      I'm not coming back. The chimichanga was soggy, the chips bordering on stale, and the salad that came with my meal was topped with sour cream instead of guacamole. I've had Mexican all across the country and I've never seen that. Very disappointed with the food and service.

      Well I will start this off by saying I AM A HUGE MEXICAN FOOD LOVER. Everything about it just makes me happy. I have one place I usually go to BUT will be making the travel to Casa Leon as well because the service plus the food was just simply perfect. They have great margaritas and their cheese dip is delectable. You can tell they make their salsa fresh in house. I loved their guacamole as well. The best part is as it was coming to their closing time it was like they all came together as a family and you could just feel the love in the place. Everyone was so kind to us. We WILL be back super soon with our friends.

      PS. Their chairs are so legit. All wooden with their names engraved, just had to note that. Hey... it's the little things.

      Our second chance visit.

      I ordered a enchilada with rice and beans. Simple enough, I thought. The rice and beans were cold and the enchilada had absolutely no flavor whatsoever.

      The hubby ordered the 3 taco special with a side of rice and beans.....both ordered a drink, had our first "complimentary" small basket of chips and salsa. we also ordered queso on the side, which had separated ( had to be mwlted and mixed with water or milk).

      Total$45! Threw our leftovers away as soon as we got home.

      very disappointed

      My all time favorite Mexican restaurant in Jacksonville when I stayed nearby I ate here every week. I recommend trying their enchiladas with rice and beans. The flavors on their sauce just aren't comparable to anywhere else. 10/10

      This is a quick and convenient location on mayport road for great Mexican food. The staff was helpful and service quick. I always judge a restaurant like this on their beans and rice, and Casa Leon's stand up. The beans are flavorful and the rice is perfectly cooked. Their burritos are my favorite!

      My friend and I went here before catching a class at the comedy club on a Thursday. Despite arriving with plenty of time the service was so slow we were late. The food was alright. Had heard it was really something so hot our hopes up but generally speaking, nothing to write home about. Be advised- there were quite a few kids running around and they don't serve hard liquor to cancel them out. All in all, not the best, not the worst. I won't be heading back anytime soon.

      It is an ok place, nothing out of the ordinary. The food could be much better. The taste and the quality are average. On our last visit we ordered Fajitas Texanas with beef, chicken and shrimp, a side plate of rice, beans and Mexican salad.

      They have the best real Mexican food I've had in a long time. Everything we ordered was delicious. The staff was attentive and very friendly. The ambiance was okay, but both me and my boyfriend did not like the overhead lighting. It made the restaurant really bright. I'm craving the chili rellenos (they use problano peppers) I had just thinking about them!

      This is our new go to spot! It's small and intimate with beautiful paintings all over the walls! It's family run. Literally dad runs kitchen and makes the drinks and daughters run the tables. So cool.

      PROS: service- our waitress was hilarious and so sweet and attentive!

      Best salsa I've ever had! Homemade!! Spicy and sweet! Secret recipe dad makes!!! They sent me home with extra!

      $2.99 margaritas and long islands for happy hour 4-7 pm. OMG THE BEST MARG IVE EVER HAD! No mixer! Homemade lime mixture. So fresh and so strong!!!!!!

      Entrees were comparable to other Mexican places, but good!

      Cons: the meal ended!


      Such a great experience!!
