Arriving right after lunch opened on a Thursday, I savored some beef chimichangas that were cooked to perfection, showcasing tender meat and vibrant spices. With attentive service, a cozy ambiance filled with lively Spanish music, and a menu featuring delicious enchiladas and inventive margaritas, this restaurant has quickly become one of my favorites that I plan to revisit soon.

We visited during the lunch rush on a weekday and both tried the beef chimichangas, which were delicious. As someone who has enjoyed Mexican cuisine from various regions, I found the beef to be tender and perfectly seasoned, while the beans and rice were also quite tasty. The attentive wait staff, pleasant ambiance, and Spanish music added to the overall experience, making it a place I look forward to revisiting soon.
