This was the best Mexican meal I've had in years. Bacon wrapped shrimp. Came with the standard rice and beans but a choice of salad or fries. I liked the onions and Ciliento coming as a side dish. The decor is what I would have expected in a restaurant in Mexico. Sturdy. The Mexican motif was carried off very well with lovely scenes on the chairs. I was the only gringo in the place - that means that the local Mexican people favor this restaurant. The source served with the chips had a nice bite, not too hot but not bland. The service was prompt and my server attentive.

Place is very cute inside, server was nice & food was yummy. We got the quesabirria tacos & enchiladas. It was nice they had a big screen TV to watch football on. We will definately come back again.

Staff was amazing! The inside of the place couldn't have been more cute, the chairs were clearly handmade and painted which I was in love with. Food tasted amazing and had so much flavor. I can't wait to come here again

We were from out of town and wanted some Hispanic food. The place was not busy at all but I saw a few takeouts. The food was delicious, but I had expected the quesabirria to have more flavors in it. Also, It was my first time trying it. The server was a young man who was very patient and enlightened us about the ingredients. XD The con was the restroom, I won't say what I saw but I just wished it was cleaned.

What a great taco spot! I stopped here after working up an appetite shopping at the nearby Gilroy outlets and I'm so glad I did! The interior has such a fun theme and is bright and colorful, as well as clean. I walked in and was immediately greeted by a friendly employee who told me I could sit wherever I wanted. After about a minute, he came by with water and chips. He kept our drinks full for the entire meal, and remained friendly throughout every interaction. And then there's the actual food!! I can be pretty picky but this place knocked my socks off! I will 100% be making up a reason why I need to return to Gilroy so I can come back here.

The most delicious Caldo de res soup! Lots of fresh veggies with fall apart beef and homemade cloud soft corn tortillas. I have never had tortilla as delicious as these. The service is always welcoming and friendly. The restaurant is colorful and fun as usual.
