurant 3 weeks ago. I am a tex-mex fan and had heard good reviews about this restaurant so my expectations were high. I can say the taste of the food was ok. I had the chicken flautas. To be honest I've tried the flautas in other places and they taste way better. I do have to give props to the waiter, he was really nice, attentive and friendly. I don't know..not a place I would  go again, unless I'm invited.
