The best Mexican restaurant in AC. Excellent food, service and margaritas. They have a loyalty program that gives repeat diners a reward redeemable on their next visit. The prices are VERY reasonable and they have Happy Hour every day except Saturday from 4 to 6 PM. They do charge a fee for using a credit card, so bring your debit card or cash. I highly recommend!

We ordered all items on the happy hour menu including the red sangria. When the check came we were charged for the regular price and were told we did not specify even though our entire order was from the happy hour menu.

Always excellent, food, service and margaritas! They have a rewards program that gives 5% off on your next visit! They do add a service charge if you pay with a credit card, so pay with cash or debit card! Highly recommend the pollo acapulco, emchiladas suizas and the el jefe margarita!
