Mexican restaurant

Small Mexican restaurant with authentic decor and a lively atmosphere that shifts from deafening noise during large parties to a pleasant vibe afterward. Multiple TVs show sports in the bar area with comfortable booths. The place feels inviting despite its size and somewhat dark lighting.

Happy Hour runs from 3 to 6 p.m. Monday through Friday with a $12 limited menu. Options include fish tacos, shrimp tacos, chicken burrito, ceviche, chicken taquitos, and carnitas burrito, all offered at a discount compared to regular prices.

Complimentary chips come with smoky, spicy roasted salsa that packs a lot of flavor. The salsa casera stands out as spicier and better than the one served with the chips.
