    Really good place to eat. I highly recommend. It's great Mexican food.

    I got the steak tacos

    I've been here 2-3 times and am ready to give three stars.  Their steak tacos are good, authentic and tasty with a nice soft corn shell.  The queso is also good and spicy but the chips are too thick and need salted!   They charge for salsa which is crazy rip off to me.  

    The last time I was there I ordered steak tacos and they gave me what I believe to be shredded pork, but I'm not sure.  It was shredded meat that was orange and greasy.  Definitely not happy with that one and my kids refused to eat it.  The employees were not too friendly either, the girls at the checkout didn't seem to want to be there.  This place is ok but not worth all the hype.  Check out Las Penas by the Dayton Mall if you want the best authentic tacos/food in town.

    Don't the exterior or a couple of the reviews fool you...there is some good food inside! I enjoyed my cheese enchiladas Rojas with rice and beans. The chips were good and the salsa had some spice to it.

    I'll make this a regular spot when visiting Dayton.

    Mexican food done up right for a good price. Carnitas Verde were quite flavorful paired with relatively bland beans and rice. The table salsa was pretty good. Service was friendly and genuine.

    They don't have margaritas but they're cool if you head next door and BYOB.

    Up to the age of 5, Mexican neighbors in San Diego fed me and gave me a home away home. This place takes me back to food they served.
    Located in a recycled chain restaurant on a somewhat forlorn commercial strip and next to a gas station/drive-thru mini-mart, there is no exterior charm - just a beat up picnic table in front, a parking lot with more potholes than cars, and  no landscaping,

    However, once you get past the rust belt façade, you enter a warm and aromatic restaurant. Smiling wait staff are extremely accommodating, bringing refills of salsa, water, tortilla chips, etc. The menu has a great variety and prices are good. I've eaten here several times. Next time I will try a burrito which could easily be shared.

    Guacamole, tamales, and tacos are great. You won't leave hungry!
