This place is incredible! Seriously they deserve thousands of five star reviews. They serve delicious food, huge portions and insanely low prices. If you haven’t ate here you’re missing out.
They served warm corn chips Woth homemade salsa. I ordered the cheese dip because, of course. The Mexicana Fajita enter was served in a siziling stone pot spilling over with shrimp, chicken, beef, chorizo, onions and peppers.
The portions were so huge. I have two more meals to take home. All this for $20!!
