Extremely nice staff. The food was delicious. Most definitely some of the best chicken fajitas I've had. The seasoning was just right, not too salty and the amount of lime they used was perfect. The service was great & the place was clean. It was nice to feel welcome. Seems like that is something hard to find nowadays. So we greatly appreciated the experience. We will definitely be back!

Always enjoy going here. The staff is friendly and the food is good. It has been a great addition to Mountain View.The only downside is that I couldn’t find a menu online, so I’m including photos of it in this review for others!

Ordered fajitas with all the toppings, chips/ salsa, rice and refried beans for my sons 21st Birthday Party. We ordered for 20 people and they gave us extra plenty of food and a good price. Gloria the manager was great! We eat here once a week, food is always good and staff is so friendly. Definitely recommended if you need food catered.

Great tasting food from a large, varied menu. Service was fast and friendly and our waiters made sure the salsa, nachos, and drinks were always topped off and full. The burro de la roqueta was the best I've ever had - the ranchero sauce, cheese, and pico de Gallo flavors really enhanced the chicken and rice in that dish.
