    Delicious. I'm having lunch number twelve with beef cheese quesadilla and taco and enchilada. Great food great service and I don't feel like I've been cheated. And the plate was hot . Some places can't seem to get that right .

    This is a pretty good Mexican restaurant. I've been here several times and enjoyed my entree each time. Only complaint would be that almost everytime I go my rice is old and hard. That's one of my fav things :( But other than that overall good restaurant and service.

    Horrible. Runny beans, bad quesadillas, and slow service.

    My family loves this place!!! This is our number one spot to visit when we come into town to visit our family. My husband and I always split the full order of mixed fajitas. They always have a huge portion of steak, shrimp, and chicken along with the grilled onions and green bell peppers served on a steaming skillet. We are also given a plate of refried beans, Spanish rice, pico de gallo, lettuce, cheese, and sour cream. The cheese dip is my favorite! Their cheese dip and homemade salsa can easily make my meal alone. The restaurant is always busy with customers, but I am always amazed at how quickly they serve our food. We can have a group of ten and get served our food within minutes...quick service is huge with hungry kids. =) On top of quick service, the restaurant is always clean along with their bathrooms.

    Great service, great food, great prices... My husband loves the monster burrito which is basically fajitas rolled up in the biggest burrito I've ever seen and its delicious. I like to get the chimichanga-- it's always our go-to family restaurant in oakland-- they have crayons and an activity place mat for kids to color on

    This is the very definition of average mexican food. Average price, average service, and average food. I had the carnitas dinner and the pork was cooked well but tasteless. Almost every part of the dish needed seasoning. Even the house salsa was bland.

    My wife and I have dined here periodically for over 2 years. The food is very consistently better than the average mid level Mexican fare. A good value as well. The service can be inconsistent depending on how experienced the waiter may be, but they have many long term employees and the odds are in your favor for good service and good food. This place stays busy and this location is superior to the others in Memphis having the same name.

    Great food, we tried going some where else and it didn't compare, so we started going back.

    I love this place! I lived in NM for a long time and this is the best authentic tasting Mexican food I have found anywhere in the Memphis area and believe me, I've looked! The molcajete is my favorite dish, but they also know how to do chile rellanos and tamales right! Now if they could do Sopapillas ala NM style, I'd be in heaven! The price is right and it is kid friendly. If you are looking for a "hole in the wall" type restaurant, THIS IS IT,

Mexican Cuisine

If you enjoy Taco Tuesday, then you have officially fallen in love with the Mexican Food. The main grain of Mexican cuisine is maize. Also known as corn, maize is grown for the past 9000 years after the crop was discovered by the people in Mayan civilization. Mexican empire flourished when they started growing beans, tomatoes, chili pepper, sweet potato and cactus. Till this date these ingredients are used in cooking authentic Mexican dishes and drinks.

Great use of spices, fresh chili pepper dishes like fajitas, tortilla chips, corn chips, salsa, chimichangas, burritos, nachos and quesadillas are invented in America. But when you are looking for authentic Mexican food then you must find a restaurant in the city that serves Rajas con Queso, Garbanzo in a Guajillo Chile Sauce, Pork Filled Chiles Rellenos, Chiles en Nogada, Molcajete Salsa, Pico de Gallo and Frijoles de la Olla. An eye-opening fact – Mexican don't like their food hot. They use fresh chili and other spices to create a flavor that lingers in your mouth.

Mexican food is great for those who are Gluten Intolerant as they use Corn instead of wheat in most of their dishes. Also, you can easily find many beans based Mexican dishes. Another dish which didn't get similar glory as tacos or nachos is the Mexican hot chocolate. If you love something hot on a chilly day, then go for Mexican Hot Chocolate. On merry days, you can enjoy the authentic Mexican Drinks like Tequila, Mezcal, Tecuí, Sotol, Bacanora, Charanda, Posh O Pox, Puebla and Pulque. Mexican Cuisine is for people who enjoy strong drinks and hearty meals.
