Greeted and seated quickly during dinner time. Service staff was nice and quick. It's a little bit more on the open end for the restaurant layout. You hear some chatter, but you can hear the person across from you just fine. The food was amazing. Exactly what you want with quick sit down Mexican food.

This town ain't big enough for two Mexican restaurants, so this one sits just before getting out of New Baden next to a railroad track. I've come to this place maybe a handful of times, and it's like every other Mexican restaurant. Once you've had one, you've had them all. But something stands out from this place. And it's the reason for the four stars. The chicken soft tacos. I just...I don't know what it is. It's either the texture or the taste or both, but I've had the chicken tacos twice now, and it's...off putting. It's not at "inedible" levels of bad, but it's enough to take you aback for a moment and let you wonder. But don't let that one little thing stop YOU from going there. It's a good atmosphere and always friendly service, so give it a shot.

Great Mexican restaurant in a strip mall. Has inside and outside seating. Very nice service. Food was good, prices are about. Or map for Mexican food. Chips are good, salsa and cheese dip taste fresh. I give the place a B+. Go on down and grab yourself a table. Enjoy!
