In Short – Casual Californian decor fits in well with the corporate types, families and couples that enjoy chimichangas, with a contemporary twist. Start with some mango shrimp and continue with huevos rancheros or Mexican salad with lime dressing. Mix it up in the festive atmosphere with some Sangria and make it a sweet finish with Mexican wedding cake or chocolate gooey buttercake.

The best!

by Hotman

This place is great! The portions are huge and the quality of their ingredients is second to none. I visit the North Raleigh location and find the staff very friendly (and accommodating to our toddler!).

Try their cheese dip!

  • Pros: Quality of Food, Quantity of Food, Friendliness of Staff

live music

by localnurse

This was my first time.

If you like quick pre-made Mexican food, don't go, but if you're looking for high quality food this is a great place. It's not as expensive as Jibarra and the quality and quantity are 100% better.

This past Tuesday night there was a live saxaphonist playing at the front of the restaurant. I don't know if they have live music regularly, but if I see that they do I will definitely go back with a few friends. I think the place would be too stark without the jazz ambiance.

Enjoyable evening.

  • Pros: hi quality food
  • Cons: sangria was too sweet, but the waiter gave us some red wine to rectify this

Fantastic!

by obama08

I'm picky. Giving anything 5 stars means I was impressed. This place was a terrific dining experience. The staff was hospitable, they were fast, and they were thorough. We ordered the guacamole, mango tacos, and quesadilla. All were exceptional. Granted this was in the early afternoon on a saturday when the restaurant was sparsley occupied so it might have been a different story during a dinner crunch. But from this on trip I have nothing but but praise. Also have to recommend the Mexican Wedding Cake for dessert, OMFG this was the BEST cake I ever had. Absolulety check this palce out.

  • Pros: Service, wonderful food
  • Cons: Don't have any this time
