“ Cute place with friendly people! Food is pretty good! Overall, the portion is on point for the price! I’ve gotten the carne asada burrito red enchilada style, and it was good! And huge! I also got the red chile con carne…. A little more disappointing that day… but not bad! Needs to be a little larger portion of meat, and the sauce was a bit more bitter, but still good! I also get the feeling they microwaved their corn tortillas in the plastic bag or something… they got SUPER tough after I tore off a piece and got it out of the plastic bag they serve them in. Good flavor, though. I can tell they either make their own or use good quality tortillas. Just need to prepare them better. Maybe just wrap in thin tin foil like other places. Cannot recommend the chile con carne, but definitely the burrito! ”
“ Ordered on line. It was easy. Picked up food no problems. Got home to eat… it was delicious! I will definitely order the chicken tacos again. Hubby liked his pork burrito and the green chili on the side. Best Mexican food we’ve found in Silver City. ”
“ We ordered menudo, cheeseburger with onion rings and quesadilla tacos with roast meat. The food was amazing. The hostess that seated us and the waitress were the absolute sweetest. The restaurant was very clean and inviting. The red chile in the menudo was a good hot. The burger was in house pressed beef and the quesadilla tacos were toasted to perfection and the meat was tender and juicy. The burger and onion ring picture posted brought us in to the restaurant but we will definitely be back. ”
“ The food was great and so was the service. The menu is HUGE…so many things to choose from. We all enjoyed our food and the creamy green chili sauce was delicious. Red was really good too and it’s spicy :) ”
“ Outstanding food, outstanding service, large selection, and fair prices is what you can expect from this cozy little Mexican restaurant. The menu is large in terms of offerings and size. The tacos are excellent both the roast beef and ground beef. The cheese enchiladas, Chile Relleno, and tamales were just as excellent. The first thing you notice is the outstanding service and the chips and red sauce that are delivered upon your sitting. The red sauce is a little on the spicy side, but addicting. Overall, the restaurant offers great food at reasonable prices. If you decide to give them a chance, I’m sure you will enjoy the dinning experience. ”
