Instantly seated and the waitress was right there to get out drink orders. I had the Sopa De Mariscos and it was incredible. All the seafood in it was amazing. A Modela to wash it down with. Sadly no room for dessert.

An absolute favorite. Whenever I'm in town, this is a mandatory stop. Legit Mexican with some house specials that will have you coming back. Chips and a carafe of salsa as soon as you sit down and an extensive menu. Drink specials. Kids eat free Wednesdays. Helpful staff. I would by a t-shirt from here if they sold them!

My family was looking for a Mexican restaurant here in Lynchburg and when the first place we went to was extremely busy and packed, I found this one and saw the reviews were good. And they were right! Do not let the location of this restaurant deter you from eating here. Prices are excellent, service is good, and the food was AMAZING. I mean, you are missing out if you don't eat here.

Super quick service. Hostess was very attentive and patient. The atmosphere was great. We enjoyed ourselves. The taste of the food was wonderful. Most of the time my food outside of home can taste salty. The food here was seasoned to perfection. The pink lemonade was sweet not extremely sweet. Overall delightful experience.
